Standard (EADGBE)

 (I can't get them up,

I can't get them up,

I can't get them up at all)

Hey, ho, let go

 Good morning, killer king, you're a star

 That's gorgeous, hold it right where you are

 The weather's kind of lousy today

 So what, oh, what, oh, what’ll we play?

 Stratocaster strapped to your back

 It's a semi-automatic like Dad's

 He taught you how to pause and reset

 And that’s about as far as you get

 So what’s the use in going outside?

 It's so depressing when people die in real life

 I'd rather pick up right where we left

 Making out to faces of death, ooh

 Making out to faces of death

 And I could save you, baby, but it isn't worth my time

 And I could make you chase me for a little Price is Right

 It’s a hit, but are you actually sure

 The targets in the crowd are a blur

 The people screaming just like they should

 But you don't even know if you're good, ooh

 You don't even know if you're good

 So tie them up and feed them the sand

Try hard, tell us using your hands

 A picture's worth a million words

 And that way nobody gets hurt, ooh

 And that way nobody gets hurt

I could save you, baby, but it isn't worth my time

 And I could make you chase me for a little Price is Right

 (Woo-ooh-ooh

 Woo-ooh-ooh

 Woo-ooh–ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)

 You’re my guitar hero

 You’re my guitar hero

 You’re my guitar hero

 You’re my guitar hero

 Hey

X marks the box in the hole in the ground

 That goes off at a breath, so careful, don't make a sound

X marks the box in the hole in your head

 That you dug for yourself, now lie in it

 Shut up about all of that negative shit

 You wanted to make it, and now that you're in

 You shut your eyes and flip the cassette

 And that’s about the time that they hit, ooh

 And that’s about the time that they hit

 What the fuck is up with this shit?

 It's certainly not worth getting upset

 His hands are gone, and most of his head

 And just when he was getting so good

 Just when he was getting so good

I could save you, baby, but it isn't worth my time

 'Cause even if I saved you, there's a million more in line

 (Woo-ooh-ooh

 Woo-ooh-ooh

 Woo-ooh–ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)

 You’re my guitar hero

 You’re my guitar hero

 You’re my guitar hero

 You’re my guitar hero

 You’re my guitar hero

Oh
