Big Bird Acoustic Chords & Lyrics - Andrew Jackson Jihad

I'm [C]afraid of the way I live my life.
I'm [Am]afraid of the way I don't.
I'm [F]afraid of the things I [G]want to do but I [C]won't.

I'm [C]afraid of God.
I'm afraid to believe and I'm [A]afraid of all the loved ones that I've made leave.
I'm [F]afraid that my dog doesn't [G]love me [C]anymore.

I'm [C]afraid of the social laziness that let [Am]Kitty Genovese die.
And I'm [F]afraid of the mob [G]mentality that makes [C]otherwise normal people go blind.
I'm [C]afraid of the way that the world works and I'm [Am]afraid of the words in my notebooks.
I'm [F]afraid that you all know [G]that I am a [C]pervert.

But the big red [F]bird that lives under the [G]city
doesn't [Am]give a damn [C]about me and it dies every [F]night.
By burning [Dm]alive.

I'm [C]afraid of my grandfathers cancer.
And I'm [Am]afraid of my mom's dying arm.
I'm [F]afraid that I've somehow [G]caused my family [C]harm.

I'm [C]afraid that the ones I love won't have e[Am]nough.
I'm [F]afraid that the ones I [G]love won't have e[Am]nough.

It's [F]harder to be [G]yourself than it [Am]is to be anybody else.
[F]I wish I were a [G]little less of a [Am]coward but the big red [F]bird that lives under
the [G]city
doesn't [Am]give a damn about me and it dies every [F]night.
So I bought a [Dm]knife.
[C]
I [Am] [A] knife.

[Am] [F] [G] [C]
