Intro:
G  Cmaj7  G  Cmaj7


Verse 1:
   G
Midnight, you could see me dangling
  Cmaj7                                  G
Glow like a cherry falling, now it's a downpour
                                          Cmaj7
You could see me racing the rain to the ground floor
            Am                         G
You're the only thing I'll wait around for
                                           Cmaj7
Maybe when you get off of work, you should meet me
                                  G
We could go barreling down the main street
                                                Cmaj7
You could try watching while I run through the high-beams

Instrumental:
G  Cmaj7  G  Cmaj7


Bridge:
             Em            G              Cmaj7
'Cause if I didn't have a mean bone in my body
     Em              G               Cmaj7
I'd find some other way to cause you pain
Em              G               Cmaj7
I won't bother telling you I'm sorry
    Em                 G         Cmaj7  C
For something that I'm gonna do again


Verse 2:
                        G
When I could spend the weekend out on a bender
          Cmaj7
Do I get callous or do I stay tender?
                G
Which of these is worse and which is better?
         Cmaj7
Dying to myself, virtually a massacre
   Em           G           Cmaj7
A character of somebody's invention
   Em         G             Cmaj7
A martyr in another passion play
   Em                G           Cmaj7
I guess I don't mind losing my conviction
        Em            G        Cmaj7
If it's all relative fiction anyway


Verse 3:
                       G                            Cmaj7
'Cause I don't need a savior, I need you to take me home
                   G                            Cmaj7
I don't need your help, I need you to leave me alone
                   G
I'm out where the drunks at the bar talk over the band
  Cmaj7
I try to express, I can't understand
   G
I beat at the keys, I bloody my hands
       Cmaj7
'Til you hear me
     Em               G
I've got no business praying
     Cmaj7
I'm finished being good
            Em         G              Cmaj7
Now I can finally be okay and not the way I thought I should
   G  Cmaj7  G  Cmaj7
Mm-mm
