Hello, there's a place I've been going

There's a place I've been going

I've seen Greg and he was like
D               Em    F#m
"I've seen your friends at the birthday party
       G         A
They were kinda fucked up before it even started
D               Em      F#m
They were gonna go to the Pinegrove show
  G              A
They didn't know about all the weird stuff
           D        Em      F#m
So they just left it" (So they just left it)
  G           A
I was wasted (I was wasted)
D    Em  F#m   G   A
And cold, minding my business


Chorus:
Then I've seen the girls and they were all like
D    Em       F#m
"Do you wanna come and get fucked up?"
    G              A
Listen, I got myself a missus, so there can't be any kissing
 D          Em         F#m
"No, don't be a fridge, you better wise up, kid
    G              A
It's all Adderall now, it doesn't make you wanna do it"

Verse 2:
D    Em    F#m       G             A
"This ain't going well", I thought that I was stuck in Hell
D        Em          F#m
In a boring conversation with a girl called Mel
 G       A
About her friend in Cincinnati called Matty as well
D        Em          F#m
You pulled away when I went in for the kiss
G       A
No, it wasn't a diss
 D           Em            F#m
You put the tap on to cover up the sound of your piss
G           A
After four years, don't you think I'm over all this?
 D        Em          F#m
"That's rich from a man who can't shit in a hotel room
 G       A
He's gotta share for a bit"
 D        Em          F#m
You make a little hobby out of going to the lobby
 G         A
To get things that they don't have

Chorus:
        D           Em
Does it go through ya when I'm talking to ya?
 F#m       G
You know that I could sue ya if we're married
     A
And you fuck up again
D           Em            F#m
Impress myself with stealth and bad health
     G            A
And my wealth and progressive causes
         D      Em    F#m
Drink your kombucha and buy an Ed Ruscha
      G              A
Surely, it's a print 'cause I'm not made of it
 A
Look, the fucking state of it
 D
I came pretty late to it
 Em      F#m     G        A
We can still be mates 'cause it's only a picture


Outro:
        D Em F#m G  A
All your friends in one place
         D  Em F#m G   A
Oh, we're a scene, whatever that means
         D  Em F#m G   A
I depend on my friends to stay clean
D  Em F#m G   A
As sad as it seems
D  Em F#m G   A
As sad as it seems
D  Em F#m G   A
As sad as it seems

D  Em F#m G   A
