[Cm] [Dm] I'm at my [Bb] best when I'm at [Eb] my worst
[Cm] [Dm] I'm at my [Bb] worst when it's [Eb] not rehearsed
[D] I don't wanna know the goddamn [Ab] words
I don't [Bb] wanna have to [Cm] spell it out
Don't [F] wanna mumble what I'm [Ab] trying to say
I [Bb] wanna scream it from my [Eb] foaming mouth
Shoot out [D] the lights and ride [Eb] away
[Bb]
[Eb]
[Cm] I'm at [Ab] my worst [Gm] when I'm at my [Eb] best
[Cm] [Ab] I'm at my best when [Bb] I'm [Eb] trying to look and think and talk [D] and sing and read and write like [Ab] all the rest
[Bb] We're all just trying to play [C] our roles
In [F] a play that runs at [Ab] nauseam
I [Bb] hate this damn [Eb] enlightenment
[D] We were better off [Ab] as animals
[Bb]
[Eb] Right?
[Cm] [Ab] Best [Bb] when it's from [Eb] our hips
[Cm] [Ab] From our hips we [Bb] don't give a [Eb] shit
It just [D] feels good and that's no [Ab] sin
It's [Bb] the only way to feel [C] alive
The [F] closest thing to being born [Ab] again
Hey, [Bb] big confidence job [Eb] well done
A roll [D] in the hay, a roll [Ab] around the sun
[Bb]
[Eb]
[Cm] We're at [Ab] our worst when [Bb] it's from our [Eb] lips
[Cm] [Ab] From our lips [Bb] we can't [Eb] do it
And [D] the world is falling [G] in
[Bb] From babbles of our [C] umbrellas
[F] Our words have formed a death sentence
[Ab] [Bb] And I wish that we had [Eb] never taught
Our [D] hips said it could
[Bb] I [Eb]

[Bb] [Eb]
