C/G
The books about my dad condensed
        G
And the fables to remember this
  F
I think about it all the time
    Em           F
And realize it's vain
  C/G
I feel like gasoline tonight
      G
Let's dance so close we might catch fire
  Em         
I can't be honest all the time
  F
I can't be honest all the time

Pre-Chorus-
G                            F
Life is full of promises and prophecies
G                                  F
Well life has made me famous on my knees
G                                   F
And everywhere there's amateurs and enemies
G                               F
Everywhere there's everyone but me

Chorus-
         C/G       G
She said you'll be fine
                          C/G    G
I promise that I'll leave on the light
                   F   G
What are you afraid of?
                   F   G
What are you afraid of?

Verse-
C/G                            G
I advertise my memories, low and behold humanity
  F                           Em            G
I condescend you sympathy can understand my pain
C/G                              G                
I can only hope this melody will scream across like clarity
  F      
I can't be honest all the time
  G
I can't be honest all the time

Pre-Chorus-
F                           Em
People say the army's got a home for me
F              Em
To find myself out of this rut
    F                           Em
And maybe greatness isn't in my destiny
       F                             Em
'Sides people say a lot of things so what?

Chorus-
         C/G       G
She said you'll be fine
                        C/G      G
I promise that I'll leave on the light
                  F    G
What are you afraid of?
                  F    G
What are you afraid of?

Bridge-
     C/G        G            Am
That alcohol is heavier than lead
    C/G       G           Am
And Hunter S. Thompson is dead
                C/G        G
She said you'll never have enough
          Am                G
Until the day that you wake up
    F             G
And everything is gone
    F             G
Oh everything is gone


Chorus-
         C/G       G
She said you'll be fine
                          C/G    G
I promise that I'll leave on the light
                   F   G
What are you afraid of?
                   F   G
What are you afraid of?

Verse-
C/G                            G
I advertise my memories, low and behold humanity
  F                           Em            G
I condescend you sympathy can understand my pain
C/G                              G                
I can only hope this melody will scream across like clarity
  F      
I can't be honest all the time
  G
I can't be honest all the time

     C/G        G            Am
That alcohol is heavier than lead
    C/G       G           Am
And Hunter S. Thompson is dead
                C/G        G
She said you'll never have enough
          Am                G

    F             G
And everything is gone
    F             G
Oh everything is gone
