E Bm C#m A5 E
If my name falls past your tongue and teeth,
E Bm C#m A5 E Bm C#m A5 E
Make sure it's in front of my eyes and not behind your cheap talk and eager lies.
E Bm C#m A5 E
The things you do and the people you talk to don't impress me or my friends in any way
Take the easy way out and fall over the cheap talk you send away
E Bm A5 E
I'm gonna keep getting up even when you keep trying to pull me down
E Bm A5
If there's one thing that's not big enough for the both of us, it would be called this town
E C#m A5
Stay away and stay out, I hope you never come back
Am
Remember these words when you've got nothing to prove
E Bm C#m A5 E (Repeat verse rhythm)
The last thing I need is for words to sway past my ears
Through different voices than the person that first spit them out
E Bm C#m A5 E
The things you do and the people you talk to don't impress me or my friends in any way
Take the easy way out and fall over the cheap talk you send away
E Bm A5 E
I'm gonna keep getting up even when you keep trying to pull me down
E Bm A5
If there's one thing that's not big enough for the both of us, it would be called this town
E C#m A5
Stay away and stay out, I hope you never come back
Am
Remember these words when you've got nothing to prove
Bridge: C#m A5 E
Sometimes the suburbs of this big city know how to fuck up my sleepy eyes x2
C#m A5 E
Just like you want to x2
E Bm A5 E
I'm gonna keep getting up even when you keep trying to pull me down
E Bm A5
If there's one thing that's not big enough for the both of us, it would be called this town
E C#m A5
Stay away and stay out, I hope you never come back
Remember these words when you've got nothing--
E Bm A5
If you think this song's about you, don't worry it's not
A5 A5 A5 E
I wouldn't waste my breath on you.
