VERSE 1:
E IB reC#mmembeAr a rooftop making out
downstairs the coppers screamed so loud
I waited so long for that night
Then I just turned away
B AnC#md I knAow every street on the West Side
E BuBt I Awas lost, unfound, not right
Maybe there's something wrong inside
VERSE:
E NBow C#mI've Agot no where to go, my hands is all that I've got
I'm so sorry for so many things, that I haven't said yet
B ThC#mis is Athe waiting room I spend my whole life in
E ThBey gAave me a thousand hands so I could count my sins
If I'm lucky, maybe I'll finish before the roof caves in
INTERLUDE:
E I BlostA my life on the first try
You found it miles down the line
A swollen face with three first names
You kiss the taste back in my tongue
You suck the smoke out of my lungs
And then we slept for days and days, and days
E WhBen wAe woke up, my heart had choked up
Had to say I love you way too soon
But right there on your couch you loved me too
Right there on your couch you loved me too

VERSE:
E NBineC#mteen Aand sober once or twice
I caught some junky's bad advice
Up to my eyes in others problems
Couldn't see I'd never solve them
B AmC#m I onlAy skin and bone and piss and pills unknown
E I BtookA my lousy shot at public recognition
Could never pull the trigger if I wasn't shaking
OUTRO:
E I BlostA my life on the first try

A swollen face with three first names
You kiss the taste back in my tongue
You suck the smoke out of my lungs
And then we slept for days and days, and days
E WhBen wAe woke up, my heart had choked up
Had to say I love you way too soon
But right there on your couch you loved me too
Right there on your couch you loved me too
