Bright Eyes - Southern state

Well the ^Fsongs you sung spiraled And ^Amhung 'round like echoes Or^Bb ripples on a pond ^C

So you ^Fcircled the globe Spent a ^Amyear on the road Withou^Bbt ever going ^Chome

More than a ^Fcouple of days, Then you'd ^Amleave right away Run to a^Bb girl you barely ^Cknow

But you ^Flike how she sings And you ^Amcan't help but think That there's^Bb something that she ^Cknows and could teach you

^Bb While you're sleeping in that ^Csouthern state ^Bb Where the bars are filled with ^Cpeople you can't hate But ^Bbtry as you try You ^Cstill can't relate to them And you ^Bbdrink that whiskey down^C As they ask you^Am,

"Are you who you ^Csay you ^Fare'" Are you who you ^Bbsay that you are'^F Are you who you ^Bbsay that you are, ^Cyou… Are you who you ^Bbsay that you are'^F Are you who you ^Bbsay you ^Fare' ^{E Bb} The fact that ^Cyou can't tell makes us like you even more

So now you're ^Ftrying again Or just ^Amvisiting friends One ha^Bbd just had his heart ^Cbroke

For the first ^Ftime in his life He real^Amized there are times When you^Bb can't make it a^Clone

But now you're ^Fgiving advice As if ^Amyou had the right To ^Bbuse a word like "^Clove"

It's a ne^Fgotiable term What gets ^Amsaid's not what's heard So it's ^Bbdifferent then for ^Ceveryone

But you're still^Bb hanging 'round that^C college town With you^Bbr…your new life your new lo^Cver you've found And you're ^Bbkeeping her up at night,^C bringing her down She'll watch you ^Bbdrink yourself to de^Cath But ^Amwon't ask you,

"is this ^Creally what you ^Fwant'" Is this ^Bbreally what you ^Fwant' Is this rea^Bblly what you is this ^Cwhat... Is this rea^Bblly what you wa^Fnt' Is this ^Bbreally what you w^Fant' ^{E Bb} C F, Am Are you just sticking with it now because it's all you've got' Bb C F, Am Are you just sticking with it now because it's all you've got' Yeah that's it, I think you're ^Bbsticking with me now Because ^CI'm all you've got
