(D)epression by The Homeless Gospel Choir Guitar Chords

[Verse]
(D)
They said to give up, and you grow up
(A)
That my songs make them wanna throw up
G
That I’m not original
(A) G (D)
Or catchy, or clever, or smart

(D)
They said my guitar would sound better
(A)
(A)t the bottom of the Ohio river
G
That I should get a job
(A) (D)
(A)t the Route 51 KMart

(D)
(A)nd sometimes I think I might agree with
(A) G
My old friends that don’t call me anymore
(D)
To hang out or catch up or go drink beer

(D)
(A)nd maybe I am not the same
(A)
Thank God that I am not the same
G
(A)nd I hope to be weirder than this
(A) (D)
This time next year

G (A)
With friends like that who needs friends
(D) G
When you have seasonal depression
G (A)
In Western Pennsylvania
G
Or anywhere
(A) G (D)
You’re afraid to just be yourself

(D)
Sometimes I feel like I’m stuck here
(A)
Trapped in the wrong year
G
Like an empty pack of cigarettes
(A)
Like an endless bill called college debt

(D) (A)
(A)nd I don’t know when I first started feeling so alone
G (A)
Like how everyone else has a place and I simply don’t
(D)
(A)nd sometimes you wake up in your 30’s
(A)
Take a look around
G (A)
(A)nd realise that you’re lucky not to be a ghost in a ghost town

G (A)
With friends like that who needs friends
(D) G
When you have seasonal depression
G (A)
In Western Pennsylvania
G
Or anywhere
(A) G (D)
You’re afraid to just be yourself

(D)
Sometimes I think that I’ll die here
(A)
Sometimes that’s alright
G
Sometimes those words haunt me
(A)
(A)nd cut me like a butterknife

(D)
(A)nd if your friends are assholes
(A)
Then you’re better off alone
G (A)
Or you can go make new friends at the retirement home

(D) (A)
Or you can move to Hazelwood and I will be your friend
G (A)
(A)nd we can make a record in our brand new punk rock band

G (A)
With friends like that who needs friends
(D) G
When you have seasonal depression
G (A)
In Western Pennsylvania

(D)
Or anywhere…
G (A) (D)
(A)-ny-where
