Intro:
   B Abm E Abm7 E
   B Abm E Abm7 E

Verse 1:
B                                     Abm                  E             B
We drank and I convinced you that the wildfire smog is the northern lights
B                                   Abm           E
But lately I've been looking at you harder, just taking you in
B                                    Abm                      E        B
The callous on your fingers from the handbreak grips on your junkyard bike
B                          Abm            E
Your boots all filled with water, I mean, soaking wet

Pre-chorus:
Ebm                           E
But you could punch me in the gut
                          B                 Dbm            E
And it wouldn't hurt like watching you grow smaller on the backroad
Dbm                 E
And I never ask for much,
                      B                 Dbm      E
But I hope that Logan crumbles and gets hit by a tornado

Chorus:
E  (nc)
Oh I
Abm (nc)
Can't keep
B    (nc)   Gb
On starting over
E   (nc)      Abm (nc)    B
Sleeping in a bed half empty
 (nc)      Gb
Daydreaming
E
All love
Abm
Must leave
B                  Gb
Oh, but search for it,
E
I will
       Abm
Honey, tell me
B               Gb      E      Abm  B
Are you good at staying still?
B                       Gb                                        E
Are you good at staying still? Or well, will you up and leave or will you be there in the
morning

Instrumental: B Abm E Abm7 E

Verse 2:
  B                Abm          E    B
I always hated the sunlight, at 3 pm
B                           Abm               E              B
Where it's too soon to quit thinking, but too late to change anything
    B                        Abm                 E           B
I'm racking my brain for the one line that would change your mind
B                         Abm                 E            Ebm
Showing you plane crashes online, it couldn't hurt to try

Pre-chorus:
Ebm                       E
But the Charles meets the sun
                           B
And the Harvard track team runs,
        Dbm             E
Past my truck, stuck on Storrow
Dbm                 E
And I never ask for much,
                      B                 Dbm      E
but I hope that Logan crumbles and gets hit by a tornado

Chorus:
 E  (nc)
'Cause I
Abm (nc)
Can't keep
B    (nc)     Gb
On starting over
E   (nc)      Abm (nc)   B
Sleeping in a bed half empty
 (nc)      Gb
Daydreamin'
E
All love
Abm
Must leave
B                 Gb    E
Oh, but search for it I will
    Abm     B
Honey, tell me
                Gb      E
Are you good at staying still
    Abm      B
Honey, tell me
                Gb      E      Abm B
Are you good at staying still
                Gb      E      Abm B
Are you good at staying still

Bridge:
Abm                       B
Put in love, put in hours, put in ceremony
E
As it was, how you were
E
What was there before me
Abm                  B
Nevermind, nevermind, I'll forget about it
E
I'll be good, I'll be fine, I can laugh about it

Chorus:
E  (nc)
I try
Abm (nc)
To keep
B    (nc)   Gb
On starting over (Oh)
E   (nc)      Abm (nc)    B
Sleeping in a bed half empty
 (nc)      Gb
Daydreaming
E
All love
Abm
Must leave
B                  Gb
Oh, but search for it,
E
I will
       Abm
Honey, tell me
B               Gb      E      Abm  B
Are you good at staying still?
B               Gb      E      Abm B
Are you good at staying still
B                       Gb    (nc)
Are you good at staying still or well, will you up and leave,
    E
Or will you be there in the morning
