Baltimore




Tomorrow, I am leaving for Baltimore

You think I act like Harry Potter, like you're Voldemort

I don't care what you said, you didn't mean it like I did

Don't even start

With me
                                 G             C
Turn up the heat, turn up the heat
D                  C
Please get out the kitchen
            G     C       D        C                G        C
You're like vegan cheese: try as I might, you never melt for me
   D            C                  G C D C x2
It wasn't quite as funny at the time.
        G   C                 D           C
Now in ten minutes, I will be ten minutes away
         G          C                     D                   C
Part of me thinks I should go back to the folk-punk house and stay
     G                C
Everybody was so nice there
           D             C                     G       C   D   C
There were lots of heavy things that stayed in place
      G                  C
And I wish that this was more like that
    D                  C              G
But when you feel held back, you slip away
                C             D              C
And really, I get that, 'cause sometimes I also feel that way
        G               C      
But I'm older now and I know this now
       D                         C                 G
It's a game, it's a game, it's a game, and I can't play
C      D C G C D C
Hey hey

(Palm mute)
         G                           B
'Cause I shoot for the impossible knowing that it won't come
        C                                  D
And you think I would know better now that I am twenty-one
          G             
I've been bored, I've been so bored
             B                                  C          D
And I've been numb and dumb and I'm still pretty young.



             G              C              D              C
Besides, I'm really getting so adept at preventing my own happiness
   G               C               D                 C
Complacency breeds latency in that space it sits deep in my chest
        G                  C                     D                  C
And the thing that beats beneath your breast has been at rest but I try my best
   G                   C                   D                     C             
To see how close I can get to it, 'cause I get productive when I get upset
G C D C x2
Hey
           G      C                   D        C
So now, in ten minutes, I will be ten minutes away
        G                  C                    D              C
Part of me thinks I should leave right now, but I sit back and stay
          G                   C
I've been bored, I've been so bored
              D             C             G   C   D   C       (Countinue Chords)   
And I've been looking for a little bit of heartache

Where it won't bother me bother me in

Tomorrow, I am leaving for Baltimore

Where it won't bother me, bother me, not in

You think I act like Harry Potter, but you're Voldemort
