Intro
D F#m G D (x3)
Bm A
[Verse 1]
D F#m G
We were born night owls
D G
The warm air makes our eyes glow
D Bm
Summer makes our heads spin
D F#m
And the smell of hot pavement
G
Making rain rise like spirits
D Bm
Holy water still freezes come winter
Bm G
We drink from the sprinklers
A Bm
The neighborhood left on
G D
And use them as metronomes
A Bm
For our walk home
A D
For our walk home
[Chorus]
D Bm
Just do what you can to do what you love
D Bm D
And be mindful when someone out there gives a shit
D Bm
I don't know where I'm going
E F#m G
But it's where I want to be
G D
It's where I want to be
[Instrumental]
D F#m G (x2)
[Verse 2]
D F#m G
Passing by this school yard
D G
There's a cavity you can't see
D Bm
Down at least two feet deep
D F#m G
If it was our past inside of that box
D Bm
I wouldn't just bury it beneath
Bm G
I'd keep it locked
A Bm G D
My Nativity scene would be the people sharing this floor
A Bm G
Instead of a cave let's head through the downstairs door
D A Bm G
Half-renovated basements make great men
A D
They make great men
[Chorus]
D Bm
Just do what you can to do what you love
D Bm D
And be mindful when someone out there gives a shit
D Bm
I don't know where I'm going
E F#m G
But it's where I want to be
G D F#m G
It's where I want to be
[Bridge]
Bm A D
This place holds my attention like a presidential speech
E
But it makes my stomach turn like the college campus
G F#m G D
The first line was written on
[Chorus]
D Bm
Just do what you can to do what you love
D Bm D
And be mindful when someone out there gives a shit
D Bm
I don't know where I'm going
E F#m G
But it's where I want to be
G D F#m G
It's where I want to be
