Altitude This Party Sucks

Tom: B

E                          B
I can’t speak for anybody else
                    A
I only represent myself

But if I had to say something,
                            E 
I’d say this party really sucks! 

                           B
And if you wanted to come here
                            A
Then why did you bring me along?
                                                       E
Now I’m sitting in this corner pretending I know this song 

[PD-C HORUS]
                      B
Am I saying the wrong thing? 
                         A
Am I wearing the wrong thing? 
A
Am I saying the wrong thing while wearing the wrong thing?
[regular strumming]
   E   
Oh no

[CHORUS]
E                 B
  You had me on watch 
                   A
I wish that you’d stop 
                       E
I’ve been knocking on wood.
             E
Then there’s me
                B
In my worried shell
                A
You know me so well
                   E
But not like you should

[VERSE 2]
(back to barred strumming)
E
  Now you are sitting there,
      B           
Your hair looks just like Gwen Stefani’s
A
You are wearing your tight jeans that you liked more before you met me 
E
But I never said a thing!
  B
I bit and bound my tongue!
           A                                                                 E
Now you’re making out with someone else in front of me like do you think I’m dumb?

[PD-C HORUS]
                          B
And am I saying the wrong thing?
                         A                        
Am I wearing the wrong thing?
A
Am I saying the wrong thing while wearing the wrong thing? 
   E
Oh no 

[CHORUS]
(regular strumming)
E               B
You had me on watch
                   A
I wish that you’d stop
                       E
I’ve been knocking on wood
             E
Then there’s me 
               B
In my foolish shell
               A
You know me so well 
                  E
But not like you should

And I would, if you would only ask
                   E
So, why don’t you ask? 
                        B
We usually always get along
                         A
I usually only speak in song
                             A                             E
If only you could speak in song, then for sure we’d get along
                              B
‘cause I am just the same as you
                            A
And I get just as restless too, but it’s about the altitude not who is climbing

E                            B
It’s about the altitude not who is climbing up, oh 
A                           A
It’s about the altitude not who is climbing up, oh 
E                            B
It’s about the altitude not who is climbing up, oh 
A                           A
It’s about the altitude not who is climbing up, oh
E                            B
It’s about the altitude not who is climbing up, oh 
A                            A
It’s about the altitude not who is climbing up, oh
E                            B
It’s about the altitude not who is climbing up, but
A
I would never take you to a party if it sucked
         E
And it sucked.
