Biography:
The Menzingers originally formed after the dissolution of Bob And The Sagets, a band local to the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre area of Pennsylvania. With the addition of Greg Barnett the band recorded a demo/self-released album "A Lesson In The Abuse Of Information Technology" in 2006.
Shortly thereafter they were signed by Go-Kart Records and re-recorded the songs from "A Lesson" and re-released their album with the addition of some new tracks.

[Intro]
Bm7 G5 (x2)
Bm7
[Verse]
Bm7
It's the little things my mind commits
G5
To etch behind my eyelids
Bm7
Like getting stoned when we wake up
D Asus4
Coffee grounds and coffee cups
Bm7
Your silhouette in high top sneakers
G5
And hardcore from laptop speakers
Bm7
The classics to the more obscure
D Asus4 Bm7
From Minor Threat to your old roommate's band
Bm7
Like a kaleidoscope admiring years
G5
I navigate around your tattoos
Bm7
Said you got that one on a whim
D Asus4
when you were breaking up with him
Bm7
And that Matryoshka Russian doll
G5
The largest shell from big to small
Bm7
What a way to start anew
D Asus4 D
To shed your skin and find the old you
[Chorus]
D G D
Everybody wants to get famous
G Bm
But you just want to dance in a basement
G Bm
You don't care if anyone is watching
G D
Just as long as you stay in motion
G D
We put miles on these old jean jackets
G Bm7
Got caught up in the drunk conversations
G5 Bm7
But after the party, it's me and you
G5 Bm7
After the party, it's me and you
[Verse]
Bm7 G5
The new-old look on everything we see
Bm7 D Asus4
From high upon this rooftop over South Philly
Bm7 G5
To the nights we lose our self control
Bm7
From the sex, from the drugs,
D Asus4 Bm7
from the rock and roll
[Chorus]
Bm G Bm
Everybody wants to get famous
G D
But you just want to dance in a basement
G D
You don't care if anyone is watching
G D
Just as long as you stay in motion

Got caught up in the drunk conversations

But after the party, it's me and you
