[Verse 2]
G                       C                 GI'll always struggle to think of you in a harsh way
                 GI know that it's weird
            Am                    GBut I still see you for the human beneath
G                    C                      GI wish that I was in love with your endless bullshit
                        GBut I'm a 'heart-in-the-gutter' type
  Am                   GAsleep on a stranger's knee

[Verse 3]
G                       C                    GI'm getting used to the sleepless hours from sundown
             G                   AmThe terrible dreams that lead me inward
            GTo terrible truths
          GBut in my blood
     C             GSome electric holy yearning
           G            Am             GCarries an impulse to get shitfaced on you

[Chorus]
G                 CTell me how I can do this thing
        GTell me how I can help this thing go easily
         Am           G'Coz I'm trying, honeybee

G                 CTell me how I can beat this thing
        GTell me how I can make this beast die easily
   Am            GGoddamn it, honeybee

[Verse 4]
G                     C                     GAnd get a load of the kid in the Gang Green t-shirt
              GThey were the gateway band
  Am                        GA pastor and the teacher to me
G                  C                           GI used to wanna be real with the things they believed in
                     GBut since we've been talking
        Am                GI'm not sure if I believe anything

[Verse 5]
G                  C                        GTake a look at the girl with the long range rifle
                 GThe one with the crew cut
      Am                       GShe reminds me of a version of you
G               C                   GLaying low in a field some place in Mosul
       G             Am                   GWholly emulsified by fear and aversion to truth

[Chorus]
G                   CWhen did everything get this weird?
        GHow the fuck did it start?
G            CDid you ever believe in me?
       GWas it always so hard?

G                 CTell me how I can do this thing
        GTell me how I can help this thing go easily
         Am           G'Coz I'm trying, honeybee

[Bridge]
GThe line is close
    C              GThe wait is hardly normal
        GSo just be real
Am                 GIn any way you can be
             GThe heart is closed
    C              GBut keep me in the open
    G Am                   G'Coz I deserve better than this
GThe line is close
    C              GThe wait is hardly normal
        GSo just be real
Am                 GIn any way you can be
             GThe heart is closed
    C              GBut keep me in the open
    G Am                   G'Coz I deserve better than this
