[Verse]
[Em] Picture yourself in the [Am]living room
your pipe and slippers set [G]out for you
I know you think that it [Bm]ain't too far
But [Em]I hear the call of a l[C]ifetime ring
C ~ D ~ G
felt the need to get up for it
Oh, you cut out the [Am]middleman
get [Bm]free from the middleman
[Chorus]
[C] You got no time for the [G]messenger,
C D G ~ B ~ C
got no regard for the thing that you don't understand,
[C] you got no fear of the [Bm]underdog,
[D] that's why you will not survive

[Verse]
[Em] I want to forget how con[C]viction fits
but can I [D]get out from [G]under it?
Can I gut it [Bm]out of me?
[C] It can't all be [G]wedding cake
It can't all be [Am]boiled away
I try but I can't let [Bm]go of it
I [B]can't let go of it,
[Chorus]
[C] 'Cause you don't talk to the [G]water boy
C D G ~ B ~ C
and there's so much you could learn but you don't want to know,
[C] You will not back up an [Bm]inch ever,
[D] that's why you will not survive,

[Verse]
[Em] The thing that I [Am]tell you now
[D]It may not go [G]over well[G]
[Em]And it may not be [Am]photo-op
[D]in the way that I [G]spell it out
[Chorus]
[C] But you won't hear from the [Bm]messenger,
C D G ~ B ~ C
don't wanna know 'bout something that you don't understand,
[C]You got no fear of the u[Bm]nderdog,
[D]that's why you will not survive
