Start Jamming...
[Bm] I just got back from speaking to the treatment center and I can't tell you [F#] what the young lady said
But I'll just tell you that it was shocking [Bm] some of the things that she had been [B] through
Life is sometimes [F#] pretty cruel to people and sometimes you [C#] don't know what else to do
I mean, I ain't got no stones to [F#] throw after hearing that [A#] story.
I'm like, I would have wanted to get high [A] too
And then one of the counselors said
He said, you know, honey
[E] She said, how'd that make you feel?
And she [N] said, and the one little tear come up, she said, I didn't feel nothing.
She wiped [D] her words, I didn't feel nothing
[A] He said, you look mad to me
[Bm] They used to say psychology was bullshit until I went to rehab.
[E] Psychology is awesome, man.
Psychiatry is good shit
[A] [N] He said, you look mad to me.
She said, well I might be a little mad.
He said, well listen
If all you got's a hammer, you're gonna treat the whole world like a nail
You got more emotions than just anger [G] and it's okay to [F#] use them and then he said
[G#] Because if you push it down it [Em] comes out sideways
She said, he missed [C] me neither that shit happened, [F#] but he said that and I thought I was gonna lose it right in front of everybody
I've always struggled [A] with fear.
It's always been a big problem of mine and anytime just about it just about any time I'm [F#m] mad
[G] You can just say what are you afraid of because it goes back to that and that's what this song is about
And it's deeply personal
But i've never been one [D#] to hide my feelings or anything from or be afraid to vent in [E] front of you people and you seem to
[A#] Be okay with it.
So here comes [A] another one
[F#] [Bm]
[F#m] [D]
[A] If I could buy myself a conscience
[Bm] It wasn't broken
[D] Me and every fence I drove my heart [A] headed through
We lock all the doors.
I wish [Bm] I never opened
[D] I learned the things I wish I never [A] knew
Then it came out through the bottle
[Bm] It came out through my [F#m] fists
[D] Came out way too early.
I wish [A] it never did
Push [F#] it down.
It comes [F#m] out sideways
[A] Push [E] it down.
It [F#m] comes out sideways
[D]
[A] [F#m]
Sideway
[A] I have days where it just snows above [Bm] the water
[D] Keeping together while I fall [A] apart
I have moments when I act just [Bm] like my father
I have moments when I act like my father
[F#m]
[D] The only man who ever broke my [A] heart
And it comes out in my silence
[Bm] Sometimes I'm wanting tears
[F#m] Comes [D] out the sky is his anger, [A] but it's really fear
Push it down.
It comes out [Bm]
sideways
[A] Push it down.
It [Bm] comes out sideways.
Yes, it does
[F#m]
Bit [E] of road turn the [D] highway
[A] [E] Push it down.
It comes [Bm] out sideways
[A]
[E] [Bm]
[F#m] [D] [A]
Push it down
[Bm]
[A]
Push it down
Push it down
[Bm] Push
[A] it [E] down
[Bm] Push [F#m] [F#] it [D] [A]
down
[F#] [A] [E]
[Bm]
