[D] [Am] [G]

[Am] [G]
[D] Grab a thick stack of [Am] napkins and a handy-kneed to coat [G] bag.
Just like the [D] night she dropped her phone off of the balcony.
Says she's going [Am] to Colorado and gonna get her a [G]
motorcycle.
We'd [D] believe her if she wouldn't say it all the time.
We gave our [Am] paperwork to the soldiers at the [G] checkpoint.
They looked it [D] over with their rifles in the sand.
Eyes hard [Am] as diamonds when they wake you in the [G] airport.
Flying across an [D] ocean holding cities in your hands.
[Am] [G]

[D]
I wrote this song on [Am] Christmas but none of you gave a shit [G] then.
Three hundred [D] dollars and we got it on your stereo.
Go out to the [Am] canyon eating psychedelic [G] mushrooms.
Stare into [D] fire, try to make myself a plan.
This world goes [Am] so fast sometimes it makes me [G] dizzy.
But I know that [D] most of us just do the best we can.
I never was [Am] one for big city [G] traffic.
Flying across the [D] desert through the buildings made of sand.

Let's call this the [Am] chorus, you know I'm so tired of [G] writing.
Three songs a [D] day, how could anybody care?
Gonna make it [Am] big, I'm going out to California.
[G] Gonna buy me a [D] motorcycle and make a life out there.
