Intro: G5 - C5 - G5 - C5 - G5
C5 G5
When I was in grade six
C5 G5
I used to hold open the door for a girl and she called me a wimp
C5 C5 - A5 G5
She said there just isn't no need to be so fucking polite
C5 C5 - A5 G5
I politely agreed with her I think she was right
A5 G5
It just never entered my mind
A5 G5 C5 - C5 - A5 - G5
That a twelve year old came down to choosing sides
(with fill 1) C5 - G5
You said that I'd die if I had nothing to do
C5 G5
Put a drink in my hand and I'd talk to anything that moves
C5 C5 A5 G5
I just refused to give you what you think would make things right
C5 C5 A5 G5
And just to find hate when you've lost the will to fight

And would it be really in touch with the times
A5 G5 C5 - C5 - A5 - G5
To put somebody down by choosing sides

And she said show us them teeth give us them braces

faces
G5 A5 C5 C5 C5 - A5
I could make you feel even half worthwhile just please don't ask me
G5
to smile
(with fill 2) C5 - G5
And times when it still feels right
C5 G5
I hold open the door for a girl or back down from a fight
C5 C5 - A5 G5
If there just isn't no need to be so fucking polite
C5 C5 A5 G5
At least it helps us sleep easier at night

Just please don't ask me to smile
