Intro
A# A#sus4 A# F D# (repeat twice)
[Verse]
A# A#sus4 A#
I miss my friends, I miss my house
F D#
but it's way too late to turn back now.
A# A#sus4 A#
I left in hopes to leave my name in,
F D#
places where I've never been.
Cm D# F
And I'm trying so hard,
Cm D# F G#
but you're denying my heart.
[Instrumental] (2x)
A# A#sus4 A# F D#
[Verse]
A# A#sus4 A#
Played a show in Michigan,
F D#
where my phone fell off and hit the rim,
A# A#sus4 A#
cracked my screen, the Apple Store,
F D#
told me "$120, wallet encore!"
A# A#sus4 A#
There was a motel down the street,
F D#
but I scrapped up enough just to eat,
A# A#sus4 A#
so I slept in my car,
F D#
wishing on a shooting star.
[Chorus]
A#
It's a long drive back home,
G# D#/G
but I can make it on my own.
A#
Not a mile on my car,
G# D#/G
more powerful than my desires
A#
Come down, come down, your balcony,
G# D#/G
is way too high for me to see.
A#
Hope you have fun up there,
G# D#/G G# A#
pretending anyone else cares.
D#/G G# A# (x2)
[Verse]
A# A#sus4 A#
And your boyfriend's got some nerve,
F D#
thinking my intention's on reverse.
A# A#sus4 A#
I've been known as a sweet-talker,
F D#
but never as a homewrecker.
A# A#sus4 A#
And sure, there once was a time,
F D#
we had Skype-sleepovers every night.
A# A#sus4 A#
But that's all over now,
F D#
I was a lucky 7, strike 8, she's out!
[Chorus]
A#
It's a long drive back home,
G# D#/G
but I can make it on my own.
A#
Not a mile on my car,
G# D#/G
more powerful than my desires
A#
Come down, come down, your balcony,
G# D#/G
is way too high for me to see.
A#
Hope you have fun up there,
G# D#/G G# A#
pretending anyone else cares.
[Chorus]
A#
It's a long drive back home,
G# D#/G
but I can make it on my own.
A#
Not a mile on my car,
G# D#/G
more powerful than my desires
A#
Come down, come down, your balcony,
G# D#/G
is way too high for me to see.
A#
Hope you have fun up there,
G# D#/G G# A#
pretending anyone else cares.
A# F
It's alright, we all changed,
G# D#
nothing can stay the same.
A# F
You left me, left me lost,
G# D#
I'm betrayed, and double crossed.
A# F G# D#
Every time I turn around, you're chasing life into the ground. You,
A# F G# D#
hide your soul, make it blind to all the elements outside. And,
A# F G# D#
instead of embracing your gifts, you make anti-intimate.
A# F G# D#
Smile and laugh with your friends, while deep inside you mourn again.
[Chorus]
A#
It's a long drive back home,
G# D#/G
but I can make it on my own.
A#
Not a mile on my car,
G# D#/G
more powerful than my desires
A#
Come down, come down, your balcony,
G# D#/G
is way too high for me to see.
A#
Hope you have fun up there,
G# D#/G G# A#
pretending anyone else cares.
[Outro]
