All This Useless Energy by Jeff Rosenstock Guitar Chords
[Intro]
G B C Am
G B C Am
[Verse]
G
Darkness holds
Bm
Begging me to lose control
C Am G
We wrestle it back and forth ‘€˜til urban silence
G
Cuts through night
Bm
With a scalpel for the light
C Am
That bleeds through the margins
G D
And leaves me semi-conscious
[Chorus]
Em C
I haven’t found the rhythm yet
Em C
To anchor down my life
Am C G
I didn’t know I needed one
Em Am
To hold me through the night
[Intro]
G B C Am
[Verse]
G
Ain’t it great
Bm
Smashing through the interstate
C Am
Where we guess the futures of
G
Our concurrent strangers
G Bm
They’re on their way to the doctor or to raise
C Am G
Grandkids of young twenty-somethings and teenagers
[Chorus]
Em C
I’m worried of abandoning
Em C
The joys that framed my life
Am C G
But all this useless energy
Em Am
Won’t hold me through the night
[Bridge]
G
Oh please
Am
You’re not fooling anyone
Bm C
When you say you tried your best
Am G Am
‘€˜cause you can’t be your best anything
C D
When you can’t get any rest
G
Oh please
Am
You’re not fooling anyone
Bm C
When you say you tried your best
Am G Am
‘€˜cause you can’t be your best anything
C D
When you can’t get any rest
[Chorus]
Em C
I’m worried of abandoning
Em Cm
The joys that framed my life
Am C G
But all this useless energy
Em Am
Won’t hold me through the night
Em Am
Won’t hold me through the night
Em
Won’t hold me through
Em Am G
Won’t hold me through the night
