Intro Eb Bb F

Eb
 Ever since I pulled over

     Bb            F
I've been looking for you in the strangest places

Eb              Bb
  With desperation painted on my face and I'm shaking

   Gm               Cm
As I check every car window in the parking lot

             Gm
Swallowing these ashes whole

               Bb
And know that soon I'll be en route to the hospital


--Chorus--

Eb       Bb    Eb     Gm
You think I've got it all 'til tires start to crawl

Eb     Bb         Gm   F
I'm asleep at the wheel, this binge is monumental


Eb
Getting high in a borrowed car

   Bb                 Eb
and listening to the songs that got me this far into my own head.

Bb
  Just thinking of this, always thinking of this

Gm             Cm            G#
  Put on a pair of sunglasses that turn February grey into everything
Gm                  Eb
yellow. You'll always want to see as much of the sky

Eb           Bb
As much of the sky as possible


--Chorus--

Eb        Bb     Eb     Gm
You'd think I've got it all 'til tires start to crawl

Eb     Bb        Gm     F
I'm asleep at the wheel, this binge is monumental

Eb       Bb    Eb        Gm
And I feel no pain at all when these tires screech down to a halt

Eb        Bb       Gm     F
 Asleep hitting the wall, this binge is monumental

Eb
Greet the world with a poker face
Through empty bottles in a haze

Bb             Cm
They won't suspect a thing now will they?

Eb
Itemize your life in a panicked state
So you can sleep at night

         Bb      Cm
And dream about never turning old and grey

Gm          F      Gm     F
  Catching my breath now seems as useless as airplane conversations

G#      Gm       Eb
  'cause I enjoy toiling in all of my frustration!


--Chorus--
Eb       Bb      Eb    Gm
You think I've got it all 'til tires start to crawl

Eb     Bb         Gm     F
I'm asleep at the wheel, this binge is monumental

Eb      Bb     Eb         Gm
And I feel no pain at all when these tires screech down to a halt

Eb        Bb       Gm     F
  Asleep hitting the wall, this binge is monumental

  Gm    F        G#   Gm     Eb
My skin is peeling from the searing steel surrounding us

Eb Bb
