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]

[Verse]
G Cadd9
I was staring through the stained glass
G Cadd9
Into the procession of a black mass
Em Cadd9 G
Saw how subject at the altar wants their life back
G Cadd9 G
The view from here to there's a lot like wilting flowers
Cadd9
It's bored beyond repair and unfit for an altar
Em Cadd9 G
It's strange relating with the lamb to the slaughter
[Chorus]
Cadd9 Dsus4 Cadd9
But hey, do you really want to throw it away?
Dsus4 Cadd9
Do you really want to throw it away?
Dsus4 G
I'd do anything to make you stay
[Verse]
G Cadd9
We used to want to take the back roads
G Cadd9
But now we found a distance shorter
Em Cadd9
You used to call me darling
Em Cadd9
Now you prefer more formal
G Cadd9
We used to get high and stare at the moon
G Cadd9
And wonder how long it would take to walk to
Em Cadd9 G
But now that's like the distance between me and you
[Chorus]
Cadd9 Dsus4 Cadd9
But hey, do you really want to throw it away?
Dsus4 Cadd9
Do you really want to throw it away?
Dsus4 G
I'd do anything to make you stay
[Outro]
G Cadd9
For just a little, just a little bit longer
G Cadd9
For just a little, just a little bit longer
Em Cadd9
For just a little, just a little bit longer
Em Cadd9 G
For just a little, just a little bit longer
