hit the scene and slow

spending all your time with some girl

you'll never get to know

wound uptight
G Em
dressed all in white

some torn main sail
C/A
blowing out to drift
A C/A
leave you even if
[Verse 2]

you live up in your head
A C
scared of every little noise
G Em
someone always breaking in accidently
A C
using nothing but their voice
G C G Em D* D A
shrill and small echo down the hall repeating pet names
C/A A C/A C#-5 Dsus D#
see it in your eyes, you're only passing by

go by go by
Em C#-5 Dsus Esus C B7
go by go by
[Verse 3]
E* G A C
someone's in the way pretty words and inside slurs
G
all the things they have to say
Em A C
to perform the work that they've rehearsed
G C
it's a waste of time
G Em D* D A
I put it behind me once and for all
C/A A C/A C#-5 Dsus D#
and let the hype decline if the problem wasn't mine
[Chorus]
Em C#-5 Dsus Esus C B7
go by go by

go by go by
Em C#-5 Dsus Esus C B7
go by go by
Em C#-5 Dsus Esus C
