Verse 1:
Em
Save a song for
me to sing boy 
if I wanna play a
       C
song tonight oh oh
Em
Is there something
I could wail out
if I wanna wail
         C
by candlelight? oh oh
            Em
I'm feeling sick
            Bm
I'm feeling old
            Em  D
I'm feeling weak
             C
I feel that snow
           Em
Down in my knees
           Bm
Down in my soul
            Em  D
In place of guts
           C
I've got a hole
     D         Em
Like everybody else
          C
I've ever known


Chorus 1:
Em
Baby this ain't
D
home to me
   C
no matter what
     G
they say
    Em
The grass is too
     D
damn green here
        C
and the hearts
             G
are dull and grey
           G
So take me down
        Bm
to that city
          Em
where the girls
           C
just look okay
      C
It's about all
      D
I can take it
I've stood too
            G    D C D G D C D
long in one place


Verse 2:
Em
  Strap me to the station
wagon roof and drive
                C
me out into the hills
   Em
It may sound like I'm
screaming from the car
but I'm just screaming
     C
from the thrill I'm
    Em            Bm
so alive I'm so afraid
               Em
That I've been wasting
       D             C
what's left of these days
             Em
These days I feel with
       Bm             Em D
a cold heart It's easier
           C
to keep it hard Just
D
grab your shit and
Em             C
meet me in the yard

Bridge:
Em         C
  Lollipop dreams and
          G
candycane waves
                    D
Are gonna hurt like hell
                   Em
when they crumble away
                    C
Because a beautiful youth
                    G
hurts worst when it dies
           D
A rotten reminder of the
          C
days we decided we'd rather
                     Em
go big and then rot away
               D
We'd give into love
                 C
and wind up castaways
We said "fuck all the old
                     Em
boring shits we've become"
                  D
So we hoarded our dreams
                   C
and we burnt every one
    D             Em
And fuck me man I knew
             C
not what I'd done
D              Em
Fuck us man we knew
              C
not what we'd done
Em             D
Fuck us man we knew
              C
not what we'd done
D
Man we were just
            G  D/F#
having some fun


Chorus 3: Slower beat
Em
Baby this ain't
D
home to me
   C
no matter what
     G
they say
    Em
The grass is too
     D
damn green here
        C
and the hearts
             G
are dull and grey
   G
So take me down
        Bm
to that city
          Em
where the girls
           C
just look okay
      C
It's about all
      D--
I can take it
I've stood too
                 G D/F# Em D C(hold)
long in one place
