Verse:

E5
This cigar burns a hole straight through my jeans, 
                    C5
and through your heart.
                                G5
As i watch the ashes form another scar.
                                        D5                  E5
That i will never show but somehow everybody seems to know my demons.
                                 C5
In all my efforts I've committed treason.
                                           A5
Chasing dreams that are changing like the seasons.
                                      C5        B5      D5
They make me feel so small but I'm so proud to tell them all that



Chorus:
     E5   C5
I'm a man now.
G5            D5
I can drive a car.
         E5   C5
And I'm a dropout.
    G5        D5
I'm nobody so far.
            E5    C5    G5                 D5
But I don't mess with cigarettes or alcohol.
               E5        C5
Cause I'm the best there is.
            G5             D5              E5
And they tell me all the winners smoke cigars.

Verse:
      E5                                              C5
This guitar is pouring melodies that burn inside my heart.
                                     G5
As the sound is broken up by passing cars.
                              
They don't know that I'm above.
             D5                        E5
Or that I'm swimming in the middle of an ocean.
                               C5
I'm riding on a wave or pure emotion.
                               A5
I'm drinking up this sea like it's a potion.
C5                
Maybe i can mend new wings.
          B5          D5
I'll either float or start to sink.



Chorus:
     E5   C5
I'm a man now.
G5            D5
I can drive a car.
         E5   C5
And I'm a dropout.
    G5        D5
I'm nobody so far.
            E5    C5    G5                 D5
But I don't mess with cigarettes and alcohol.
               E5        C5
Cause I'm the best there is.
            G5             D5              
And they tell me all the winners play guitar.

And I know I've never been the kind to let them get inside my mind.
          G5                 D5
You just got to see that I need them on my side.
     A5                                                C5
I promise not to breathe it in, or ever strum a chord again.
           G5                                      D5
Cause it burns my lungs and hurts my tongue to know that



Verse:

            G5             D5              E5
And they tell me all the winners smoke cigars.
