Alternate between these first two positions,
hitting the A & D strings (5th & 4th).
The third (right-most) one is optional.
Play it just once, after #2 and before #1.
It’s like a “step” between.
It also sounds best if you’re throwing in some muting
with either hand, if you are able to.
#1 #2 #3

Dm
His palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy
Bb C
There’s vomit on his sweater already, mom’s spaghetti
Dm
He’s nervous, but on the surface he looks calm and ready
Bb C
To drop bombs, but he keeps on forgetting
Dm
What he wrote down, the whole crowd goes so loud
Bb C
He opens his mouth, but the words won’t come out
Dm
He’s choking, how? Everybody’s joking now
Bb C
The clock’s run out, times up, over, blaoh!
Dm
Snap back to reality, oh, there goes gravity
Bb C Dm
Oh, there goes Rabbit. He choked, he’s so mad but he won’t
Bb
Give up that easy, no, he won’t have it he knows
C Dm
His whole back’s to these ropes, it don’t matter he’s dope
Bb
He knows that but he’s broke, he’s so stagnant he knows
C
When he goes back to his mobile home, that’s when it’s
Dm
Back to the lab again, yo
Bb
This whole rhapsody better go capture this moment
C
And hope it don’t pass him
Chorus:
Dm
You better lose yourself in the music
Bb C
The moment, you own it, you better never let it go
