Biography:
Straylight Run was the project of ex-Taking Back Sunday members John Nolan and Shaun Cooper. The band formed in May 2003 shortly after John and Shaun left Taking Back Sunday due to personal differences with lead singer Adam Lazzara. John and Shaun had been writing songs while still in the old band that they felt didn't fit in with Taking Back Sunday's style, and the freedom of starting a new band gave them a chance to experiment with this new sound.

INTRO:
------
Em Bm Csus2 G (x2)
VERSE 1:
--------
Em D/F# G*
And all the awkward ways
Em D/F# G*
that you recoil when I get close
Em D/F# G*
And oh, the awful grin
Em D/F# G*
that greets me when I'm all alone
VERSE 2:
--------
Em D/F# G*
So down on hands and knees,
Em D/F# G*
choking, gasping, dripping spit
Em D/F# G*
I just can't make good
Em D/F# G*
on any of these promises
CHORUS:
-------
Em Bm
Then he asked me, "what does that mean?"
Csus2 G
What's another word for desperate?
Em Bm
Repetition makes an impression
Csus2 G
What's another word for desperate?
Em D/F# G* Em D/F# G*
I won't be around here for too very long
VERSE 3:
--------
Em D/F# G*
So tip the bottle back,
Em D/F# G*
bubble foam, and watch it break
Em D/F# G*
We can all be sure
Em D/F# G*
something awful's coming this way
VERSE 4:
--------
Em D/F# G*
So take this medicine
Em D/F# G*
and measure doses, take your time
Em D/F# G*
'cause they'll tear into you
Em D/F# G*
They will, they will, they will, they will
REPEAT CHORUS (With "I won't be..." line twice)
INTERLUDE:
----------
Em D/F# G* (x4)
Em D/F# G*
And they'll tear into you
Em D/F# G*
They will, they will, they will, they will
OUTRO:
------
Em D/F# G* (x2)
Em D/F#
Take it apart and let it all go
G*
Holdin' it back it's all just so...
Em D/F#
Why did I care? How did it go?
G*
Wait for a while and I guess that
Em D/F# G* Em D/F# G*
I won't be around here for too very long (x2)
