A#m
Look no farther than the father's who go farther than they should
D#m7
To the point where we're surrounded by the scars behind their hoods
A#m D#m7
and who no no is gonna teach them wrong from right?
who's gonna tell them it's alright?
F D#m7
pass the just (?) cigarette
F D#m7
take these brain cells out my head
F D#m7
fill my lungs, drain my heart
Chorus
A#m D#m7
'cause this smoke cloud's giving me shelter
G#m
and I feel much better
F
and demons wave the white flags for me
A#m D#m7
'til my bones keep pleading to walk out
G#m
from all of this fall out
F
but there's no way that I could leave
F#
so I don't leave
F
turn the bitterness to sweet
D#m7 F
I need to find a new release
A#m
so I'm trading blues for green

hey no no no no

Now I'm a simple man I don't even have a phone

If I did I wouldn't pick it up I want to be alone
A#m
I don't trust anyone in this one-track town
D#m7
If I walk (?) then my eyes fall down

Who is gonna teach them wrong from right?
