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.

Great song here by a great band. I saw them play this live, and I know they used a
capo on some songs, but I can't remember if they did or not on this. Anyways, you
could probably put one on the third fret make it a little easier. Tab is at the bottom.
Chords:
A# 6-8-8-7-6-6 (w/ capo, G)
D# x-6-8-8-6-6 (w/ capo, C)
Cm x-3-5-5-4-3 (w/ capo, Am)
Gm 3-5-5-3-3-3 (w/ capo, Em)
INTRO: A#
VERSE: (w/ verse lead)
A#
I was born on a light-skinned road,
I was born with an engineers gold,
Gm A#
I did better than most.
A#
Now I live on a dark-skinned road,
The collectors call they try to take my gold,
Gm A#
Im happier than most.
BRIDGE:(w/lead)
F
The streets are never clean
D#
My friends they help preserve my innocence.
A# Gm
VERSE:
A#
We shared our cigarettes,
At the window we placed our bets,
Gm A#
They wouldnt call our names, Tickets hide our shame.
A#
So we laughed through glossy eyes,
Surely the gods would recognize,
Gm A#
Our good intentions, we showed them, The sweat covered our skin.
BRIDGE: (w/lead)
F
We aged a decade in an hour,
D#
We gave away our innocence.
A#
INTERLUDE:
(n.C)
So let these simple songs get caught in our heads,
Gm
Brace the frames of our worthless beds.
A#
All my life never gave a fuck,
Gm D#
Someone please wake me up.
GUITAR SOLO:
A# Gm
OUTRO:
A#
So let these simple songs get caught in our heads,
Gm
Brace the frames of our worthless beds.
A#
All my life never gave a fuck,
Gm Cm A#
Someone please wake me up.
