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

But there's a hole that I can't keep shut
Am
Shut
G
Shut
C
I can't keep shut
[Bridge]
C Am F
It would kill me to tell you
C Am F
That this country got the best of my morals
Dm F
It would kill me to tell you
Dm
Out of fifty states
F G
I only feel right in one
[Chorus]
Am F C
Sometimes "why?" is a question
