[Intro]
G
[Verse 1]
G
I took a pill in Ibiza
D
To show Avicii I was cool
C
And when I finally got sober, I felt 10 years older
G
But fuck it, it was something to do
G
I'm living out in LA
D
I drive a sports car just to prove
C
I'm a real big baller 'cause I made a million dollars
G
And I spend it on girls and shoes
[Chorus]
Em
But you don't wanna be high like me
D
Never really knowing why like me
C G
You don't ever wanna step off that roller coaster and be all alone
Em
You don't wanna ride the bus like this
D
Never knowing who to trust like this
C
You don't wanna be stuck up on that stage singing
C
Stuck up on that stage singing
Em D C G
All I know are sad songs, sad songs
Em D C
All I know are sad songs
[Verse 2]
G D
I'm just a singer who already blew his shot
C
I get along with old timers
G
'Cause my name's a reminder of a pop song people forgot
G
And I can't keep a girl, no
D
'Cause as soon as the sun comes up
C
I cut 'em all loose and work's my excuse
G
But the truth is I can't open up
[Chorus]
Em
But you don't wanna be high like me
D
Never really knowing why like me
C G
You don't ever wanna step off that roller coaster and be all alone
Em
You don't wanna ride the bus like this
D
Never knowing who to trust like this
C
You don't wanna be stuck up on that stage singing
C
Stuck up on that stage singing
Em D C G
All I know are sad songs, sad songs
Em D C
Darling, all I know are sad songs
[Interlude]
Em D C G
Em D C G
[Verse 3]
G
I took a plane to my home town
D
I brought my pride and my guitar
C
All my friends are all gone but there's manicured lawns
G
And the people still think I'm a star
G
I walked around downtown
D
I met some fans on Lafayette
C
They said tell us how to make it 'cause we're getting real impatient
G
So I looked 'em in the eye and said
[Chorus]
Em
You don't wanna be high like me
D
Never knowing who to try like me
C G
You don't ever wanna step off that roller coaster and be all alone
Em
You don't wanna ride the bus like this
D
Never knowing who to trust like this
C
You don't wanna be stuck up on that stage singing
C
Stuck up on that stage singing
Em D C G
All I know are sad songs, sad songs
Em D C
Darling, all I know are sad songs
