s = slide p = pull-off C Am Em G C Am Em G C Am Em G C Am Em G [Verse 1]
C                     Em            G
Barely breathing, the man inside my head is beating

C            Am            Em                 G
On me like a drum, man I'd kill to still feel young

    C         Am        Em               G
And days keep flying by wondering if I'm still high

   C             Am                Em
Or is this all a dream till I wake up?
[Verse 2]
G          C                      Am             Em
And if you play your cards right, then you might see

G        C              Am              Em               G
That I'm dealing with a shifty hand and lying through my teeth

         C            Am                 Em                  G
And I'll go a million miles an hour, and set this God Damned house on fire

C           Am             Em   G
Smoke a cigarette before I leave

     C                     Am         Em
Yeah that sounds pretty on brand for me

    G
For me
[Chorus]
               C
'Cause you and I in a room

     Em       G
Is a bad combination

    C
Any call after two

     Em        G
Is a bad conversation

         C        Am
And it's all gas, cut the breaks

    Em                 G
And drinking late at degenerate rates

C              Am               Em
Calling out to God to give me a sign

                G            C
'Cause I'm in a bad state of mind
[Interlude] Am Em G C Am Em G [Verse 3]
    C     Am            Em               G
And maybe you could be, something that I can't believe

    C             Am              Em                 G
And could it be a lie? Well don't act like you're surprised

    C         Am         Em              G
And days keep adding up, finding ways to still feel young

    C                  Am             Em
And fighting back them heavy hands of time
[Bridge]
G          Am                               C
So you can lay your cards down, if you want to

           Em                               G
'Cause the dealer has the winning hand, and you were born to lose

    Am                               C
And good is what you want to be, but that's a side you'll never see

       Em                        G
'Cause fuckin' ups way easier to do

     C                     Am        Em
Yeah that sounds pretty on brand for you

    G
For you
[Out-Chorus]
               C
'Cause you and I in a room

     Em       G
Is a bad combination

    C
Any call after two

     Em        G
Is a bad conversation

         C        Am
And it's all gas, cut the breaks

    Em                 G
And drinking late at degenerate rates

C              Am               Em
Calling out to God to give me a sign

                G            C   Am Em
'Cause I'm in a bad state of mind

            G          C     Am Em
Oh I'm in a bad state of mind

               C
'Cause you and I in a room

     Em       G
Is a bad combination

    C
Any call after two

     Em        G
Is a bad conversation

         C        Am
And it's all gas, cut the breaks

C              Am               Em
Calling out to God to give me a sign

                G            C   Am Em
'Cause I'm in a bad state of mind

            G          C     Am Em
Oh I'm in a bad state of mind
