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