For 'easier chords' transpose -5 and place capo on fret 5. * - single strum [Intro] C G Dm G [Verse 1]
C                G
  She asks for a light

      Dm                   G
As our secrets spill on the window sill

C                   G
  We're buyin' more time

        Dm                     G
While we kill ourselves as we both inhale
[Pre-Chorus]
F                        G
Making believe there's a future

F                    G
Is it naive to think we could work?

    F                       G
The second it's out, then I lose her

      F                    G          N.C.
We're already here, so one more won't hurt
It won't hurt [Chorus]
    C                  G
But all that we are is all that we'll ever be

       Am           G          F
'Cause he's the one waitin' at home

    C                    G
She holds my guitar as I pluck out a melody

        Am      G          D7/F#
There's only so far we can go

        F            G        Am
Next to you but I'll never be close

             F                 G              C
So take your time while you're mine and smoke slow
[Verse 2]
          G
Breakin' away

        F                   G
For the hell of it, started innocent

C             G               F
  Telling you things that I've never said

    G
Hope I don't regret this
[Pre-Chorus]
F                         G
Making believe that we're clueless

F                        G
One little spark that we won't put out

F                  G
Making a million excuses

       F                     G
'Cause isn't it fun just for now?
[Chorus]
    C                  G
But all that we are is all that we'll ever be

       Am           G          F
'Cause he's the one waitin' at home

    C                    G
She holds my guitar as I pluck out a melody

        Am      G          D7/F#
There's only so far we can go

        F            G        Am
Next to you but I'll never be close

             F                 G              C
So take your time while you're mine and smoke slow
[Bridge]
Am             G                             F                        F G
  Addicted to illusions of a love that never was and never will be anyway, ooh

Am                   G                                  F                         F G
  And nicotine don't taste the same if I'm not with you savouring every breath we take

Am        G     F       C
Play with fire, take me higher
[Chorus]
C*                 G*
All that we are is all that we'll ever be

       Am*          G*          F*
'Cause he's the one waitin' at home

    C                    G
She holds my guitar as I pluck out a melody

        Am      G          D7/F#
There's only so far we can go

        F            G        Am
Next to you but I'll never be close

             F                 G              N.C.
So take your time while you're mine and smoke slow
