[A] [Am]
[C]
[A] [Am] I just want to look at the big inside
[C] Where New Jersey meets the New York line
Been [G] through the tunnel for the last [F] time
With everything crumpled and [C] behind
I stood still until I thought the shapes
Of two bodies that were parted [G] ways
I didn't want to be the one to [F] say
I know this hurts but it's time [C] to break
[A] [C] [G]
Electronic [D] devices, school phones, [C]
life's not secure
[Am] I [C] blow [G] a brick in the [C] air to give back [G] to her
[C] I feel like [E] paralyzed
When I [Am] look at the [G] answer's placed up in [F] my ear
I think [D] about things [C] we can't reach
I'm [Am] feeling [Em] low
[E]
But I [Am] still love someone [G] right there
I've got [F] to share
[G] Before my [Am] happiness
[C]
[A] [Am]
[C]
[A] [Am]
Buries [C] in that wet pain instead of sturdy trees
[G] [Bm] I've got to wash these old [F] sheets
So I can fall [C] asleep
[A] Spirit dying, spirit dying, diaries for the [C] phone
Tell you that there might still [G] be some hope
Holding on, holding on to the slack [F] rope
But that's the whiskey [G] talking so
[A] [C] That
[Bm] [D] you can't find [C] some peace in [Am] life
[C] Tell you, [G]
survive without [F] reaches I thought I'd be fine
[G] Now I'm slurring every [C] single line
Like being paralyzed
[E]
[Am] When I look at the [G] answer's placed up in [F] my ear
I'm [C]
[Am] feeling [E] low
But I [Am] still love someone [G] right there
I've got [F] to share
I've [A] got to move on before [G] I can find [C] happiness
[Am] This isn't fair, no
I've got me, have [G] to
[C] Trust me and I'll act so exactly
From [E] this song [Am] I write
My [C] blood is my blood to move
Out [G] your [A] head, down your soul
I [F] black out so I can't dream
[Cm] But I still see you speaking
From [E] my [Em]
weary head
[Am] Suffered from a drought
[F] Medicine to dull self-doubt
[Cm] I just want to drown you out
[Em] With some
[Am] If I had a dream
For [F] every goddamn time I fail
[C] But fails means I've been paid
[Em] Then at least [B] I could
[Am] Have a shot
For [F] every goddamn time I [D] fail
[C] But I still see you speaking
Suffered from a drought
For every goddamn time I fail
But fails mean I've been paid
Then [Em] at least I could
Get [Am] some sleep
