Verse
Am Dm
Someone tipped the scales and watched the waters flood
Am Dm
They blew out all the windows, caked the walls with mud
E Am Dm
And everybody knows when it hits in the south
Am E Dm
That is a land that we will learn to live without
Am E Am
That is a house that we have learned to live without.
[Verse 2]
Am Dm
When ruins come in pieces with no pictures to recall
Am Dm
When you can't find a light to break or bright the shadows on the wall
E Am Dm
Every time that we declare this is it, I'm giving up
Am E Dm
There comes a push, there comes a push, there comes a push
Am E Am
And we don't sit down, what we do is get back up.
[Bridge]
A? E Am
It was an idea that we had and a bad idea at that
Dm E
I wanna be loved by you, I sure do...
[Chorus]
Am
Let's learn to be alone together
Dm E
Let's cry our fucking eyes out 'cause we know no one will care for us
Am
Let's go home alone together
Dm E
Let's fuck and let's expect it when we don't feel any better.
[Verse 3]
Am Dm
There goes the best damn summer that we ever spent
Am Dm
Drinking on the porch, rolling our own cigarettes
E Am Dm
Jumping up and down in our panties on the bed, screaming,
Am E Dm
That was the best summer that we will ever have
Am E Am
And we believed it, we believed it, we believed it.
[Verse 4]
Am Dm
So won't you take me to the kitchen of your ex-wife's house?
Am Dm
Bore me with details of all the papers you've put out
E Dm
And I can't tell when you're gonna figure out
Am E Dm
That any line you use tonight will work
Am E Am
Because we're both as fucking broken as we look.
[Chorus]
Am
Let's learn to be alone together
Dm E
Let's cry our fucking eyes out 'cause we know no one will care for us
Am
Let's go home alone together
Dm E
Let's fuck and let's expect it when we don't feel any better.
Am
Let's go home alone...
Am
Let's go home alone...
