Key: G
Introduction: G G D C Bm D G D
Em Am
Picture yourself in the living room
G
Your pipe and slippers set out for you
Bm
I know you think that it ain't too far
Em C
But I hear the call of a lifetime ring
C D G
Felt the need to get up for it
Am
Oh, you cut out the middleman
Bm
Get free from the middleman
C G
You got no time for the messenger
C D G
Got no regard for the thing that you don't understand
C Bm
You got no fear of the underdog
D
That's why you will not survive
Em C
I want to forget how conviction fits
D G
But can I get out from under it?
Bm
Can I gut it out of me?
C G
It can't all be wedding cake
Am
It can't all be boiled away
Bm
I try but I can't let go of it
Bm
I can't let go of it
C G
'Cause you don't talk to the water boy
C D G
And there's so much you could learn but you don't want to know
C Bm
You will not back up an inch ever
D
That's why you will not survive
Em Am
The thing that I tell you now
D G D
It may not go over well
Em Am
And it may not be photo op
D G D
In the way that I spell it out
C Bm
But you won't hear from the messenger
C
Don't wanna know 'bout something that you don't understand
Bm
You got no fear of the underdog
D
That's why you will not survive
