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