Verse 1:
Gbm7B7EAGbm7B7EA It was one hundred degrees, as we sat beneath a willow tree,
Gbm7B7EAGbm7B7 Who's tears didn't care, they just hung in the air, and refused to fall, to
EA fall--
Verse 2:
Gbm7B7EA And I knew I'd made horrible call,
Gbm7B7EA And now the state line felt like the Berlin wall,
Gbm7B7EA And there was no doubt about which side I was on, mhm.
Interlude: GbmB7DA
Bridge:
GbmBbmEmBbm Cause I built you a home in my heart,
GbmBbmAE With rotten wood, it decayed from the start.
Chorus:
DAE Cause you can't find nothing at all,
DAE - repeat -
If there was nothing there all along.
No you can't find nothing at all,
If there was nothing there all along.
Interlude: GbmB7DA - repeat -
Verse 3:
I braved treacherous streets,
And kids strung out on homemade speed.
And we shared a bed in which I could not sleep,
At all, woo, hoo, woo, hooOoOo.
Verse 2:
Cause at night the sun in retreat,
Made the skyline look like crooked teeth,
In the mouth of a man who was devouring, us both.
Bridge:
You're so cute when you're slurring your speech,
But they're closing the bar and they want us to leave.
Chorus:
And you can't find nothing at all,
If there was nothing there all along.
No you can't find nothing at all,
If there was nothing there all along.
GbmBbm7 I'm a war, of head versus heart,
Gbm And it's always this way.
GbmE My head is weak, my heart always speaks,
AE Before I know what it will say.
Chorus:
And you can't find nothing at all,
If there was nothing there all along.
There were churches, theme parks and malls,
But there was nothing there all along.
