Make Things Worse

The two verses and everything that's not the chorus is G-E-A-D. The intro/break is just a long version of it with an extra C throw in and out of the G. The verse is just a shorter G-E-A-D
(Verse 1)
G                             E
I'm the king of being royally fucked up
A                                    D
And I'm the champion of winning at losing
I'm a superstar at failing spectacularly
I'm the president of substance abusing

(Chorus)
             G   D     A                            C
And I'm on-ly better at making things worse (X3)
C
Make things worse

(break G-E-A-D)

(Verse 2)
I'm the captain of a boat going down
I'm the protagonist of a book that won't sell
I'm the very top of being at the bottom
I'm a hero at landing a spot in hell

(Chorus)
(Break G-E-A-D)
*Hold the last D and bridge into a palm mute crescendo using the chorus*
Finish out with regular chorus (I play it harder/faster)

(Ending)
C                          G~

Savior Self

The G alternates with me taking my finger off the top string, have no idea what chord that is though. Just changes the top B down to an A. The whole thing is pretty much the alternating G,Am, and D.

(Verse 1)
G                           Am                 D
Don't trust anything that you are told
G                                                                         Am                  D
It was probably filtered through a bunch of bullshit before it got to you
If you run into anyone that says they have all the answers
Cover your ears and run in the opposite direction
Cause I think that true knowledge is knowing you don't know anything
I've come to the realization I don't know a fucking thing
If I could go back in time I'd probably punch myself in the face
For all the times I was a know it all smart alecky piece of shit

(Pre chorus)
Am
I'm not saying to not have faith in anything
B
But you kinda have to be skeptical
C                                           D
of a world built on self serving lies

(Chorus)
           G
Savior Self
Am          D
ooo-wah-ooo
           G
Savior Self
Am               D
It starts with you
(repeat chorus again)

(Verse 2)
Being a complete pessimist is no way to go through life
But I urge caution to make sure to read between the lines
Someone is probably trying to sell you something or profit off of you
They'll rob you of hope and try to dehumanize you
But I'm not a fucking statistic, demographic, or faceless drone
I am flesh and blood with thoughts and feelings
Because money is just paper and things are our chains
If you're just waiting to be rescued you're already a lost cause

(Pre Chorus)
(Chorus)
End with...
            G
Savior Self
Am                D         G~
It starts and ends with you
