Capo on the second fret

(You don't *have* to play it with a capo, but it'd be much harder)

(Also, Johnny plays it with the high-E tuned to an F#, but that

 only matters in the solo, so we all don't *have* to do it)

Verse:

F#5			    D5

I'll open up my head awhile 

Its been dead for years 

F#5			     D5  A5

Musta been a victim of my peers

One is for my happiness 

    D5

The other for my health

The last is something bigger than myself

I ain't the only one to say



(verse)

I'm talkin' to myself again 

I'll just start a fight 

Nobody can prove me wrong, I'm right 

Anti-hero idol with a suicide excuse 

A thousand other suckers will try and fill your shoes

Little pictures in my head are turnin' inside out again 

'Cause fuckin' up takes practice I feel I'm well rehearsed 

Because the past is a bully and the futures even worse 

You tell me what you fear 'cause I can feel it like a curse



(verse)

Well, you used to be a folk singer, now you're just a joke singer 

Ain't no smokin' dope singer, swingin from a rope singer



(chorus)

I ain't the only one, I ain't the only one 

I ain't the only one to say
