Capo 5
E
It's the heat of the summer,
C
keeps dragging you back in,
E C
the rest of us have all found homes.
E C
It's the same streets that are causing you to sin,
E C
the rest of us have up and gone.
E C
And you're sulking around
E C
the same familiar town,
E C
the sweat and the bones that you're cracking,
E
begging you to stay,
C
you know it's not that way.
G G/F
So let's start a band,
E
I'll bring the time,
you bring the hands.
G G/F E
I'll meet you tomorrow in another state.
G G/F
But you're tied to the ground
E
and your teeth make this sound
G G/F E
of I'm sorry but I have to stay.
E
Doesn't make you a liar,
C
just makes you wrong.
E
It doesn't make you a liar,
C
it just makes you wrong.
E C
And you're choking on the same damn song,
E
yeah you're choking on
C
the same damn song.
G G/F E
I can't believe that the same set of keys
G G/F E
doesn't bring you to your knees.
G G/F E
Me at your back with the knife,
begging please,
G G/F
you don't have to stay here,
E
I beg you to leave.
