Chords with lyrics

• Difficulty: Intermediate

Key: E MajorE

Verse 1:
E MajorE         A augmentedA
Me and my friends
            E MajorE
We don't encourage discipline
           A augmentedA
Or really much of anything
E MajorE               A augmentedA
We do our drugs 'til we're lit up


              E MajorE
Tell ourselves that this is love
        A augmentedA
But it's never added up
           E MajorE   A augmentedA
And it will never be enough
         E MajorE   A augmentedA  E MajorE
It will never be enough

Verse 2:
E MajorE
It's the same corner booth
           A augmentedA
The same Smith street bar
A augmentedA
The same sour mouths
          E MajorE
And the same empty arms
E MajorE
Forever and ever our lives
  A augmentedA
On a loop
E MajorE
It's the same dollar draft
         A augmentedA
The same whiskey words
A augmentedA
The same hanging heart
         E MajorE
And the same old scorched earth
E MajorE
We're further and further
       A augmentedA   BB
Away from the truth

Chorus:
    C#m7C#m7  BB
I wanna stop it
    C#m7C#m7 BB
I wanna stop it
    C#m7C#m7  A augmentedA
I wanna stop it
                   E MajorE  A augmentedA  E MajorE  A augmentedA
But it's the only life I know how to live


Verse 3:
E MajorE
We make a mess of what matters
           A augmentedA
Give our good grace away
E MajorE
We try to drink the clock backwards
    A augmentedA
And pretend like nothing's changed
E MajorE                       A augmentedA
But you think I'm a liar, and you think I'm a fake
                        E MajorE
And I think you're a coward, but it's not what I say
                    A augmentedA     BB
I call you my brother, and you call me the same


Chorus:
    C#m7C#m7  BB
I wanna stop it
    C#m7C#m7 BB
I wanna stop it
    C#m7C#m7  A augmentedA
I wanna stop it
                   E MajorE
But it's the only life I know how to live

Chorus:

I wanna stop it
    C#m7C#m7 BB
I wanna stop it
    C#m7C#m7
I wanna stop it


Bridge:
    A augmentedA
Let the smear words spill out of the sides of our mouth;
               N.C.
Go be my ghost and I'll go be yours
N.C.             E MajorE    A augmentedA
But tonight brother, pour me one more
              E MajorE     A augmentedA
Oh tonight brother pour me one more
                E MajorE    A augmentedA
Yeah tonight I'll just cut you one more
                E MajorE
Yeah tonight I'll just cut you one more
  A augmentedA    E MajorE
One more, one more
