Chords with lyrics

DbDb AbAb x6

DbDb
I shake
AbAb
my head
DbDb
at how
AbAb               DbDb
perfect some song will sound in my car,
AbAb               DbDb     AbAb
driving toward the country for the month.

DbDb
I am
AbAb
still on
DbDb
the make,
   AbAb                 DbDb
and this place is full of friends that I've known,
   AbAb               DbDb     AbAb
they saw me too and laughed a warm laugh again.

F minorFm AbAb
Lay on
   DbDb        AbAb
the warm grass of my lawn
   F minorFm  AbAb
and shake hands,
   DbDb       AbAb
"I've met you once before".
F minorFm  AbAb    DbDb      AbAb
Call to the neighbors down below,
      F minorFm AbAb DbDb       AbAb
tell them "Wake up! Ma and Pa are gone!"

DbDb AbAb x2

DbDb
Don't waste
AbAb
a breath.
DbDb
How could
AbAb                DbDb
you spent your life on something so cold?
    AbAb                 DbDb    AbAb
it's flickered out you're lost and you're scared now.

  DbDb
And I need
AbAb
this life,
DbDb
these friends,
AbAb             DbDb
my home. I'm on the curb smiling
AbAb                   DbDb
remember this 'cause things are never that bad.

Eb MajorEb DbDb F minorFm x2

Eb MajorEb  DbDb  F minorFm
You feel right.
Eb MajorEb   DbDb   F minorFm
I was probably scared.
   Eb MajorEb DbDb  F minorFm
While I was gone,
Eb MajorEb     DbDb    F minorFm
you were sleeping upstairs.
  Eb MajorEb DbDb  F minorFm
When I first heard
Eb MajorEb  DbDb      F minorFm
you barely made a sound.
  Eb MajorEb DbDb  F minorFm
And I fell first
Eb MajorEb  DbDb     F minorFm
isn't it perfect how?
  DbDb  Eb MajorEb  AbAb
it all comes down
DbDb  Eb MajorEb     AbAb
to a moment like this
   DbDb  Eb MajorEb  AbAb
when I'm leaving for
 DbDb    Eb MajorEb     AbAb
something bigger than us.
DbDb Eb MajorEb  F minorFm
Remember that.
DbDb Eb MajorEb  F minorFm
Remember that?
  DbDb    Eb MajorEb      AbAb
I called my mom and she said
    DbDb  Eb MajorEb     AbAb
she's never been so impressed.
