Intro
D Bm G (x4)
[Verse]
D
My heart feels young
G A D
My body feels old
F#m G
My mind just feels like it's trying to please them both
D G A
Left my back on the kitchen floor where we laid
D
And my feet have been running from
F#m G
The places I have been
[Pre-Chorus]
Em A
Pessimism, you're on my side, my old friend
Em G A
You make the bad come as no shock once again
[Chorus]
Bm G D
Sometimes "why?" is a question
A Bm F#m
That I wish I
G D G
never even learned
Bm A
They say to go with my gut
Em G
But there's a hole that I can't keep shut
Bm
Shut
A
Shut
D
I can't keep shut
[Verse]
D
I wear fucked on my sleeve
G A D
I hate what I can't change
F#m G
There's a difference between running from something
A
And searching for anything
[Pre-Chorus]
Em Bm A
Pessimism, you're on my side, my old friend
Em Bm A
You make the bad come as no shock once again
Bm A G D
And the good as holy as a downpour
Em G
After all our rain dances left us
A
Begging the gods for more
[Chorus]
Bm G D
Sometimes "why?" is a question
A Bm F#m
That I wish I
G D G
never even learned
Bm A
They say to go with my gut
Em G
But there's a hole that I can't keep shut
Bm
Shut
A
Shut
D
I can't keep shut
[Bridge]
D Bm G
It would kill me to tell you
D Bm G
That this country got the best of my morals
Em G
It would kill me to tell you
Em
Out of fifty states
G A
I only feel right in one
[Chorus]
Bm G D
Sometimes "why?" is a question
A Bm F#m
That I wish I
G D G
never even learned
Bm A
They say to go with my gut
Em G
But there's a hole that I can't keep shut
Bm
Shut
A
Shut
D Bm G D Bm D
I can't keep shut
