F#
Cause we're all such lovely people
B F#
And one day we'll all find someone One day we'll all find someone
C# (Palm muted) B (Palm muted)
I just hope I'm alive Hope I'm alive When it happens
F# B F# (with the lead part over the top)
(Palm mute this bit)
F#
We once tried to build something but we're burning it down
B
And I think I love you
And I'm sorry everything changed after the accident
F#
It's never thought that you were driving too
F#
We've been here forever so long he calls you
B
By your first name and I've been here so long
F#
things are starting to get a little vague
C# (Palm muted) B (Palm muted)
But everybody needs Everyone needs a little shock sometimes
F# B F#
B C#
And I woke up feeling like Sigourney Weaver, yeah,
F# B F# B
Something inside of me trying to get out
B C#
And if this wasn't my home surely I would leave you
F# B F# B
But there's something inside of me trying to get out
B C#
And lying next to you trying not to try
F# B F# B
There's something inside of me trying to get out X4
F# (let ring)
And you look so beautiful with your back to me
You turn around a give me a one look vasectomy
I whisper in your ear "Don't you ever disappear"
And you whisper back "Don't you ever fucking touch me!"
F#
Treat women like queens even after they leave
B
Not sure who I miss but I know what I need
F#
Some skin in the gaps where the skin used to be
F#
Not even 20, but I look 45
Call it what you want, emotional blackmail or suicide
B
Everything changed on the day that her father died
F
She always told me that I looked just like him
B F
Always told me that I looked just like him
C#
And if I fell in the forest, there was no one else around me
B
Then I'm guessing I would have to call on you
C# x2
Cause no one gets lost anymore
B
No one gets lost anymore
F# B F
