🎸 Verse 1: D There's a car on the corner A Bm She's waiting for me to come out D A And I ain't said a word in weeks Bm These old habits'll weigh you down D A I can't talk to God, I can't light it up Bm G I can't take something that I'm unworthy of D A You might sing it wrong, clumsy Bm Off-key, top of your lungs G
Smile at everyone 🎸 Pre-Chorus: (F) D A You don't ease up on me Bm A G You know I stay in a hurry, babe D A G I miss a lot of good things 🎸 Chorus: (F) D If I throw my body A On a plane, in a car, on the ground Bm A G I'm living like I'll never die D A And your ax is not a key 🎸 Verse 2: D There's a lock on the door A Bm That costs more than my car, babe D And I ain't ever come close A Bm To crossing that threshold anyway D A I can't hear our song on the radio Bm G Without a clear recollection of the touch-and-go D A I can't prize my certainty Bm Let bygones fade away For my own sake 🎸 Pre-Chorus: G D A I walk a paper-thin line Bm A G I know there's something for everyone D A G But I've got a one-track mind 🎸 Chorus: (F) D If I throw myself to the wolves A I did it all for the glory Bm A G Not the fruit rotting in my shade D A Who's begging to get inside 🎸 Verse 3: D There's a reason I fold A Bm I'm sure it'll become clear D A You've been proving yourself wrong Bm With or without me here D You don't look around A You don't check the score Bm You cause all that trouble A And you beg for more D A Bm G On every warm horizon of what I let disappear 🎸 Pre-Chorus: (F) D A You don't ease up on me Bm A G You know I stay in a hurry, babe D A G I miss a lot of good things 🎸 Chorus: (F) D And when I throw myself to the wolves A I do it all for the glory Bm A G Not the wind shaking off my leaves D A Not begging for a key 🎸 Instrumental: G D A Bm A G D A G D A Bm A G D A G D A Bm A G D A G D A Bm A G D A
