Biography:
Courtney Barnett is an Australian singer/songwriter originally from Sydney, New South Wales; later moving to Hobart, Tasmania[/placeform] where she began performing music in 2006 before relocating to Melbourne in 2010.
Barnett puts a lot of effort into sounding effortless. Her songs are wild and wooly and wordy, her lyrics plainspoken and delivered like she’s making them up on the spot.
Barnett was originally a part of several bands, including Immigrant Union and The Olivettes before focusing on her solo work.

E A Asus4 A E A Asus4 A
[Verse 1]
E A E A Asus4 A
You always get what you want
E A E A Asus4 A
And you don't even try
E A E A
Your friends hate it when its always going your way
E A E A Asus4 A
But I'm glad that you've got luck on your side
E A E A Asus4 A
You're saying definitely maybe
E A E A Asus4 A
I'm saying probably no
E A E
You say "You sleep when you're dead,"
A
I'm scared I'll die in my sleep
E A E Asus4 A
I guess that's not a bad way to go
[Chorus]
E A E A E Asus2 E
I wanna go out but I wanna stay home
E A E A E Asus2 E
I wanna go out but I wanna stay home
[Verse 2]
E A E A Asus4 A
Why are you so eager to please?
E A E A Asus4 A
I wear my heart on my sleeve
E A E A
Gets harder in the winter, gotta be a fake or shiver
E A E A Asus4 A
It takes a great deal out of me
E A E A Asus4 A
Yes I like hearing your stories
E A E A Asus4 A
But I've heard them all before
E A E A
I'd rather stay in bed with the rain over my head
E A E A Asus4 A
Than have to pick my brain up off of the floor
[Chorus]
E A E A E Asus2 E
I wanna go out but I wanna stay home
E A E A E Asus2 E
I wanna go out but I wanna stay home
