My Racing Thoughts Chords
I am nearly sick and tired of this song because I've listened to this song on loop
for three hours now trying to get the right chords...but it's Jack's Mannequin so
I won't be sick of it for too long (: Enjoy! And I hope these are correct. I just
did it by ear. But definitely comment if I did anything wrong or you have any suggestions! (:
Standard tuning
No capo
Intro:
F C Am G x2
C
She's a black cat
F C
hanging 'round my doorstep
I'll need all day tomorrow
F C
to recover from today
I was boxing with my shadow
F C
At a stoplight when the clocks changed
F
It was midnight I was mixed up
G C
When she called to drag the lake
F C
I think I'm running short on inspiration
G
She's running long on borrowed time
F
We break with speed
C G
That girl can read my racing thoughts
F
She asks the questions
C
I take the floor
G
She takes her shots
F C
Taught her a lesson
Am G
About a forced confession
F
We break with speed
C G
That girls can read my racing thoughts
F C Am G
My racing thoughts
F C Am G
My racing thoughts
C
So I'll try to keep her steady now
F C
But steady's not her strong suit
I was raised going to church
F C
But couldn't practice what they preached

So I'm hiring a DJ
F C
For the eve of our destruction
F
It was midnight I was mixed up
G C
When she found me on the beach
F C
I think I'm running low on inspiration
G
She's running long on borrowed time
F
We break with speed
C G
That girl can read my racing thoughts
F
She asks the questions
C
I take the floor
G
She takes her shots
F C
Taught her a lesson
Am G
About a forced confession
F
We break with speed
C G
That girls can read my racing thoughts
F C Am G
My racing thoughts
F C Am G
My racing thoughts
(Interlude with the “mmmmmm”s. Strum once for each.)
