I think these are all 5ths/power chords in the actual song, but have put the closest whole chord for
ease and people who would to use that. If not, just take each chord as 'x5'.
[Verse 1]
D# C#
Nothing sinister starts out sober
D# C#
Sometimes the chemicals work me over
D# C#
The things you learn at 4am
D# C#
When do I become who I am?
D#
Save your blast from the past
C#
This is not a mirage
D# C#
I'm a stolen car in a parking garage
D#
On your hands and your knees
C#
Do you feel in charge?
D#
Crawling back to who you were
[Chorus]
N.C. D#
I just wanna feel good
G#
I wanna feel special
C#
Dig down
G#
Underneath the pressure
D# G#
I wanna fake my pain away
F# G#
I wanna fake my pain away
D# G# C# G#
I just wanna feel good
D# G#
I just wanna feel good
F#
And fake my pain
[Post-Chorus]
N.C.
I just wanna feel good, good
N.C.
I just wanna feel g-
[Verse 2]
D#
Where does the time go?
C#
Here comes the heavy low
D# C#
I got two houses and a hungry hungry ego
D# C# D#
Hard to make the best of a good thing now
C# D# C#
'Cause this town's too big, too big for the one of me
D# C#
Sometimes you make friends with the enemy
D# C#
Am I the one on the throne or a wannabe?
D#
Are you crawling back to who you were?
[Chorus]
N.C. D#
I just wanna feel good
G#
I wanna feel special
C#
Dig down
G#
Underneath the pressure
D# G#
I wanna fake my pain away
F# G#
I wanna fake my pain away
D# G# C# G#
I just wanna feel good
D# G#
I just wanna feel good
F#
And fake my pain
[Post-Chorus]
N.C.
I just wanna feel good, good
N.C.
I just wanna feel good, good
[Bridge]
D# C#
I just wanna wake up
G#
Put a smile on my face
D#
That isn't made up
D# C#
Float just like a feather
G# D#
Or sink just like a stone thrown in a river
[Chorus]
N.C. D#
I just wanna feel good
G#
I wanna feel special
C#
Dig down
G#
Underneath the pressure
D# G#
I wanna fake my pain away
F# G#
I wanna fake my pain away
D#
I just wanna feel good
[Outro]
G#
I wanna feel special
C# G#
When the hell is it gonna get better?
D# G#
I just wanna feel good
F#
And fake my pain
N.C. D#
I just wanna feel good
