   A5                     E5

A5                                                       E5
Leaky holes and fire escapes will set the evening for tone
A5                                                        E5
You and your holy halo started burning eventually just froze
A5                                                        E5
Sewn into the carpet just trying to thaw out whatever I know
A5                                                    E5
The thermostat it won't go higher not that you or I know

A5     C#5        E5
  I was drinking heavily
A5     C#5           E5      F#5
  I burst into your bedroom belligerently
A5                    E5           A5                      E5          F#5
  Asked her if she's done a thing like stepping out and making a scene
    A5                E5           A5                        E5            A5
  So foolishly I was apathetic so I blamed your family and Never mended it

  Shitty brakes and balding tires we're out around on the road
  A5                                                    E5
  You and my little sister, flashy frequent scariest snow
     A5 
  And we return just fine
                                      E5
  I started to crack your analytical code
          A5                          E5
  By the time you're convinced, I know

A5 E5 x3
A5                    E5
  When I was drinking heavily
A5                   E5         F#5
  I burst into your bedroom confusingly
A5                  E5               
  Yelled about a bunch of things 
A5                          E5            F#5           A5
  that if you looked you'd never see for our eternities
 E5                               A5
  And I blamed you for not being
E5                  A5 G#5 F#5 E5                    A5
  someone you could not be someone you'll never be

( A5 A5 C#5 C#5 )x4                       E5
  Now I see everything and everyone you see
  A5                                                  E5
  Killing time alone inside a stripped and nakedest home
  A5                                                           E5
  Couldn't catch my brain up with the sights and fear that I saw
  A5                                                E5
  Fell into the doorway hoping you had left the guitars
  A5                                                 E5
  It's way too late for calling anyways I guess I'll doze off  x5

A5                    E5
  I've been drinking carefully
A5                  E5           F#5
  I creep into our bedroom and watch you sleep
A5                E5                                       
  My mind it wanders onto things 
A5                      E5        F#5                      A5
  that if I try I can't explain as if there's something worse
E5                        A5     E5                         A5      E5
  As if there's something worse, to have weaned away your worth, when I was 
     A5       E5                             A5
  so absurd      Well is there something worse? 

A E rest of song till the end
