You wanna make it right, but now it's too late
                                     B       Db  Ebm
My peanut butter chocolate cake with Kool-Aid
                           B   Db  Ebm
I'm trying not to waste my time

The fact that they didn’t even care to censor the lyrics, while they censor way less offensive words in their other songs is just unacceptable…how come they don’t realise that?

-4 sounds really cool and is super easy if you throw in a Gbm after the A, like
G A
Daylight
Gbm Bm G A
I wake up feelin’ like you won’t play right
(Let’s see if this lines up properly)
