This is a pretty easy song but it is fun to play. 
I have tabbed this song in Drop D tuning, which means you
 tune your low E string down to a D.

Lyrics

Stumbling along looking at nothing 
because your eyes are always on your feet. 
If you ever looked up then you'd see the sun 
and the morning you wonder why things are so bleak..? 


Boring and old are the things your told 
about the outside world, 
and just wearing black wont take care of that 
dont be stupid girl 


Walking and always talking 
but never listening 
you just kick back 
how do you handle 
all the bullshit that gets thrown your way 


Boring and old are the things your told 
about the outside world, 
and and just wearing black wont take care of that 
dont be stupid girl 


Dont be stupid 
down on your knees trying to appease 
somebodys mixed up statement 
cos in not much time 
your beliefs that are lies 
will be left on the pavement 
they'll be left by the way 


I've been doing some thinking 
about all your preaching 
and i dont wanna know 
cos thats just conforming 
and that is not what you wanna be. 


Boring and old are the things your told 
about the outside world 
and just wearing black wont take care of that 
dont be stupid girl 

Dont be stupid 
down on your knees trying to appease 
somebodys mixed up statement 
cos in not much time 
your beliefs that are lies 
will be left by the pavement 
they'll be left by the way 
oh left by the pavement 
oh dont be so stupid girl 
your in your world 
dont dress in black 
wont take care of that 
dont be, be so stupid girl
