[Intro]
Ab Eb Bb Cm
Ab Eb Bb
[Verse 1]
Cm Ab Eb
So tell me this is who you are
Cm Ab
They tell me I've got something more
Eb Bb
And oh, you could be loved
Cm Ab Fm
But I don't want the lights, to, find me when I'm dark, and lost
Cm Bb
But never on my own
[Chorus]
Ab
'Cause I just wanna swing like Sinatra
Eb
Singing like I can't stop
Bb Cm Bb Fm
'Cause I could never rock like a Rolling Stone
Cm Bb
I just wanna live like the ones before, yeah
Ab
And maybe I could play guitar like Hendrix
Eb Bb
Or save the world or end it and
Cm Bb Fm
Then maybe they'll remember me when I'm gone
Cm Bb
That's all I could ever want
Bb
That's all I want
[Guitar Solo]
Cm Bb Fm
Cm Ab Eb
[Verse 2]
Cm Bb
So I got ten minutes to be all or nothing to
Fm
Whoever wants to hear
Cm Ab Eb
And I got ten weeks of talking bullshit on repeat 'till I'm burnt out and disappear
Cm
But I owe you nothing
Bb Fm
And I own my luck
Cm
Oh, they said you'll never be alone again
Ab Eb
But I don't think you understand me or what I fear
Bb
But you could be loved
Cm Ab Fm
But I don't wanna lie, to, tell myself I'm more
Cm Bb
than all the mistakes I've outrun
[Bridge]
Ab
'Cause I'm only here for a minute
Cm Bb
And I don't care what you say 'cause I know
Ab
You're only here cause I'm winning
Fm Bb Cm
But I can be my own kind of rock and roll
Ab
I don't really care if you say you don't fuck with me
Cm
And I can say what the fuck I want 'cause it's down to me
And I got love for you even if you were doubting me
Bb
Like, oh my God, I just can't stop
[Chorus]
Ab
'Cause I just wanna sing like Sinatra
Eb Bb
With ethanol my soundtrack
Cm Bb Ab
'Cause I could never rock like a Rolling Stone
Eb Bb
I wonder how it feels to burn out young, yeah
Ab
'Cause I just wanna die before my heart fails
Eb Bb
From heartbreak or cocktails and
Cm Bb Fm
Then maybe you'll cry once you know I'm gone
Eb Bb
That's all I could ever want
Oh, that's all I want, yeah
[Outro]
Fm Ab
'Cause I ain't scared of livin'
- (Does it get easier?)
- (No...)
Cm Gm
No, I ain't scared of livin'
- (yes, it gets easier)
- (Oh yeah?)
Fm
No, I ain't scared of livin'
Ab
'Cause it's all we've got
Cm
What are we breathin' for if we ain't living?
Gm
And I don't want your love
Eb
I just wanna feel like I'm still livin'
Ab
And if there is no god
Bb Cm
I know the day I die, I lived through heaven
Gm
And that I gave it hell
And if it hurt, oh well
Eb Ab
At least that's living
- (The more you know who you are and what you want...)
Cm Gm
That's all I want
- (...the less you let things upset you)
Eb Ab
That's all I want
[Ending]
I just don't know who I'm supposed to be
Cm Gm
I tried being a writer but I hate what I write
And I tried taking pictures but they were so mediocre
Ab Eb Ab
You know, and every girl goes through a photography phase
Bb Cm Gm
You know, like horses, and taking dumb pictures of your feet
You'll figure that out - I'm not worried about you.
