[Verse 1]
C Bb6 Gm
I've been thinking about when I was
Em
trying to be your friend
Dm6
I thought it was?then,?but it wasn't,?it wasn't genuine
C Bb6
I was just so?furious but I couldn't
Gm
show you
Em
'Cause I know you and?I?know?what you can?do
Dm6
And I don't?wanna war with you, I won't afford it
You get sore even when you win
[Verse 2]
C Bb6
And you maim when you're on offense
Gm
But you kill when you're on defense
Em
And you've got them all convinced
Dm6
That you're the means and the end
All the VIPs and PYTs and wannabes
Afraid of not being your friend
[Verse 3]
C Bb6
And I've always been too smart for that
Gm
But you know what? My heart was not
Em
I took it like a kid, you see
Dm6
The cool kids voted to get rid of me
And I'm ashamed of what they did to me
What I let get done
It stole my fun, it stole my fun
[Chorus 1]
C
Fetch the bolt cutters, I've been in here too long
C
Fetch the bolt cutters, I've been in here too long
C
Fetch the bolt cutters, I've been in here too long
C
Fetch the bolt cutters
[Post-Chorus]
C Bb6 Gm Em
He sings so nice, I guess he tries (I've been thinking about when I was trying to be your friend)
Dm6
(I thought it was then, but it wasn't, it wasn't genuine)
[Chorus 2]
C
Fetch the bolt cutters, I've been in here too long
C
Fetch the bolt cutters (I've been in here too long)
C
Whatever happens, whatever happens (Whatever happens)
C
Fetch the bolt cutters, I've been in here too long
C
Fetch the bolt cutters
[Verse 4]
C Bb6
While I had not yet found my bearings
Gm Em
Those it girls hit the ground
Dm6
Comparing the way I was to the way she was
Sayin' I'm not stylish enough and I cry too much
C
And I listened because I hadn't found
Bb6
my own voice yet
Gm Em
So all I could hear was the noise that
Dm6
People make when they don't know shit
But I didn't know that yet
[Verse 5]
C Bb6
I grew up in the shoes they told me I could fill
Gm Em
When they came around I would stand real still
Dm6
A girl can roll her eyes at me and kill
Dm6
I got the idea I wasn’t real
C Bb6 Gm
I thought being blacklisted would be
Em
grist for the mill
Dm6
Until I realized I'm still here (I'm still here)
C Bb6
I grew up in the shoes they told me I could fill
Gm Em
Shoes that were not made for running up that hill
Dm6
And I need to run up that hill, I need to run up that hill
I will, I will, I will, I will, I will
[Chorus 2]
C
Fetch the bolt cutters, I've been in here too long
C
Fetch the bolt cutters, whatever happens, whatever happens
C
Fetch the bolt cutters, I've been in here too long
C
Fetch the bolt cutters, whatever happens, whatever happens
C
Fetch the bolt cutters (I've been in here too long)
C
Whatever happens, whatever happens
[Outro]
C
Fetch the bolt cutters, fetch the bolt cutters
C
Fetch the bolt cutters, fetch the bolt cutters (I will, I will)
C
Fetch the bolt cutters, fetch the bolt cutters
C
Fetch the bolt cutters, fetch the bolt cutters
C
Fetch the bolt cutters, fetch the bolt cutters
C
Whatever happens, whatever happens
C
Whatever happens, whatever happens
C
Fetch the bolt cutters (Whatever happens, whatever happens), fetch the bolt cutters
