[Intro] G Cmaj7 G Cmaj7 [Verse 1]
  G
Midnight, you could see me dangling

  Cmaj7                                  G
Glow like a cherry falling, now it's a downpour

                                          Cmaj7
You could see me racing the rain to the ground floor

           N.C.                      G
You're the only thing I'll wait around for

                                           Cmaj7
Maybe when you get off of work, could you meet me?

                                    G
We could go barreling down on the main street

                                                Cmaj7
You could try watching while I run through the high-beams
[Instrumental] G Cmaj7 G Cmaj7 [Bridge]
            Em             G               Cmaj7
'Cause if I didn't have a mean bone in my body

    Em                G             Cmaj7
I'd find some other way to cause you pain

Em             G              Cmaj7
I won't bother telling you I'm sorry

    Em                 G          Cmaj7
For something that I'm gonna do again
[Verse 2]
                       G
When I could spend the weekend out on a bender

         Cmaj7
Do I get callous or do I stay tender?

                G
Which of these is worse and which is better?

         Cmaj7
Dying to myself, virtually a massacre

  Em             G            Cmaj7
A character of somebody's invention

  Em          G            Cmaj7
A martyr in another passion play

  Em                 G             Cmaj7
I guess I don't mind losing my conviction

         Em          G           Cmaj7
If it's all relative fiction anyway
[Verse 3]
                       G                             Cmaj7
'Cause I don't need a savior, I need you to take me home

                   G                             Cmaj7
I don't need your help, I need you to leave me alone

                    G
I'm out where the drunks at the bar talk over the band

   Cmaj7
I try to express, I can't understand

   G
I beat at the keys, I bloody my hands

       Cmaj7
'Til you hear me

     Em              G
I've got no business praying

    Cmaj7
I'm finished being good

          Em            G              Cmaj7
Now I can finally be okay in not the way I thought I should

    G  Cmaj7  G  Cmaj7
Mm-mm
