[Intro]
F Em Dm C G (x4)
[Verse]
F Em Dm C G
Walk past the kids all skipping class, their nervous smiles and too loud laughs
F Em Dm C G
A cigarette gets passed around the boys
F Em Dm C G
Celebrity becomes implied with their whitened teeth, Cheshire cat smiles
F Em Dm C G
As all around me rushes to the noise
F Em Dm C G
Of a holiday I cannot comprehend rolls slowly as the tram tracks bend
F Em Dm C G
Around more choking hazard toys
[Bridge]
F C
And the ocean laps dyed green under the footpath where the shore once stood proud
F C
But nobody's got time for that now
[Chorus]
Am G C
So I ask for directions even though I know exactly where I am
Am G F
Just want someone to talk to
Am G C F
Someone to hold their hand against my hand
Am G
Say, "It's alright, I understand,"
C F
Say, "It's alright, I understand!"
[Instrumental Solo]
F Em Dm C G (x2)
[Verse]
F Em Dm C G
And I cannot judge and I cannot hide my coffee teeth and brand name smile
F Em Dm C G
As I'm suckered in by the blinking lights, happy hours, pointless fights
F Em Dm C G
And the taxes I can't comprehend, I don't know how much to tip
F Em Dm C G
Or where the grand experiment goes to get fucked when it gets dark
F Em Dm C G
And I'm magically made to cooperate and the streets round here don't feel the same
F Em Dm C G
As when I would have wanted to walk down every avenue arm in broken arm with you
[Bridge]
F C
But now my pre-sunrise respite makes me even
F C
less of the right guy
[Chorus]
Am G C
And I'm happy here or I'm comfortable there
Am G F
But I don't get to say that much
Am G C F
Thought it was another thing we gave up
Am G
Yeah, yeah I thought it was another thing we'd given up
[Bridge]
F G Am G
Like having friends, relationships and any chance of stay at home happiness
F G Am G
Remembering dollars and cents and knowing where the fuck I have slept
F G
But I'd give it all up for a shot at this
Am G
I wanna make everything, quit every bad
F G
habit that I'm in, Remember where I'm from and where I'm going
Am G
And find something in me to provide self-esteem
F G
Stop living day-to-day, night-to-night, dream-to-dream
Am G
I don't get anything from anything anymore
F G
I don't love anyone anymore
Am G
I don't love anyone anymore
F G
I don't love anyone anymore
[Chorus]
Am G C
So I ask for directions even though I know exactly where I am
Am G F
Just want someone to talk to
Am G C F
Someone to hold their hand against my hand
Am G
Say, "It's alright, I understand,"
C F
Say, "It's alright, I understand!"
