                  Csus2  G
When I was in grade six
            Csus2                                               G
I used to hold open the door for a girl and she called me a wimp
                   C              C/B - Am                         G
She said there just isn't no need to be so fucking polite
             C       C/B - Am                        G
I politely agreed with her           I think she was right
      Am                         G
It just never entered my mind
         Am                                                G    C - C/B - Am - G
That a twelve year old came down to choosing sides
(with fill 1)   Csus2 - G
You said that I'd die if I had nothing to do
        Csus2                            G
Put a drink in my hand and I'd talk to anything that moves
           C            C/B                     Am                              G
I just refused to give you what you think would make things right
                C    C/B                    Am             G
And just to find hate when you've lost the will to fight

Am                                                   G
And would it be really in touch with the times 
   Am                                     G             C - C/B - Am - G
To put somebody down by choosing sides
CHORUS
              C                  D
And she said show us them teeth give us them braces
C                                            D

        D - D/C# - C
faces
          G          Am    C/B   C                       C/B - Am
I could make you feel even half worthwhile just please don't ask me 
        G
to smile
 (with fill 2)          Csus2 - G
And times when it still feels right
  Csus2                              G
I hold open the door for a girl or back down from a fight
           C              C/B - Am                         G
If there just isn't no need to be so fucking polite
   C            C/B        Am                    G
At least it helps us sleep easier at night

Am                              G
It just never enters my mind
     Am                                    G
That ever should come down to choosing sides
REPEAT CHORUS
          G          Am     C/B      C
I could prove to you that a doer don't get hurt
     C      C/B Am   C     G
Just please don't ask  me to smile
