E G#m
Cigarette smoke dances back in the window
A C#m B
And I can see the haze on the dome light
E G#m
I'm conjuring ghosts on a forty-hour ride home
A C#m B
And they keep asking me what I m doing with my life
A B C#m
While my cousins go to bed with their wives
A B F#m
I'm feeling like I've fallen behind

E
Well the highway won
G#m
I'm listening to traffic reports
A C#m B
One on one coming quietly undone
E G#m
I was born to run away from anything good
A
An escape artist s son
C#m B
With sun-drenched pavement in my blood
A B C#m
The first thing that I do when I walk in
A B F#m
Is plan a way out for when shit gets bad

C#m B A E C#m
And I've been looking for tears in the screen door
B A
tears in the screen door
C#m B A E C#m
I've been waiting for another disaster
B A
another disaster

E - G#m - A - C#m - B

E G#m
I'm terrified like a kid in the sixties
A C#m B
Staring at the sky waiting for the bomb to fall
E G#m
It s all a lie what they say about stability
A
It scares me sometimes
C#m B F#m
The emptiness I see in my eyes

G#m A B
All the kid's names I've ever liked are tied to tragedy
F#m G#m A B
And I don't want my children growing up to be anything like me

C#m B A E C#m
And I've been looking for tears in the screen door
B A
tears in the screen door
C#m B A E C#m
I've been waiting for another disaster
B A
another disaster
C#m A B
But I was kind of hoping you'd stay
C#m A E
I was kind of hoping you'd stay

A - E - B

C#m
I keep a flashlight
A E B
And a small knife in the corner of my bed stand
C#m A
I keep a flashlight and the train times
E
But you wouldn't understand
B
How could you understand

C#m A
Jesus Christ I'm twentysix
E B
All the people I graduated with
C#m A
All have kids all have wives
E B
All have people who care if they come home at night
C#m B
Jesus Christ did I fuck up

C#m B A E C#m
And I've been looking for tears in the screen door
B A
tears in the screen door
C#m B A E C#m
I've been waiting for another disaster
B A
another disaster
C#m A B
But I was kind of hoping you'd stay
C#m A B
I was kind of hoping you'd stay
C#m B E
I was kind of hoping you'd stay
