[Verse]
Bb Bb
I took a pill in Ibiza
F
To show Avicii I was cool
D#
And when I finally got sober, felt 10 years older
Bb
But fuck it, it was something to do.
Bb
I'm livin' out in LA
F
I drive a sports car just to prove
Bb
I'm a real big baller
D# F Bb
Cause I made a million dollars and I spent it on girls and shoes
[Chorus]
Gm
But you don't want to be high like me
F
Never really knowing why like me
D# Bb
You don't ever wanna step off that roller coaster and be all alone.
Gm
You never wanna ride the bus like this
F
Never knowing who to trust like this
D#
You don't wanna be stuck up on that stage singing.
D#
Stuck up on that stage singing.
Bb F D# Bb
All I know are sad songs, sad songs.
Bb F D# Bb
Darling, all I know are sad songs, sad songs.
[Verse]
Bb F
I'm just a singer who already blew his shot
D#
I get along with old timers
Bb
Cause my name's a reminder of a pop song people forgot
Bb
And I can't keep a girl, no
F
Cause as soon as the sun comes up
D# Bb
I cut em all loose and work's my excuse
But the truth is I can't open up
[Chorus]
Gm
But you don't want to be high like me
F
Never really knowing why like me
D# Bb
You don't ever wanna step off that roller coaster and be all alone.
Gm
You never wanna ride the bus like this
F
Never knowing who to trust like this
D#
You don't wanna be stuck up on that stage singing.
D#
Stuck up on that stage singing.
Bb F D# Bb
All I know are sad songs, sad songs.
Bb F D# Bb
Darling, all I know are sad songs, sad songs.

[Verse]
Bb
I took a plane to my home town
F
I brought my pride and my guitar
D# Bb
All my friends are all gone but there's manicured lawns
And the people still think I'm a star
Bb
I walked around downtown
F
I met some fans in life I earned
D#
They said tell us how to make it cause we're getting real impatient
Bb
So I looked em in the eye and said
[Chorus]
Gm
But you don't want to be high like me
F
Never really knowing why like me
D# Bb
You don't ever wanna step off that roller coaster and be all alone.
Gm
You never wanna ride the bus like this
F
Never knowing who to trust like this
D#
You don't wanna be stuck up on that stage singing.
D#
Stuck up on that stage singing.
Bb F D# Bb
All I know are sad songs, sad songs.
Bb F D# Bb
Darling, all I know are sad songs, sad songs.
