Watching cigarettes [G] burn out
Till all the neon [Em] gets turned out
So I'll bop you, [Am] it hurts, [C] I'll
[D] That's when cigarettes [G] can burn out
[C] Just watching rivers [Em] run
[Bm] Down the side of my bottom
[Am] Almost like it's crying [G] my tears
[C] I've been world on a string
And [Bm] then I lost everything
[Am] That's how I wound [D] up here
Watching [G] cigarettes burn out
Till all the neon [Em] gets turned out
There's nothing left but [Am] empty glasses now
[C] It's all flashes now
[D] The smoking memory, [Bm] that ain't nothing [D] but ashes
[G] In the low lights
These dummy wrongs don't [Em] set me so right
So I'll bop you, [Am] it [C] hurts, I'll
[D] That's when cigarettes [G] can burn out
If you [C] put your hands on the flame
You got [Bm] no right to complain
[Am] Cause you know it's gonna leave [G] a mark
[D] [C] Then the glow comes to an end
Like [Bm] scattered embers in the wind
[Am] Leaves you looking for a brand new [D]
spark
Watching [G] cigarettes burn out
[Em]
[Am] [D]
And on with every [C] hit
I'm gonna [G]
quit
But who am [Am] I kidding?
I just can't put [G] you down
So I keep hanging [C#] around
Watching [G] cigarettes burn out
Till all the neon [Em] gets turned out
There's nothing left but [Am] empty glasses now
[C] It's all flashes now
[D] The smoking memory, [Bm] that ain't nothing but [D] ashes
[G] In the low lights
These dummy wrongs don't set [Em] me so right
So I'll bop you, [Am] it hurts, I'll
[C]
[G] That's when cigarettes can burn out
[Em]
So I'll bop you, [Am] it hurts, [C] I'll
[D] That's when cigarettes [G] can burn out
