Came out Swinging


Intro: C

             C
Moved all my shit into my parent's basement
    G
And out of our old apartment
  Am                          F
I know things changed but I'm not sure when
  C
I guess you'd call this regression
         G
I left a real job and a girlfriend
     Am                     F
I convinced myself that I'm brave enough for all of this
      Am           F             C
Well, I spent this whole year in airports
        G
And the floor feels like home
Am F C                 G
Ohhhhh, at least we're never alone
Am       F            C                  G
  I lost track of the time zones and I'd call but you know
Am F C G 
Ohhhhh
               Am
I'm running on empty
    C                   G                    Am
The late nights and the long drives start to get to me
         C         G
I'm just so tired

             Am        F             C                 G
I spent this year as a ghost and I'm not sure what I'm looking for
      Am         F              C               G
I'm a voice on a phone that you rarely answer anymore
  Am
I came in here alone
     F
Came in here alone
                 C                          G
But that doesn't scare me like it did seven months ago
             Am        F             C              G
I spent this year as a ghost and I'm not sure where home is anymore

C  G  Am  F

          C
Been on a steady fast food diet
     G                       Am
Like we're this generation's Morgan Spurlock
       F
But we don't admit defeat
   C                         G
My body feels rejected and I can't say that I blame it
   Am
My heart keeps saying stay young
   F
My lower back seems to disagree
  Am         F            C             G
I unrolled a cheap cotton blanket on an old dirty couch
Am F C             G             Am
Ohhhhh, I felt the year start to wind down
        F         C   
I can't stand any dead space
      G
Empty beds bum me out
Am F C G
Ohhhh

             Am        F             C                 G
I spent this year as a ghost and I'm not sure what I'm looking for
      Am         F              C               G
I'm a voice on a phone that you rarely answer anymore
  Am

     F
Came in here alone
                 C                          G
But that doesn't scare me like it did seven months ago
             Am        F             C              G

  C                        F
I came out swinging from a South Philly basement
         Am                         G
Caked in stale beer and sweat under half-lit fluorescents
  C                        F
I spent the winter writing songs about getting better
    Am                       G
And if I'm being honest, I'm getting there
