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