Tone: [Ab]
Verse 1:
I [B]called you [Gb] [Gb6] [Gb]
But I'd run out of [B]words [B6sus2] [Bsus2]
So I [B]stared at the [Db]plastic [Dbsus4] [Db]
[B]Collidin' with [Gb]dirt [Gb6] [Gbsus2] [Gb]
At the [B]fast food [Gb] [Gb6] [Gb]
Sign out in [B]Leb [B6sus2] [Bsus2]
I pre[B]prepared for the [Db]warfare [Dbsus4] [Db]
With the [B]voice in my [Gb]head [Gb6] [Gbsus2] [Gb]
Pre-chorus:
And I [Ebm]thought it was [Gb]strange [Gb6]
How the [B]letters were placed
How the [Ebm]hiring [Gb]sign
Seemed to [B]laugh in my face [Bsus2]
And [Ebm]if you were [Gb]here, you'd make a [B]joke of it
I'm a[Ebm]alone, getting [Gb]lost in the [B]scope of it
And I see you drive in
Chorus:
And your[Gb] love is like an[B] open[Gb] flame
I'm a running [Ebm]car, and you're a [B]closed ga[Gb]garage
Someone once [Gb]told us there's a [B]world out [Gb]thеre
But we don't [Ebm]care enough to [B]drive that [Gb]far
It's been a [Gb]damn near [B]perfect [Gb]day
Just getting [Ebm]high at the [B]outlet [Gb]mall
Most people [Gb]grow up and they [B]move a[Gb]away
But you don't [Ebm]care, and I don't [B]mind at [Gb]all
Interlude:
\Gb
Verse 2:
[Gb]I got the car, you[B]you got the [Gb]bag
a [Db]handwritten note left from [Gb]mom and [Gb]dad
[B]Police scanner bouncing on the dash
Cup of burnt coffee and a [Db]check to [Gb]cash
I had the brains for a [B]city [Gb]job
But [Db]you got the taste of a [Gb]county [Gb]cop
[B]Pack of cigarettes and a round of golf
Make a livin' workin' for the [Db]paid time [Gb]off
Pre-chorus:
Such [Ebm]simple lines [Gb]
They [B]drew to make this place
In the [Ebm]interest of [Gb]time
We got a [B]whole lot to waste
Chorus:
And your [Gb]love is like an [B]open [Gb]flame
I'm a running [Ebm]car, you're a [B]closed ga[Gb]garage
Someone once [Gb]said there's a [B]world out [Gb]thеre
But we don't [Ebm]care enough to [B]drive that [Gb]far
It's been a [Gb]damn near [B]perfect [Gb]day
Just getting [Ebm]high at the [B]outlet [Gb]mall
People [Gb]grow and they [B]move a[Gb]away
But you don't [Ebm]care, and I don't [B]mind at [Gb]all
Post-chorus:
You don't [Ebm]care, and I don't [B]mind at [Gb]all
