Semi-Charmed Life

[Intro]
G D Dsus4
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
C
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
G D Dsus4
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
C
Doo-doo-doo


[Verse 1]
G
I'm packed and I'm holding, I'm smiling,
D Dsus4 C
She's living, she's golden, she lives for me

She says she lives for me
G D Dsus4
Ovation her own motivation
C G
She comes around and she goes down on me
D Dsus4
And I make her smile like a drug for you
C
Do ever what you want to do
G
Coming over you
D Dsus4
Keep on smiling what we go through
C
One stop to the rhythm that divides you


[Pre-Chorus]
G D Dsus4 C
And I speak to you like the chorus to the verse
G
Chop another line like a coda with a curse
D Dsus4 C
Come on like a freak show takes the stage

We give them the games we play she said


[Chorus 1]
G D Dsus4 C
I want something else
G
To get me through this
D Dsus4 C
Semi-charmed kind of life baby, baby
G D Dsus4 C
I want something else, I'm not listening
G D Dsus4 C
when you say good---bye


[Post-chorus]
G D Dsus4
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
C
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
G D Dsus4
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
C
Doo-doo-doo


[Verse 2]
G
The sky it was gold, it was rose
D Dsus4 C
I was taking sips of it through my nose

And I wish I could get back there
G
Some place back there
D Dsus4
Smiling in the pictures you would take
C
Doing crystal meth will lift

you up until you break
G D
It won't stop I won't come down
Dsus4 C
I keep stock with a tick-tock

rhythm, a bump for the drop
G
And then I bumped up
D Dsus4
I took the hit that I was given
C
Then I bumped again

Then I bumped again, said


[Pre-Chorus]
D C
How do I get back there to
D
The place where I
C
fell asleep inside you?
D C
How do I get myself back to
D
The place where you said


[Chorus 1]

G D Dsus4 C
I want something else
G
To get me through this
D Dsus4 C
Semi-charmed kind of life baby, baby
G D Dsus4 C
I want something else, I'm not listening
G D Dsus4 C
when you say Good---bye


[Verse 3]

G D
I believe in the sand
C
beneath my toes
The beach gives a feeling
G
An earthy feeling
D
I believe in the
C
faith that grows
And the four right
G D Dsus4
chords can make me cry
C
When I'm with you I
G
feel like I could die

And that would be
D Dsus4 C
all right, all right


[Bridge]
D
and when the plane came in
C D
She said she was crashing
C
The velvet it rips in
D
the city we tripped
C
On the urge to feel alive
G
But now I'm struggling

to survive
D
Those days you were wearing
C
That velvet dress
D
You're the priestess
C
I must confess
D
Those little red panties
C
They pass the test
G (hold)
Slide up around the belly face down on the mattress

D C
One
D C
And you hold me
D C
and we're broken
G
Still it's all that I

wanna do just a little now


[Verse 4]
G D
Feel myself head
Dsus4 C
made of the ground

I'm scared I'm not coming
G D Dsus4 C
down, no no, and I won't
G D Dsus4
run for my life
C
She's got her jaws now
G
locked down in a smile
D Dsus4 C
But nothing is alright, alright


[Chorus 2]
G Dsus4 C
I want something else
G Dsus4
To get me through this
C
life, baby
G Dsus4 C
I want something else

I'm not listening
G Dsus4 C G/B Am
when you say goodbye
C G/B Am
goodbye
C G/B Am
goodbye
G D Dsus4 C G D Dsus4 C
goodbye


[Post-chorus]
G D Dsus4
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
C
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
G D Dsus4 C
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo


[Outro]
G
The sky it was gold it was rose
D Dsus4 C
I was taking sips of it through my nose

And I wish I could get back there
G
Some place back there
D Dsus4 C
in the place you used to start
G D Dsus4
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
C
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo

G D Dsus4 C
I want something else

C G/B Am (hold)
