Failure By Design

 
              
Tuning: half-step down 
 
Intro 
E C#m 
E G# 
E C#m B 
 
verse 1 
E                C#m 
Watch you on the ones and twos 
          E           G# 
Through a window in a well lit room 
         E             C#m 
Become a recluse and I blame myself 
          B 
Because I make things hard and you're just trying to help 
           E                  C#m 
And when I wake up you're the first to call 
        E                   G# 
This is one more late night basement song 
        E                     C#m 
And I'm so sore, my voice has gone to hell 
            B 
And this is one more sleepless night because 
 
Pre-Chorus 
   E                E 
We don't believe in filler, baby 
     A                  G# A B F# G# 
If I could I'd sit this out 
 
         A                                      E 
(This is over                   when I say it's over) 
         This is a lesson in procrastination, I kill myself because I'm so frustrated 
    C#m                        E                F#                           G# 
And every single second that I put it off means another lonely night I gotta race the clock 
    A                                  E 
 (I ignore it                   and it ignores me too) 
    Let's say we go and crash your car and every time I leave you go and lock the door 
     C#m                      E                        F#                   G# 
So I walk myself picking at a chip on my shoulder, I'm another day late and one year older 
     A 
It's failure by design 
 
E C#m 
 
verse 2 
            E                    G# 
And we just want sleep, but this night is hell 
    E                   C#m 
I'm sick and sunk and I blame myself 
          B 
Because I make things hard and you're just trying to help 
      E                    C#m 
I got no gas (no gas), I'm winding out my gears 
        E                   G# 
This is one more day on the verge of tears 
           E                              C#m 
And now my head hurts (head hurts) and my health is a joke 
B 
Now I gotta stop because the headphones broke 
 
Pre-Chorus 
   E                E 
We don't believe in filler, baby 
     A                  G# A B F# G# 
If I could I'd sit this out 
 
         A                                      E 
(This is over                   when I say it's over) 
         This is a lesson in procrastination, I kill myself because I'm so frustrated 
    C#m                        E                F#                           G# 
And every single second that I put it off means another lonely night I gotta race the clock 
    A                                  E 
 (I ignore it                   and it ignores me too) 
    Let's say we go and crash your car and every time I leave you go and lock the door 
     C#m                      E                        F#                   G# 
So I walk myself picking at a chip on my shoulder, I'm another day late and one year older 
     A 
It's failure by design 
 
Bridge 
E          C#m   B 
I'm out of every-thing 
E                     C#m           B          E 
No one sleeps till we get this shit out on the shelves 
               C#m   B 
It's late, I'm falte-ring 
    E               C#m        B 
But this time I got nothing to say besides 
E 
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo 
C#m          B 
(Baby,   I'm better than this) 
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo 
E 
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo 
C#m          B 
(Baby,   I'm better than this) 
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo 
E 
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo 
C#m          B 
(Baby,   I'm better than this) 
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo 
E 
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo 
G#   A  B  F#  G# 
Nothing to say besides 
 
         A                                      E 
(This is over                   when I say it's over) 
         This is a lesson in procrastination, I kill myself because I'm so frustrated 
    C#m                        E                F#                           G# 
And every single second that I put it off means another lonely night I gotta race the clock
