C                        F
I set all my regrets on fire
          G                        Am
Cause I know I'll never take the time
C                           F                        
To unpack my missteps and call all of our friends
     G                          Am
I figure they would take your side
                              
(Pre Chorus)
            F                  G
I make the bed, just not that well 
                 F      
Your name comes up a lot
         F    
When I talk to my mom
         G
Oh, I think she can tell

(CHORUS)
        C
I was out on the town
      Am                        (F - F - Fx8 quick strums)  
So I came to your window last night
          C                         
I tried not to throw stones
        Am             (F - F - Fx8 quick strums) 
But I wanted to come inside
           C                       Am                  (F - F - Fx8quick strums)
Now I'm causing a scene, thinking you need a reason to smile
   Am    G           F
Oh no, what have I done?
          F        G       Am
There's no one to keep me warm


So maybe I should put up a fight
I'll call them back and borrow a box knife
So I can learn to live with all the stupid s*** I've been doing since '99

And I know I could be more clever
And I know I could be more strong
But I'm waiting for the day you come back and say
"Hey, maybe I should change my mind"

I drink a lot
I'm not sure if that's new
But these days when I wake up from a night I forgot
I just wish that it never came true

I was out on the town
So I came to your window last night
I tried not to throw stones
But I wanted to come inside
Now I'm causing a scene, thinking you need a reason to smile
Oh no, what have I done?
There's no one to keep me warm

And I know I could be more clever
And I know I could be more strong
And I know I could be more clever
And I know I could be more clever

I knew there would come a day when all was said and done
(And I know I could be more clever)
Everything I was is everything but gone
(And I know I could be more strong)
All my big mistakes are bouncing off your wall
(And I know I could be more clever)
The bottles never break, the sorrow never comes
(And I know I could be more clever)
So come on let me in, I will be the sun
(And I know I could be more clever)
I will wake you up, I am who I was
(And I know I could be more strong)
Just open up your heart, open up your heart, open up your heart
(And I know I could be more clever
And I know I could be more)

I was out on the town
So I came to your window last night
I tried not to throw stones
But I wanted to come inside
Now I'm causing a scene, but you need a reason to smile
Oh no, what have I done?
There's no one to keep me warm
