[Intro] C F Am G C F Am G E F Am G C C F Am G C F G E F Am G C [Verse]
C
bug bitten, beautiful

     F
and down on our luck

   Am
the days they all grow shorter

       G
as the bottles pile up

           C
wrapped in scars and rags
and bad tattoos
      F
not a tether left to cut

           Am
laughing and singing

        G                C    (Palm Mute)
all the way back down to hell

        C
Singin’ we can’t help you

F
help yourself

          Am
but we can promise
life’s much better
            G
once you’ve tumbled off the shelf

   C
so burn that suit and tie

              F
tear down the walls in which you’re caged

               Am             G        C
have they ever truly made you happy anyway?
[Instrumental] C E Am F C E F C E Am F [Verse]
C
Never bite your tongue

              F
just let that whiskey bite your throat

          Am
cause the words you scream

                 G
are so much more important than you know

           C
success is not about the money

         F
and it’s not your social class

       Am               G
it’s about finding your happiness

   C  (Palm Mute)
so get up off your ass

    C  E  Am
and go outside

   F                            G
I promise that you’ll never see more clear

      C            E
don’t be afraid to live

            Am            F
go find out who you truly are

             Am                G
cause no one needs to know you more

            C
than you my dear
[Instrumental] C F Am G E F Am G C [Verse]
              C
You know I’ve made my bad decisions

    F
and I can live with that

      Am
cause even on the worst days

       G
life’s never all that bad

            C              E
to feel the starlight on a freight train

         Am           F
see the sunrise on the road

           Am
so goddamn beautiful

       G              C
and it never will get old

             C C
Unlike these darkrooms

     E E               Am
with cracked walls and carpets

     F                   G
so stagnant, alone, grey and cold

          C        E
and every time I come back

         Am            F
one less tree one more road

        Am            G       C
I don’t think this is home anymore
[Instrumental] Em F (x3) Am G C [Verse]
C                              F
So tear down and clear out and build up

                Am                 G
why can’t these people just be satisfied?

           C              E
cause they need another strip mall

          Am          F
and they need another lane

        Am             G               C
on that road that over beauty has been paved

     C               F
And I can't help but think about

        Am                         G
do they understand what they've destroyed?

        C          E
another farm road replaced

       Am       F
with a toll way today

           Am           G       C
this don't feel like my home anymore
[Shift to 3/4 Time Signature] [Verse]
         C
So as of late the only words

       F
that I sing are of

        Am
gettin' back to you

          G
and outta here

                C          E
cause I've been down on my health

    Am         F
and down on my luck

    Am          G           C
and you make me feel better dear.
[Outro] C F Am Dm Am F Am Dm C
