Kunci Gitar Conor Oberst - Common Knowledge

C/G                            C/B  
He's my friend but he's no friend to me
C                      C/B    
Ask him why, he'll tell you casually
F           
Washed up, bitter, broken, busted
G
Backstabbed everyone he trusted
C                           F
Says he sees what no one else can see
G
And if I had half his guts I'd want it
F
To chase that fatalistic comet
C                       F
Die young in the dark; that's poetry
        Dm            G
But it was not to be, it was not for me

C - C/B   - C/B     [x2]

C/G                            C/B  
He's always sad but I've never seen him cry
C/G                            C/B  
When he comes to, sure he'll apologize
F
Find his car, assess the damage
G
Still drunk but he likes the challenge
C                       F
Hold on to his mind just like a kite
G
But a good strong win can keep you honest
F
Fill you with some common knowledge
C                            F
Things when we were young we never tried
         Dm                 G
Just figured we had time with such a long life

C - C/B   - C/B     [x2]

C/G         C/B  
Money clips, alligator shoes
C/G                             C/B  
One more dance, he's in that champagne room
F
She moves like a chocolate fountain
G
Pouring, spilling all around him
C                           F
Makes him wonder what else she can do
G
How bittersweet is love's illusion
F
Feelings that cannot be proven
C                       F
Trust me, you'll see, my aim is true
          Dm              G
I did this all for you, I've suffered long for you

C - C/B   - C/B     [x2]

C/G                         C/B  
So many times he's tried to play it straight
C/G                        C/B  
Worked and worked until his body ached
F
But a brand new life can lose its lustre
G
Troubles tend to find each other
C                     F
Call it luck or you can call it fate
G
But either way it's how it happens
F
Not the way that you imagined
      C                 F
So just go out with a bang like Hemingway
       Dm
Some will say you're brave
        G     C
Some will say you ain't
