Em                  G                    C          Em
   He is alive and kicking and screaming.  Calls it gymnastics, calls it 
   G     C           Em                          G                 C
velocity.  You spend   twenty years climbing and never change your mind or 
          Em                                             G
change direction.  And you call it the path of least resistance you have 
C                       D(straight to chorus)
everything you'll ever need.


Chorus1:
-------
Each bar represents the same timing as the intro/verse - 4 beats.
The chorus lyrics enter on the third beat of the first bar of each chord.

D               |                              | Em 
     So you sing if you can't beat them, join them.
                 |                           | D
All the way up to your floor.  Memorize and repeat it.
                    | C
And sing it like you mean it.

   Repeat this pattern twice in each bar of chorus


Verse2:
-------
Em                               G                   C                   Em
  They are talking to me and I'm nowhere to be found.  There's somewhere else I 
                       G      C               Em
had to be, call it necessity, mutiny, entropy.  They think I'm down they tell me 
G                  C Em                                          G
I should brighten up.  That's just 'cause they don't know an explosion when they 
C
see one.


Chorus2:
-------
D  |                                           | Em
  And they sing if you can't beat them, join them.
                  |                          | D
All the way up to your floor.  Memorize and repeat it.
                    |                           | Em
And sing it like you mean it all the way home to your front door.
                   | D                 | C
Yeah you'd better believe it and sing it  like you mean it.
