[D] [Bm]
[A] [D]
[Bm]
[A] [D]
I started up the engine, [G] headed [D] for the place [Bm] we met
[A] I [D]
prayed to Sister Juliet, [G] smoked [D] three packs of [Bm] cigarettes
[A]
[D]
[G] Still trying to figure out [D] forgiveness,
[G] keep track of all of [A] my sins
[Bm] Just tell me you [A] don't love me and [D] I promise I [G] won't
[D]
Darken [G] your [D] doorstep again,
[Bm]
[A] [D]
[Bm]
[A] [D]
this sure ain't how I thought that it would [G] feel
[D] To finally [Bm] have made it, [A]
[D]
I've arrived alive in Danbury
[G] Damn [D] it's overrated, [Bm] [A]
[D] they [G] put us back on [D] the blacklist
[G] Well we never learned why we [A] needed to stay
We [Bm] took a ride [A] trying to hide [D] from the God [G] of early [D]
marriages [G] and [D] Angie Ray
Last
[Bm]
night [A] New York City [G] was heaven, [D] now I'm [A] feeling low
[Bm]
How many [A] stones did [G] we roll, [D] hoping hell [G] would explode
We read all [D] the right books, [G]
we sang songs we [A]
misunderstood
With [B]
or [A] without [D] any reason, [G] we did [D]
rebellion [Gm] what justice [D] we could
[Bm]
[A] [D]
[Bm]
[A] [D]
So I'm trying not to think about [G] home
[D] and all that I [Bm] miss
[A] I [D]
swallowed my pride [G] and I cried cause [D] home doesn't [Bm] exist
You [A]
[D]
[G] said it's [D] now or never, well [G] I never stopped feeling [A] that way
We [Bm] get [A] turned around, [D] our spirits [G] break down, [D] we just lie [G] and say we're [D] okay
[Bm] And the older [A] I get, [G] the more truth [D] it gets harder [A] to find
[Bm] And famous [A] false prophets [G] get by [D] off robbing [G] good men blind
Maybe I don't have [D] it in me, [G] maybe it doesn't have me [A] in it
[B]
And if [A] I don't fly [D] that's fine, [G] just let [D] me find [G] the place where [D] I fit
[Bm]
[A] [D]
