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’^Amd leave 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??^Bb?s something that sh^Ce knows and could teach you

^Bb While you’re sleeping in tha^Ct southern 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 yo^Cu say yo^Fu are?” 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’r^Fe trying 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^C alone

But now you’r^Fe giving advice As if ^Amyou had the right To ^Bbuse a word like ?^C??love”

It’s a ^Fnegotiable term What gets ^Amsaid’s not what’s heard So it’^Bbs different then fo^Cr everyone

But you're still^Bb hanging ‘round th^Cat college town With you^Bbr…your new life your new l^Cover you’ve found And you’r^Bbe keeping her up at nigh^Ct, bringing her down She’ll watch yo^Bbu drink yourself to ^Cdeath But ^Amwon’t ask you,

“is thi^Cs really what yo^Fu want?” 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??^Bb?re sticking with me now Because ^CI’m all you’ve got
