OKAY, I BELIEVE YOU, BUT MY TOMMY GUN DON’T Guitar Chords by Brand New

[Verse 1A]

Dm F A#
I am heaven sent,
Dm F A#
don’t you dare forget
Dm F A# Dm
I am all you ever wanted,
A# F Dm
what all the other boys all promise
F A# Dm F A#
Sorry I told, I just needed you to know
Dm F A# Dm F A#
I think in decimals and dollars, I am the cause to all your problems
C Am F D5
Shelter from cold, we are never alone
C Am F D5 C#+
Coordinate brain and mouth, then ask me what it’s like to have myself so figured out
C
I wish I knew

[Verse 2]

Dm F A#
Dm F A#

Dm F A#
I hope this song starts a craze,
Dm F A#
the kinda song that ignites the airwaves.
Dm F A# Dm
the kinda song that makes people glad to be where they are,
F A#
with whoever they’re there with
Dm F A#
This is war,
Dm F A#
every line is about who I don’t wanna write about anymore
Dm F A# Dm
Hope you come down with something they can’t diagnose,
F A#
don’t have the cure for.
C Am F D5
Holding on to your grudge, oh, it’s so hard to have someone to love
C Am F D5 C#+
Keeping quiet is hard, ’cause you can’t keep a secret if it never was a secret to start
C
At least pretend you didn’t wanna get caught

[Chorus 1] (Play open chords if you’re playing acoustic/clean, and power chords if you play distorted)
F A#/F
We’re concentrating on falling apart
Dm A#/F
We were pretenders, we’re throwing a fight
Dm F
I just wanna believe, just wanna believe,
Gm/D A#/F
I just wanna believe in us

{Verse 2]
Dm F A# Dm F A#
Oh, we’re so c-c-controversial
Dm F A# Dm F A#
We are entirely smooth. We admit to the truth, we are the best at what we do,
Dm F A# Dm F A# Dm
and these are the words you wish you wrote down, this is the way you wish your voice sounds
F A# Dm F A# Dm
Handsome and smart, oh, my tongue’s the only muscle on my body that works harder than my heart,
F A# Dm F A# C
and it’s all from watching TV, and from speeding up my breathing
Am F D5 C Am
Wouldn’t stop if I could, oh, it hurts to be this good. You’re holding on to your grudge,
F D5 C#+ C
oh, it hurts to always have to be honest with the one that you love, to let it go

[Chorus 2] x2 (Open/power chords)
F A#/F
We’re concentrating on falling apart
Dm A#/F
We were pretenders, we’re throwing a fight
Dm F
I just wanna believe, just wanna believe,
Gm/D A#/F
I just wanna believe in us

[Bridge] (Two strings only, palm muted)
Dm F A# Dm F A#
This is the grace only we can bestow. This is the price you pay for loss of control.
Dm F A#
This is the break in the bend. This is the closest of calls.
Dm F A#
This is the reason you’re alone. This is the rise and the fall!

[Chorus 3] x2 (Open/power chords)
F A#/F
We’re concentrating on falling apart
Dm A#/F
We were pretenders, we’re throwing a fight
Dm F
I just wanna believe, just wanna believe,
Gm/D A#/F
I just wanna believe in us
