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