  Summer went away, still the yearning stays

  I play it cool with the best of them

  I wait patiently, he's gonna notice me
          G                           Bm

  Anyway

  I hear it in your voice, you're smokin' with your boys
Gbm            G
  I touch my phone as if it's your face

  I didn't choose this town, I dream of getting out
Gbm              G                       Bm

  All my days

Chorus:
G                    A                    D
  From sprinkler splashes to fireplace ashes
            Bm
  I waited ages to see you there
G                   A              D
  I searched the party of better bodies
           Bm
  Just to learn that you never cared

  You're on your own, kid
                      D
  You always have been

Verse 2:
D
  I see the great escape, so long Daisy Mae
Gbm              G
  I picked the petals, he loves me not
D
  Something different bloomed, writing in my room
Gbm           G                     Bm
  I play my songs in the parking lot
     Bm  
  I run away

Chorus:
G                    A                    D
  From sprinkler splashes to fireplace ashes
               Bm
  I called a taxi to take me there
G                   A              D
  I searched the party of better bodies
              Bm
  Just to learn that my dreams aren't rare
G                   A
  You're on your own, kid
                      G
  You always have been

Chorus:
G                    A                    D
  From sprinkler splashes to fireplace ashes
              Bm
  I gave my blood, sweat and tears for this
G             A                     D
  I hosted parties and starved my body
                Bm
  Like I'd be saved by a perfect kiss
G                     A                 D
  The jokes weren't funny, I took the money
                    Bm
  My friends from home don't know what to say
G              A                        D
  I looked around in a blood-soaked gown
                 Bm
  And I saw something they can't take away
G                             A
  'Cause there were pages turned
                      D
  With the Bridges burned
                   Bm
  Everything you lose is a step you take
G                            A
  So make the friendship bracelets
                       D
  Take the moment and taste it
               Bm
  You got no reason to be afraid
G                  A
  You're on your own, kid
G                  A
  Yeah, you can face this
G                  A
  You're on your own, kid
                      D
  You always have been
