Well I hate talking about dorm rooms and moving out
G D B A
I hate talking about the future because the future is right now
G D B A
But I was desperate for your love, you were desperate for attention
G D B A
We were destined to grow up, but I was scared without direction
G D B A
Got a call from your mom, she said your brother hung himself
G D B A
He said he couldn't take his life and he couldn’t find himself

And I got scared

I found a picture of my dad from when he’s 19
G D B A
This is stupid and it’s sad that he is aging
G D B A
But I can’t stare in his eyes without feeling alive
G D B A
Without begging for time I think I still need his advice
G D B A
I knew a guy who knew a guy that killed a girl
G D B A
He said he didn’t mind the way that she would breathe

He said he didn’t mind the way that she would laugh at them

Well your favorite holiday is the Fourth of July

It’s like 90 degrees, but reminds you exactly like Christmas

I had a one night stand, but I never kissed her on the bed

Because I will grow up and I will act like him so I don’t have to pretend like I care when you leave
D F# G A
And I will sell out and I will write my songs about a boy and a girl who always get along
D F# G A
And I will drop out, and I will tell my friends that I have honors-diplomas and I have scholarships
D F# G A
But I will grow up and I will act like him so I don’t have to pretend like I care when you leave

But when you leave...

And you were walking down the aisles and I was sitting in the pews

And I was staring at the ceiling because I can’t stare at you

[Verse]
A D
They found a place where you can drink outside
G
And you were telling your friends that you can’t wait to get drunk
A D G
But you’re the type of girl that likes to write down her stories in a notebook
[Chorus]
B F#
And it gets scarier as the days go on
G F#
And it is harder for you to fake who you are
B F#
But you are beautiful, and this is oh so clean
G F#
So you can take what you want, fake a smile and I mean
B F#
That I need you but I hate all of your friends and the
G F#
Way that you act when we hang out with them
B F#
And I might move back home this fall
G F#
So I can finally gain control
B F#
And I might move back home this fall

So I can finally sleep again, finally sleep again
[Verse]
A D G
This is almost over now, I only have so much blood to spill
A D G
And you were painting it on my wall like you would do back when we were kids
A D G
But you’re the same person that I knew, you just got lost along the way
A D
And I still love you in that way
G
And that will probably never change
Probably never change

E C G D
If I don’t run away right now, then I will never leave this shithole town
E C
But I was voted back in school to succeed
G D
Now I am sitting here every night reading
E C
The same poems that you wrote for me
G D
And I was crying because I feel lonely
E C
My mom ran when she had to
G D
I never return what I steal
E C
I hated going to prom with her
G D
I probably should’ve taken you
E C
But I’m an asshole, asshole, yeah
G D
At least according to your friends
E C
But I love the way you smell tonight
G D
And I love the way this ends, alright
[Chorus]
B C
But we can only drown ourselves so quickly
D E
I was running on the shore, so maybe
B C
There was water in my lungs, I can’t breathe
D E
And this ship is going down with me
B C
So you can shut up, shut up, yeah, yeah
D
And you can take this like a man
B C D
Because a captain knows that what a captain does is between him and his friends
E C
And his friends
G D
And his friends
E C G D
And his friends
[Verse]
E C G D
And we were stealing 'cause we’re bored, not because we needed food
E C G D
And I was running with the wolves because I think that they like you
[Bridge]
E
But I will screw up, screw up
C
I will fuck up, fuck up
G D
But I will take back what is mine
E
But I will screw up, screw up

I will fuck up, fuck up

Your friends are sneaking through the windows

Take my hand and close your eyes with broken knees and glazed up eyes

I think that we can steal a car if everything falls into place
A F G F
Well I am here again in all these bullshit shows
A F G F
With all my dumbest friends who think it’s cool to smoke

A F
And I am running through your yard
G F
I was jumping over fences
A F
There is dirt in both my eyes
G F
Because your brother threw me down
A F
And I was sprinting down the street
G F
I think I've broken both my legs
A F
But I've been climbing up the street
G F
So I can get the fuck away
A F
And I am here again
G F
Locked up inside my room
A F
With all my asshole friends
G F
Sit back, enjoy the view
A F
And I am staring at the wall
G F
I am painting my own picture
A F
One where I don't move away
G F
And say "Oh, God, yeah do I miss her"

He said his sister’s still alive, but her kid’s on some new kind of drug
Em7 B
Help me to finally understand why the pain travels up
G D
From the pen to my hand, to my brain, through my lungs,
Em7 B G
Where I can’t breathe anymore because my oxygen ran low

She said it feels so great not to feel anything you gotta try it sometime, because it’s addicting

And I will sell out and I will write my songs about a boy and a girl who always get along

And I will drop out, and I will tell my friends that I have honors-diplomas and I have scholarships

But I will grow up and I will act like him so I don’t have to pretend like I care when you leave

But when you leave...

But when you leave...

And you were walking down the aisles and I was sitting in the pews
G
And I was staring at the ceiling because I can’t stare at you
B A
But you were walking down the aisles and I was sitting in the pews

And I was staring at the ceiling because I can’t stare at you

But you’re my best friend, so I will love you til the very, very, end
B A G
But you’re my best friend, so I will love you til the very, very, end

[Verse]
A D
They found a place where you can drink outside
G
And you were telling your friends that you can’t wait to get drunk
A D G
But you’re the type of girl that likes to write down her stories in a notebook
[Chorus]
B F#
And it gets scarier as the days go on
G F#
And it is harder for you to fake who you are
B F#
But you are beautiful, and this is oh so clean
G F#
So you can take what you want, fake a smile and I mean
B F#
That I need you but I hate all of your friends and the
G F#
Way that you act when we hang out with them
B F#
And I might move back home this fall
G F#
So I can finally gain control
B F#
And I might move back home this fall
G F#
So I can finally sleep again, finally sleep again
[Verse]
A D G
This is almost over now, I only have so much blood to spill
A D G
And you were painting it on my wall like you would do back when we were kids
A D G
But you’re the same person that I knew, you just got lost along the way
A D
And I still love you in that way
G
And that will probably never change
Probably never change
[Chorus]

And it gets scarier as the days go on

E C G D
If I don’t run away right now, then I will never leave this shithole town
E C
But I was voted back in school to succeed
G D
Now I am sitting here every night reading
E C
The same poems that you wrote for me
G D
And I was crying because I feel lonely
E C
My mom ran when she had to
G D
I never return what I steal
E C
I hated going to prom with her
G D
I probably should’ve taken you
E C
But I’m an asshole, asshole, yeah
G D
At least according to your friends
E C
But I love the way you smell tonight
G D
And I love the way this ends, alright
[Chorus]
B C
But we can only drown ourselves so quickly
D E
I was running on the shore, so maybe
B C
There was water in my lungs, I can’t breathe
D E
And this ship is going down with me
B C
So you can shut up, shut up, yeah, yeah
D
And you can take this like a man
B C D
Because a captain knows that what a captain does is between him and his friends
E C
And his friends
G D
And his friends
E C G D
And his friends
[Verse]
E C G D
And we were stealing 'cause we’re bored, not because we needed food
E C G D
And I was running with the wolves because I think that they like you
[Bridge]
E
But I will screw up, screw up
C
I will fuck up, fuck up
G D
But I will take back what is mine

But I will screw up, screw up

Well your parents said it’s cool if we sleep in your room
A F
And I am laying on your bed
G F
Your friends are sneaking through the windows
A F G F
Take my hand and close your eyes with broken knees and glazed up eyes
A F G F
I think that we can steal a car if everything falls into place
A F G F
Well I am here again in all these bullshit shows
A F G F
With all my dumbest friends who think it’s cool to smoke
A F
Well I am staring at the ground
G F
I was counting all my toes
A F G F
Because the kid in front of me I think that he will slit my throat
[Chorus]

But I was nothing more than a tire swing

And this was nothing more than a high school thing

A F G
A F
And I am running through your yard
G F
I was jumping over fences
A F
There is dirt in both my eyes
G F
Because your brother threw me down
A F
And I was sprinting down the street
G F
I think I've broken both my legs
A F
But I've been climbing up the street
G F
So I can get the fuck away
A F
And I am here again
G F
Locked up inside my room
A F
With all my asshole friends
G F
Sit back, enjoy the view
A F
And I am staring at the wall
G F
I am painting my own picture
A F
One where I don't move away
G F
And say "Oh, God, yeah do I miss her"

I had a friend, who moved to San Francisco, yeah
G D
He said the air was cleaner there
Em7 B G D
He said his sister’s still alive, but her kid’s on some new kind of drug
Em7 B
Help me to finally understand why the pain travels up
G D
From the pen to my hand, to my brain, through my lungs,
Em7 B G
Where I can’t breathe anymore because my oxygen ran low
D A B G
She said it feels so great not to feel anything you gotta try it sometime, because it’s addicting

Well I threw away my stories, because I hated growing up

And I wrote them down in memory so I can carve them with my mouth

But I still have all these memories that I can carve out with my mouth

And you were honest to think you’re lovely
