"Do Better" by Say Anything

Standard Tuning
Capo 1 (On 1st Fret)

Intro (x2): G  C  Em  C

Verse 1:
G
Life is not a spark in space,
              C
an episode of will and grace
Em 
controversial yet mundane,
                  C
Deborah's messing with your brain.
G                                        C
Even scientologists know there's more to all of this, 
Em                                                     C
search the ruins for trapped doors, wonder what you're put here for. 
Csus2                   Em                Am
Simple as a hint of gas climbing nostrils as you pass,
Csus2                         Em                 Am
making Harvard graduates feel childish when they laugh at it. 
Csus2                            Em            Am
Climb the rungs to kingdom come, sour patch to acid tongue, 
Csus2                              Em                 Am
are you opposed to having fun? You clench the world between your buns. 

Chorus 1:
G                                                          
You could do better, you could do better, 
C                Em                         C
you could be the greatest man in the world. 
G                                                          
You could do better, you could do better, 
C                Em                         C
you could be the greatest man in the world. 

Verse 2:
G                                         C        Em
Your life is always the post of something else...
                                         C
Where is the present in the way that you present yourself? 
G                                       C     Em
And it's disgusting how little that you try, 
                               C
the existential equivalence of pink eye. 
Csus2                     Em               Am
Drink alone and watch TV, you're expecting harmony, 
Csus2                               Em             Am
statap your tune with silver spoons and the loving pending doom. 
Csus2                        Em                 Am
Guiding satan's steady hand, forcing Beatles to disband. 
Csus2                             Em                      Am  
It's ego freaks and drama queens, the young at heart know what I mean.

Chorus 2:
G                                                          
You could do better, you could do better, 
C                Em                         C
you could be the greatest man in the world. 
G                                                          
You could do better, you could do better, 
C                Em                         C
you could be the greatest man in the world. 
Em                                   C          G
You could do better, better than that, you're a fraud. 
                                   Asus2
Thank god you learned to keep your shirt on. 
Em                                                          
You could do better, you could do better, 
C                G                          D   G
you could be the greatest man in the world. 

Bridge: (Enter with previous G)  
Wasn't sure what the "?" chord was but I play it using this: 

            ?       C     G                                         
You burn so brightly,
            ?        C           G
you burn so brightly in the dark.
            ?       C     G
You burn so brightly,
           ?     C        G
you burn so, you burn so. 

Solo: (Chords same as the Bridge)

Chorus 3/End:
G                                                          
You could do better, you could do better, 
C                Em                         C
you could be the greatest man in the world. 
G                                                          
You could do better, you could do better, 
C                Em                         C
you could be the greatest man in the world. 
Em                                   C          G
You could do better, better than that, you're a fraud. 
                                   Asus2
Thank god you learned to keep your shirt on. 
Em                                                          
You could do better, you could do better, 
C                G                          C
you could be the greatest man in the world. 
Em                                                          
You could do better, you could do better, 
C                G                          C
you could be the greatest man in the world. 
Em                                         
We could do better, we could do better, 
C               G                           Asus2
we could be the greatest band in the world.
