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