Intro
D D/F# G (x6)
[Verse 1]
D D
I always feel a little bit dyslexic
D D
When I read a note pass through your hands
D D
And I'm kind of winging it through each sentence
D D
Hoping that I'll make you understand
D
That it's bigging me to call
D D D
After you shut me down last night
D D
Yeah, you're lucky we even talk
D D
After last night
[Pre-Chorus 1]
D
I was sitting way too close to the TV
D D/F# G
Hoping that America will pull me in
D D
And I don't think that I'm making you incredibly happy
D D/F# G
For once I just wish the world would let me win
[Chorus]
D D
'Cause we're all trying to grow up safely
D D
Even though we act like we just don't care
D D
And there's nothing stopping us all from dying
D D
Can we at least try and look like we're playing fair?
D D
And you're a little overweight for TV
D D
But I think your heart's in the right place
D D
And I don't want to be your only witness
D D
When the world dies and your body breaks
[Post-Chorus]
D D D
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, first rule of lovesick
D D D
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, don't cry in public
[Verse 2]
D D
I always calling our family doctor
D D
'Cause I'm sure I've only got two days to live
D D
If I knew you would drop everything and come over
D D
Those two days with you I'd like to live
[Pre-Chorus 2]
D D
Even know I'm still a little overweight for TV
D D/F# G
I'm pretty sure America will pull me in
D D
I'm a sucker for the lights and the pretty pictures
D D/F# G
One day the world will let me win
[Instrumental]
