[Verse]
D#maj7The longer that I'm out A#here the better you sound
You're scrunching up your D#maj7face in this picture I Ffound
And I'm chasing after D#maj7you steadily losing gGmround
F D# (strum twice)
I don't wanna forget so I'm writing it down
A# Gm F A# A#2
D#Have you ever No never never
A#I find that hard to believe
D#So let's burn the furniture
To see how angryA# a fire could make me
Now you say that there's D#someone that you Fneed to recoGmnnect with A#
Some scarecrow from hiD#gh school that you Floved but never Gmslept withA#
A baby with a D#pipe dream playing Fhopscotch on your GmbandaA#ges
And I'm singing all his D#maj7songs while I sleep on your A#couch
I'm coughing up a D#maj7lung but I'm covering my Fmouth
And I paint you on the D#maj7wall
Yellow red green and brGmown
F D# (strum twice)
I miss you all the time but I'm blocking it out
A# Gm F A# A#2
D#Are you better No never never
A#What does that say about me
Now let's break the D#smoke alarm
To see how scaredA# locked windows'll make me
So you say there's a D#stranger staring Fsideways in a Gmdeep freeze A#
A loner draped in D#ivy playing Fslumlord in his Gmcity dream A#
A faker with an D#art form pulling Fmagic tricks on the Gmweak girls up his A#sleeve
And I'm choking rightD#maj7 along with the words in myA# throat
I'm falling back in D#maj7love with the letter you Fwrote
And I think that I was D#maj7wrong but I guess I don't kGmnow
F D# (strum twice)
I figure that I'll wait until you tell me so
