Do You Really Like Being Alone Chords & Tabs
Do You Really Like Being Alone Chords
This is the version from the Fourteen Years of Excellence EP. Couldn't find this version
anywhere, so here it is. It sounds to me like he's strumming the guitar with his
fingers instead of a pick in the recording. So, do that. Or don't. Whatever sounds best.
G
C
So ill dig a hole in my room
D C G
From Birmingham and back again for you
C
In the end they say we’ll see the truth
D C G
What a shocking beauty we can both abuse
C
So I folded my hands into a bird
D C
The shadows made you laugh
G
They made you sunburned
C
And I stitched my faith into your shirt
D C G
To make sure nobody but me was getting hurt
C
And you love being cast as the fool
D C G
In a movie no one ever pays to sit through
C
Just calm down it will be over soon
D C G
And god I wonder what it is I’d do without you
Bm C G
Do you really like being alone?
Bm C D
Do you really like being alone?
C
La di da da da da

G
C
And the lord made me confront my past
D C G
We asked each other to explain the mess
C
I believed with enough good I’d mend
D C G
But any good I had was always simply tempered
C
And I tried hard to sing like they did
D C G
With my arms raised in the air I was praising
C
You said that when we died it would send
D C G
But even baby Jesus knew that I was faking
Bm C G
Do you really like being alone, Goddamn of course you don’t
Bm C G
Do you really like being alone?
Bm C Am
Do you really like being alone?
G
Wouldn’t blame you if you went back home
C
And got an actual job
G
And you kissed your wife and your two daughters
C
Like I wished I could
Em
And I think that we’d be free
C D G
Oh my god I think you finally feel free
Bm C G
I don’t really like being alone
God, of course I don’t
Bm C G
I don’t really like being alone
Bm C Am
I don’t really like being alone
G
I think I might just go back home
C
And get an actual job
G
Stop selling my soul to the devil
C
He buys so much merch from us
Em
And I think he’d set us free
C
Yeah I think he’d cut the chains
D G
And set you and me free
Bm C G
Do you really like being alone?
Bm C G
Cause I don’t really like being alone
Bm C Am
Do you really like being alone?
G
I think I might just go back home
C
And get an actual job
G
And tell both my redneck neighbors
C
To bring their dogs inside
Em
And I could get some sleep
C
Cause I think all I need
D
Is a decent night sleep
G
