This is another great song by ska-core aces Telegraph, known until

recently as the Skolars. These are my version of the lyrics, and are

probably filled with mistakes, but I'm sure of the chords.

Intro: (* means played quickly)

Them and them and you could tell I was right where you were before you

reached the phone with no return. Well you're looking down at me and I'm

looking up at you and I'm thinking to myself were we just equals? Explain

to me, ha, and talk to me. Well all you do is point at me, it's such a

misery. Yeah, it's a principle the obstacles you lift but isn't it an

honor to take the next step?

Bridge(Play Bb-C(2x) with same chord formations as verse)

We'll put it in your face, but you can't hold up. You don't really care,

I'll keep it to myself then.

Why you tellin people you don't think that I belong? All that's said

tears me apart, and tell it to my face, so tell me if you can just what

it is you do. Well I ain't done yet, so I could feel rest. Well I could

be less than the person that I am, the person I became, the person you

don't run around. Screw me and fight over something someone said, but

there's just no way, that I'm gonna go now! Hey! Hey!

Then play chorus

followed by chorus chords over this:

I want feet first, you want head first (3x) yeah!

Then play chorus again, and that's it!

I hope this makes some sense to you. E-mail me with any suggestions,

comments, etc.
