[Verse 1]
D
We broke up on Independence Day
Crying while the next door neighbors raged
G
Flashes of color on your face
D
The bass thumping, the chanting names
Asus4
Our cat running under the bed
Cadd9 D
With his tail between his legs
[Verse 2]
D
Can of soda shaken up
With every truth, the sky erupts
G
And we're still pulling on the tab
D
Foaming sugar in our laps
Asus4
Sparkler in my throat
Cadd9
Can we just take it all back?
Asus4
Join the neighbors and go dancing
Cadd9 D
With a rocket and a six pack
[Chorus]
G
I am living life like writing my first draft
D
Cause there is nothing to it if I can't edit the past
Asus4
And even if I could, it would kill me to look back
D G
No, I don't want to see the other path
D G
I don't want to see that other path
[Verse 3 ]
D
Oh, to think a couple weeks before
Night driving, headlight corridor
G
That deer ran straight into your door
D
Who hit who, I'm still not sure
Asus4
But we both made sounds
Cadd9 D
I'd never heard us make before
[Verse 4]
D
Oh, what if we hadn't been running late?
Oh, what if I forgot to hit the brakes?
G
What if that beast had sealed our fate?
D
Dug us both a single grave
Asus4
Yeah, well I thought it'd bring us closer
Cadd9
Yeah, I thought it was a sign
Asus4
But all it did was drive the point home
Cadd9 D
In my body and my mind
[Chorus]
G
That I'm living life like writing my first draft
D
Cause there is nothing to it if I can't edit the past
Asus4
And even if I could, it would kill me to look back
D G
No, I don't want to see the other path
D G
I don't want to see the other path
D G
I don't want to see that other path
D G
I don't want to see that other path
D G
I don't want to see it
D G
I don't want to see it
D G D G
I don't want to see it-i--i
[Chorus]
G
Living life like writing my first draft
D
Cause there is nothing to it if I can't edit the past
Asus4
And even if I could, it would kill me to look back
D G
No, I don't want to see the other path
D G
I don't want to see the other path
D G
No, I don't want to see that other path
D G
I don't want to see that other path
[Outro]

No, I don't want to see it
D G
I don't want to see that other path
