[Verse]
Abm Gb
Just a few minutes after taking them I realized
G#m B Gb
Hundreds of buzzing flies were all over me
Abm Gb
I looked up and there you were, reading
Abm B
You were on your own, you were on vacation
Gb
You were on vacation
B
Vacation means "leave"
Gb
Means "obliterate all prior things"
[Verse]
Bbm B
Here, why don't I try
Ebm
Why don't I try to make you mine?
Bbm B Gb
Why is a lack of imagination the crime?
Bbm B
Why don't I try
Ebm B
Why don't I try to make you mine?
Bbm B Gb
Why don't I back you up against this moment?
[Chorus]
Abm
So when you finally go
Bbm Ebm
And when you choose to go
Db
I resume my little road
Abm
And nobody needs to know
Ebm
Will know that I ever meant to leave
Db
My little lower road
[Instrumental]

B Abm Ebm Gb
I watch the bird feeder out back in my parents' yard
Abm B
The weight of that bluejay
Gb
The bully steals it all
Abm Gb
And what must happen in your mind
Abm B
When you create those silences?
Gb
Well never mind, I don't want to see
B Gb
I know it's got nothing to do with me
B
Here, why don't I try
Ebm
Why don't I try to move aside?
B Gb
I'm still soft, I'm still in my prime
Bbm B
Why don't I try
Ebm
Why don't I try to move aside
B Bbm B Gb
I'm still soft, it's still my time
[Chorus] x2
Db Abm
And when you finally go
Ebm
When you choose to go
Db
I resume my little road
Abm
And nobody needs to know
Gb Ebm
Will know that I ever meant to meant to leave
Db
My little lower road
