Tone: [Gb]
Verse 1:
I'm the [B]tall glass of water you lost in your kitchen
I'm [Gb]casually cruel like a senior prediction
Most [Ebm7]likely to leave at the sign of a fork in the[Bmaj7]the road
You looked [B]just like your father as the news was delivered
Cut a [Gb]hole in my heart that bled into my liver
I miss[Ebm7]miss being alone when it didn't mean being[Bmaj7]being alone
Verse 2:
And if [B]love was contagious, I might be immune to it
[Gb]Pain's like cold water, your brain just gets used to it
I [Ebm7]try to keep swimming and keep Dad's good word in my [Bmaj7]mouth
Now they're f[B]fighting like dogs in the town across the river
Over a b[Gb]brand new crosswalk that won't matter come winter
And some[Ebm7]sometimes folks just need something to be angry abo[B]about
What you angry ab[Bmaj7]about?
Chorus:
I ain't b[Gb]bitter 'bout much these days
In some ways, I'm damn [Bmaj7]lucky to be here[Gb]here
Where the m[B]miners stayed in the g[Gb]good old days
Yes, real [Bmaj7]men used to sleep here [Gb]
By those r[Ebm7]roadside graves where my fri[Db]friends still lay in
I walk [Bmaj7]by just to weep here [Gb]
They say[Ebm7]say killing time ain't a [Db]homicide
But a [Bmaj7]prayer for a leap year
Verse 3:
I'm the r[B]roach in your drawer, I lived here long before you
I'm the r[Gb]rumble of war, it gets h[Gb]hard to ignore you
Well, l[Ebm7]love, sometimes folks just need something they can scream at
[Bmaj7]Scream at
I'm the h[B]hills in the distance, you see me, can't be me
You n[Gb]need me in half, Lord, I need you completely
Oh,[Ebm7]Oh, sometimes folks just need something they can scream at [Bmaj7]
Chorus:
I ain't b[Gb]bitter 'bout much these days
In some ways, I'm damn [Bmaj7]lucky to be here[Gb]here
Where the m[B]miners stayed in the g[Gb]good old days
Yes, real [Bmaj7]men used to sleep here[Gb]here
By those r[Ebm7]roadside graves where my fr[Db]friends still lay in
I walk [Bmaj7]by just to weep here [Gb]
They say[Ebm7]say killing time ain't a[Db]a homicide
But a p[Bmaj7]prayer for a leap year
They say[Ebm7]say killing time ain't a[Db]a homicide
But a p[Bmaj7]prayer for a leap year
Outro:
I'm on r[Gb]running ground, I'm in B[B]Bordertown
I'm a c[Ebm7]college kid with my w[Bmaj7]windows down
I'm an a[Bmaj7]astronaut, you're the m[Db]moon
I stare at [Ebm7]you, I sing to [Bmaj7]you
I'm on r[Gb]running ground, I'm in B[B]Bordertown
I'm a c[Ebm7]college kid with my w[Db]windows down
I'm an a[Bmaj7]astronaut, you're the m[Db]moon
I sing to [Ebm7]you, I scream to [Bmaj7]you
I'll stare at [Ebm7]you, I'll sting at [Bmaj7]you
