   A                     E

A                                                       E
Leaky holes and fire escapes will set the evening for tone
A                                                        E
You and your holy halo started burning eventually just froze
A                                                        E
Sewn into the carpet just trying to thaw out whatever I know
A                                                    E
The thermostat it won't go higher not that you or I know

A     C#m        E
  I was drinking heavily
A     C#m           E      F#m
  I burst into your bedroom belligerently
A                    E           A                      E          F#m
  Asked her if she's done a thing like stepping out and making a scene
    A                E           A                        E            A
  So foolishly I was apathetic so I blamed your family and Never mended it

 A                                                             E
  Shitty brakes and balding tires we're out around on the road
  A                                                    E
  You and my little sister, flashy frequent scariest snow
     A
  And we return just fine
                                      E
  I started to crack your analytical code
          A                          E
  By the time you're convinced, I know

A E x3
A                    E
  When I was drinking heavily
A                   E         F#m
  I burst into your bedroom confusingly
A                  E
  Yelled about a bunch of things
A                          E            F#m           A
  that if you looked you'd never see for our eternities
 E                               A
  And I blamed you for not being
E                  A G#m F#m E                    A
  someone you could not be someone you'll never be

( A A C#m C#m )x4                       E
  Now I see everything and everyone you see
  A                                                  E
  Killing time alone inside a stripped and nakedest home
  A                                                           E
  Couldn't catch my brain up with the sights and fear that I saw
  A                                                E
  Fell into the doorway hoping you had left the guitars
  A                                                 E
  It's way too late for calling anyways I guess I'll doze off  x5

A                    E
  I've been drinking carefully
A                  E           F#m
  I creep into our bedroom and watch you sleep
A                E
  My mind it wanders onto things
A                      E        F#m                      A
  that if I try I can't explain as if there's something worse
E                        A     E                         A      E
  As if there's something worse, to have weaned away your worth, when I was
     A       E                             A
  so absurd      Well is there something worse?

A E rest of song till the end
