Intro: A Dmaj7 A Dmaj7
A
When you make it to your driveway,
Dmaj7
Will you call to let me know that you're ok?
A
And when you make it to your bedroom,
Dmaj7
Do you collapse on your bed right away?
A Dmaj7
Or do you lay and think about how fucking lonely you've become?
A
You're obsessed with revenge and it's starting again,
Dmaj7
Bad tattoos oh and losing the saddest of friends.
F#m E Dsus2
Ache through the days, 'cause you'll never mend your ways.
A Dmaj7 A Dmaj7
A Dmaj7
When you make a decent living, will you buy me a train set and a hat?
A Dmaj7
So that I can sit alone in my room, sending people away from the ones they love.
A Dmaj7
Or crash them into buildings, explosions, derailments and screaming children.
A
Oh my god, I think I'm in love.
Dmaj7 F#m
Yes, I know that this must be love when you ache through the days,
E Dsus2
Because you'll never mend your ways.
