Intro:
C - Am - G - F
(This applies to the faint synth chords before the opening hook too)
Verse 1:
       Am         G                    F                 C
It was Don Delilo whiskey, neat, and a blinking midnight clock

 C            G               F            G
Speakers on a tv stand just a turntable to watch

        Am                 G                   F                 C
And the smoke came out our mouths on all those hooded-sweatshirt walks

          Am     G  F
We were a stroke of luck

          Am  G         F
We were a goldmine that gutted us
Chorus 1:
C                         G            F              C
And from the sidelines you see me run until I'm out of breath

                         G                  F           G
Living the good life, I left for dead, the sorrowful midwest

       G      F
Well I did my best to keep my head
C - Am - G - F x2 Verse 2:
        Am                     G                 F                  C
It was grass stained jeans and incompletes and a girl from class to touch

          C             G                     F            G
But you think about yourself too much and you ruin who you love

      Am                  G                 F         C
Well, all these claims at consciousness, my stray dog freedom

              Am   G    F
Let?s have a nice clean cut

       Am     G       F
Like a bag we buy and divvy up
Chorus 2:
C                        G             F                 C
And from the sidelines I see you run until you're out of breath.

                               G              F            G
And all those white lines that sped us up, we hurry to our death

        G        F
Well, I lagged behind so you got ahead.
C - Am - G - F x5
