Meg & Dia - Fighting For Nothing Chords **Didn’t figure out the solo part though sorry! Capo 2 When I was younger I wish that I would have known better Better love makes a fat romance That lasts for more than a shoe shine I’m older Took all the words of my mother Saying it could be worse could be born with that disease Instead of catching it first So let’s go back To the first time that I met you In your Chevy With your hands stretched and me crying screaming “Mercy. Mercy.” But I know that I was put here To fight Vikings in the cold war with my arms out in the front lines singing “Dare me Dare me.” But these things take time love These things take backbone And they’ll tell you what you want to hear ’Cause they think it’s better better But you better know how to point out the liars You’ve got to weigh your wars Make sure you’re not fighting for nothing nothing Are you fighting for nothing nothing? It feels like this world has Been growing slowly upside down Maybe I should move to China and straighten this mess out Maybe I’ll be a poet Watch all the sky for falling words And write about my grandma’s curtains Or the lady who put the Chinese buffet in her purse I’ve got my mouth It’s a weapon It’s a bombshell It’s a cannon I’ve got my words I won’t give them Mercy Mercy Well these things take time love These things take backbone And they’ll tell you what you want to hear ’Cause they think it’s better better But you better know how to point out the liars You’ve got to weigh your wars Make sure you’re not fighting for nothing nothing Are you fighting for nothing nothing? DURING SOLO: 2x C#m (one strum each) I’ve got my words I hope they hurt you I hope they scar you I hope they heal you I hope they cut you open make you see you’ve been warring For all the wrong reasons Make you see that some things Are worth bruising for Make you see that your name Is your honor code Make you see that your hands You’re accounted for Pick and choose where your sweat And your blood will go Make you see your life’s not To be lived alone Run their spit through your hair You’re worth nothing Nothing These things take time love These things take backbone And they’ll tell you what you want to hear ’Cause they think it’s better better But you better know how to point out the liars You’ve got to weigh your wars Make sure you’re not fighting for nothing nothing Well these things take time love These things take backbone And they’ll tell you what you want to hear ’Cause they think it’s better better But you better know how to point out the liars You’ve got to weigh your wars Make sure you’re not fighting for nothing nothing Are you fighting for nothing nothing?
