Capo 2

[Intro]
G

[Verse 1]
G
hopeless, he says that everything is hopeless
Em
and now we're old enough to notice it
C
says were bound for sure destruction
G
but our eyes have been closed to it

[Verse 2]
G
out of sight, left a letter and left town tonight
Em
said its better to lay down than fight
C
and as he went she starts carrying off every weapon in sight
Em C
and she tells him, I'm like a lipstick of dynamite
D
and I could blow you right down

[Pre-Chorus]
C G
and I've lost a lot trying to better your clock
Em D C
but whatever you've lost I've found

[Chorus]
Em D G
so don't stop me now
C Em D
I'm already past the point of trying to figure it out
G D C
and if what's coming out of your mouth
D
is just a taste of all the trouble broken figures you've found
G C
then you can't say what you've got on your mind
G C
oh, wash your hands of everything and write off the time
G D
she said they should call you mr. coward
Em D C
because you love ‘em before you leave ‘em behind

[Post-Chorus]
G C D G
when the bars close down, I know tomorrow you'll be harder to find

[Verse 3]
G Em
and I'm aching now, I mean I'm waking up and breaking out
C
I'm throwing off the chains that weigh me down
Em D
and erase the thought of fate on the frown
G Em
and I'm losing it by any definition new to me
C D C
I used to fumble and you move your lips to stone when you pull me down
G Em D C
this love is getting off the rough and were both getting knocked around

[Chorus]
Em D G
so don't stop me now
C Em D
I'm already past the point of trying to figure it out
G D C
and if what's coming out of your mouth
D
is just a taste of all the trouble broken figures you've found
G C
then you can't say what you've got on your mind
G C
oh, wash your hands of everything and write off the time
G D
she said they should call you mr. coward
Em D C
because you love ‘em before you leave ‘em behind

[Bridge]
G D G C

[Outro]
G
and it takes a lot to get her out the love seat (staring now when you said I'm breaking down)
D
and she's lost but she says she's had enough of me (you've shown that you're ready for it now)
Am
I'm blowing off ambitions that she tried to keep (hell you always have to let it out)
C
she's having thoughts of spending time in other scenes (so let it out, just let it out)
G
and like a boss she's rolling up her rubber sleeves
D
wash it off about as quickly as your lover bleeds
Am
knees crossed to have to live to watch another leave
C
reason tossed about through 50 thousand other means
G
so with all broken figures that you tried to be (you sat and you thought I would wait for rain)
D
no statistician that showed you what you wait to see (no, you're impressed that I was coming off strong)
Am
no songs that said we live in perfect harmony (I tried to tell you that I said it all wrong)
C
if you just loved enough of me, just loved enough (but I guess you know)
