[Intro]
D D A G x3
D A A G G
[Verse]
D
I’m looking for the upsides
G D
to these panic-attack nights
A G
where I’m staying in eating take-out food by TV light
D G D
I’m trying to play the b-side to this awkward life of mine
A G
You could flip me over I’d sing a few lines about how
[Pre Chorus]
G A
I’m so used to shooting myself in the kneecaps
G A
standing in the way of progress or letting down my friends
[Chorus]
D
I’m nailing shards of hope together
G A
to put something over my head
Bm
because you know here it’s always raining
G A
and it happened again. It happened again
D
She said, “I let this slide when we were younger
G A
You know you don’t have to write like this
Bm
The whole world’s full of losers
G A
If you get a chance to win, take it”
[Interlude]
D D A G x3
D A A G G
[Verse]
D G
I stood on the roof with Matt and Molly
D
Watched the gray slide off the city
G
because it’s finally spring
D G
We rode our bikes over to 6th Street
D A G D
to Washington Square Park to see if the tides would turn for me
[Chorus]
D
I’m nailing shards of hope together
G A
to put something over my head
Bm
because you know here it’s always raining
G A
and it happened again. It happened again
D
She said, “I let this slide when we were younger
G A
You know you don’t have to write like this
Bm
The whole world’s full of losers
G A
If you get a chance to win, take it”
[Outro]
Bm D G G
D G
I left a lot of blood in California
A
on our first trip out west
Bm D G
I was younger and restless back then
D G
and I thought, if no one’s in my corner
A
since everyone left
Bm D G
I’d better make it worth it
D
I left a lot of blood in California on our first trip out west
A G
I was younger and restless back then and I thought,
D
if no one’s in my corner since everyone left
A G
I’d better make it worth it
D
I left a lot of blood in California on our first trip out west
N.C.
I was younger and restless back then
