Verse 1: B I'm the tall glass of water you lost in your kitchen Gb I'm casually cruel like a senior prediction Ebm7 Bmaj7 Most likely to leave at the sign of a fork in the road B You looked just like your father as the news was delivered Gb Cut a hole in my heart that bled into my liver Ebm7 Bmaj7 I miss being alone when it didn't mean being alone Verse 2: B And if love was contagious, I might be immune to it Gb Pain's like cold water, your brain just gets used to it Ebm7 Bmaj7 I try to keep swimming and keep Dad's good word in my mouth B Now they're fighting like dogs in the town across the river Gb Over a brand new crosswalk that won't matter come winter Ebm7 B And sometimes folks just need something to be angry about Bmaj7 What you angry about? Chorus: Gb I ain't bitter 'bout much these days Bmaj7 Gb In some ways, I'm damn lucky to be here B Gb Where the miners stayed in the good old days Bmaj7 Gb Yes, real men used to sleep here Ebm7 Db By those roadside graves where my friends still lay in Bmaj7 Gb I walk by just to weep here Ebm7 Db They say killing time ain't a homicide Bmaj7 But a prayer for a leap year Verse 3: B I'm the roach in your drawer, I lived here long before you Gb Gb I'm the rumble of war, it gets hard to ignore you Ebm7 Well, love, sometimes folks just need something they can scream at Bmaj7 Scream at B I'm the hills in the distance, you see me, can't be me Gb You need me in half, Lord, I need you completely Ebm7 Bmaj7 Oh, sometimes folks just need something they can scream at Chorus: Gb I ain't bitter 'bout much these days Bmaj7 Gb In some ways, I'm damn lucky to be here B Gb Where the miners stayed in the good old days Bmaj7 Gb Yes, real men used to sleep here Ebm7 Db By those roadside graves where my friends still lay in Bmaj7 Gb I walk by just to weep here Ebm7 Db They say killing time ain't a homicide Bmaj7 But a prayer for a leap year Ebm7 Db They say killing time ain't a homicide Bmaj7 But a prayer for a leap year Outro: Gb B I'm on running ground, I'm in Bordertown Ebm7 Bmaj7 I'm a college kid with my windows down Bmaj7 Db I'm an astronaut, you're the moon Ebm7 Bmaj7 I stare at you, I sing to you Gb B I'm on running ground, I'm in Bordertown Ebm7 Db I'm a college kid with my windows down Bmaj7 Db I'm an astronaut, you're the moon Ebm7 Bmaj7 I sing to you, I scream to you Ebm7 Bmaj7 I'll stare at you, I'll sting at you This arrangement is its contributor’s own interpretation, shared for private study, education and non-commercial use.
