Key: G
Introduction:
G D G D
Oh, the periphery
G D G D
They throw good parties there
G D G D
Those peripheral idiots
G D G D
Always have a bite to bear
A D
Bear it if you can
A D
If you really want to
G D G D
Have them celebrate your name
G D G D
Have them forge you a pedigree and then you'll be
G D G D
Left to run the races lame
A D
Run it if you want
A D
If you think it's worth it
G D Em
But not with me
Bm C
Cause I don't appreciate
G Bm Em
People who
Bm C
Don't appreciate
G Bm Em C
All that loving must've been lackin' something
Em Bm Em G
If I got bored tryin' to figure you out
G Bm
You let me down
Cm G
I don't even like you anymore at all
{Continues as for first verse and Chorus}
G D G D
Oh, the periphery
G D G D
I lost another one there
G D G D
He found a prettier girl than me
G D G D
With a more even-tempered air
A D
And if he wants her, he should get her
A D
Cause I think he thinks she's worth it
G D G D
And maybe they'll move from the periphery
G D G D
By themselves, or on a plot of land
G D G D
And I'll care in a different capacity, I'll just be
G D G D
Hoping he makes a good family man
A D
And if he finds himself yearning
A D
For his throne on the silly side
A D
Nothing wrong as long as he's learning
A D
Besides, you can take it up with his brethren
D G D Em
Or with his bride, just not with me
Bm C
Cause I don't appreciate
G Bm Em
People who
Bm C
Don't appreciate
G Bm Em C
All that loving must've been lackin' something
Em Bm Em G
If I got bored tryin' to figure you out
G Bm
You let me down
Cm G
I don't even like you anymore at all
