Am 
I'm going back home, 
C 
Gonna work for my own, 
G 
Gonna try and forget what you've done to this heart of mine, 
G 
And just keep lying and say I'm fine. 


Am 
I keep kicking my wall, 
C 
Drinking and smoking, 
G 
To keep away the feeling, 
G 
That I'm just gonna fall. 


Am 
Pushed a razor against me a few times, 
C 
Spent most my days in bed, trying not to cry. 
G 
All I've ever known is you, 
G 
Guess I can't say I know what to do. 


Am 
Talked to your mom the other week, 
C 
Told me you'd gone to some East-coast beach, 
G 
Searching for one of those record deals 
G 
With the devil right behind, biting your heels. 


Am 
I hope you get one, 
C                C 
And I'll be here killing time with a bottle, 
G 
Wiping away each and every little tear. 
G 
(Instrumental) 

Am 
Got into it with this one girl, 
C 
Been trying to give her my whole world, 
G 
But I know she's not quite the pearl 
G 
That I know you to be. 


Am 
She's more of a diamond, 
C 
And she barely keeps me from dying. 
G 
We have sex without much protection, 
G 
Probably to keep us together, I reckon. 


Am 
All I've got is half of her, 
C                         C 
And whatever drug gets me higher; don't know where I wanna go, 
G 
So I just wanted you to know, 
G 
I'm not doing too poor-ly. 


Am 
Don't know if I'll make it past twenty, 
C 
Since it's sometimes hard when you're not with me, 
G 
But I don't blame you, 
G 
Everything I do ends up being shitty. 


Am 
Just keep thinking of you, 
C 
Choking on the memories 
G 
Of hazel eyes and swimming pools, 
G 
Trying to believe that I'm not the fool. 

Am 
Going back home to good old New Mexico, 
C 
Gonna try to forget what I know, 
G 
And just go and go and go 
G 
To wherever and whatever's unknown.
