Verse
C                         G
And you're riding in back lying here on your back

F                            C
you're as serious as a heart attack

C                             G
all those picturesque moments the sunsets glowin'

F                       C
through the back of the van
Chorus
Am                                G
and the water is diamonds there's something you're hiding

F                    C
it's just your fatal flaw

Am                                    G
and you're trying to compose but just being this happy

        F5                F#m             C-G-C
is like walking around in somebody else's clothes
Verse
C                         G
and you all think I'm stupid, too nice, too aloof

F                            C
there's no winning here at all

C                             G
been on the road for so long singing self-obsessed songs

F                       C
I’m always coming as I’m going
Chorus
Am                                G
and the water is diamonds there's something you're hiding

F                    C
you wish you could just shout it out

Am                                    G
"just fucking love me, I’m tired of leaving

    F5           F#m             C-G-C
and waking up in somebody else's clothes"
Verse
C                         G
my dad's been in jail for two halves of a year

F                       C
I got my first letter today it was simple and sad

         G                 F              C
it was painfully clear and this is how it read:

Am                                G
"my daughter this time well the water's not diamonds

F                    C
I’m a fraud and I am old

Am                             G
and they found me out but just being your father

        F5                F#m             C-G-C
is like walking around in somebody else's clothes.

        C      G        C
I'll be out by the first snow

        C        G      C
wearing somebody else's clothes"
