[F] _ _ [Db] _ _ [Ab] _ [Eb] In glass. _
[F] _ _ [Db] _ _ [Eb] _ _ [F] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ You know, it's, [Db] it's, I don't know what,
the _ _ _ way it feels on tour is like there's always certain smells
and there's always certain things that you see every day,
you know, whether it's body odor
to _ _ _ the smell of the trucks outside
to _ seeing the crew and the guys every day.
It's kind of like [Ab] a, it's a traveling circus in a lot of ways
and you see the same characters every single day.
_ _ [Db] _ _ _
[Bb] _ Wait!
_ They don't love you like I love you.
_ _ Wait!
_ They don't love you like [F] I love you.
_ Wait!
Wait!
_ [Fm] _ _ _ We got a countdown about 30 minutes before we go on. _ _
_ [Db] _ _ _ _ _ [Dm] _ _
_ [Ebm] _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _ _
[Em] Usually I [Gb] have a little practice [Eb] amp and one [E] guitar
and one of us will pick it up and we kind of sing through,
we all sing some vocals [F] and get our vocals in line
and there's [Em] usually a lot of goofing around in that too.
[Ab] _
[Dm] _ [Bm] Here are [Gb] the [Bb] rules.
[C]
Hey!
_ _ [Gb] _ [Abm] _ _ [Cm] _ _
_ _ [Gb] _ [Ab] _ Here are the rules.
_ To live, _ [Db] but not [Abm] to play
To _ [Gb] _ _ [Abm] _
die _ _ in tragedy
_ _ _ [Ab] You _ run _ and run _ away _
[Abm] _ To find _ what you believe
[Ab] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Eb] _ _ There's that [Ab] struggle to stay healthy,
_ _ there's a struggle to party, to not party.
_ _ [G] Oh!
_ [D] _ _ Right _ _ _ _ here.
_ Everything that you do during the day
leads up to what your evening is going to be like,
_ or not be like, because it could be completely unpredictable.
You could be having the worst day ever.
_ _ Everything's gone, your girlfriend broke up with you,
your dog got hit by a car, your life is in complete turmoil,
and then that night you have this great show
and then you kind of, there's that feeling of fuck everybody,
who cares, I don't give a shit, fuck the dog, dog's dead.
But all these people are freaking [Cm] out.
_ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ And then you walk offstage, and then all of a sudden
you're worried about what's going on at home
and _ _ _ you're back to your life
and trying to communicate with people at home. _
_ Sometimes _ people use touring as a cure-all for their problems.
It's a great place [Bb] to run away from all your problems.
[Ab] _
Which [Eb] one's the fillies? _ _ _
_ _ It's a different [N] reality altogether,
but as soon as that reality's over with,
or that fantasy life is over with,
all of a sudden you're at home again, there it is.
Home is right there, and _ you're forced to deal with things. _
And then you have a terrible show, _ _ and everything sucks.
That day sucks. _
You throw your guitar at somebody, or your bass at somebody,
or your drumstick at somebody _ with bad intent.
Then there's those times where that is your family,
that is who you are, you know, that is your home. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Bb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[B] _ _ That's my jam, yo!
