Kaiser Chiefs - Everything Is Average Nowadays

[Chorus:]
D                               Bm
Sooo, everything is average nowadays
                           D
Everything is average nowadays
                                  Bm
But everyone would do it if they can
                                  G
But everything is going down the pan
                               A
And everyone is following the craze

And everything is average


         D
Now you say it's getting better,
    Bm
but I don't really see the signs
D
You say it is too different,
    Bm
you thought it would be suicide
G
There's not much to believe in,
A
left up on the shelf
G
So get your coats we're leaving,
A
we'll just do something else


[Chorus:]
D                               Bm
Ooo, everything is average nowadays
                           D
Everything is average nowadays
                              Bm
But everything is of no consequence
                                  G
Cause everyone is sitting on the fence
                                     A
And everything will always stay the same

Cause everything is average

         D
Now you said you didn't need it,
    Bm
you threw away the book of rules
    D
You thought that we should read it,
  Bm
I wouldn't even know how to

         G
There's not much to believe in,
A
left up on the shelf
            G
So get your coats we're leaving,
A
we'll just do something else


B                E
All I need is a ball and a wall
      A                    G     A
Or a sledge and a hill in heavy weather
B                E
All I need is a ball and a wall
     A                  G     A
A sledge and a hill in heavy weather
B
Oh oh oh oh ( x 2 )

D  Bm  
D  Bm

G
Not much to believe in,
A
left up on the shelf

So get your coats we're leaving,
A
we'll just do something else

But everyone would do it if they can
                                  A

                               B
And everyone is following the craze
                                 E
