♫ Intro:

D   Em7/B  Cadd9




♫ Verse :

D               Em7/B
I smoked my first cigarette
Cadd9
my cowboy killer
D

With a few close friends
Em7/B             Cadd9
so cold my hands went numb
D                      Em7/B
One girl, she talked about her
  Cadd9
boyfriend like a god
D
He had a dirty mouth, and
      Em7/B     Cadd9
we all ate it up
D
And there's someone new
        Em7/B
I been seein'
Cadd9
That shows me what

I've been missin'
D                     Em7/B     Cadd9
I never had that high school love
D
But this tastes like
          Em7/B     Cadd9
sophomore year to me
                        D
Got me learnin' all the words to
       Em7/B        Cadd9
his favorite songs


♫ Chorus:

D                       Em7/B
But I got gothic babe tendencies
Cadd9
I always choose the dark
                D
I avoid for the pain and say
Em7/B            Cadd9
"This is just for fun"
D                         Em7/B
Oh-oh
I got gothic babe tendencies
Cadd9
I always choose the dark
          D              Em7/B      Cadd9
But what if I surrendered to the sun?




♫ Verse :

D                          Em7/B
The woods back in my hometown
And
  Cadd9
Friday night Blockbuster countdowns
        D
How I'd choose the long way
       Em7/B        Cadd9
home to pass the beach
           D
Wish you'd ask that kind of question
Em7/B      Cadd9
The kind that digs for somethin' hidden
            D
But I'm not sure you'd like to
       Em7/B         Cadd9
 know that side of me
         D
Then you text me from a nightclub
Em7/B        Cadd9
You're out tonight like I was
D              Em7/B       Cadd9
Did you find a new plus one?
      D
Young Achilles, you got options
Em7/B            Cadd9
Maybe I should just freak off
        D
And let go (Go, go, go, go) of
   Em7/B        Cadd9
the wheel for once


♫ Chorus:

D                       Em7/B
But I got gothic babe tendencies
Cadd9
I always choose the dark
                D
I avoid for the pain and say
Em7/B         Cadd9
"This is just for fun"
D                         Em7/B
Oh-oh
I got gothic babe tendencies
Cadd9
I always choose the dark
          D              Em7/B      Cadd9
But what if I surrendered to the sun?




♫ Verse :


Uh-uh, yeah-yeah
D
we got matchin' scars
Em7/B
The kind that
      Cadd9
you pick and scratch
D
and they stay there for life
You were in my arms
    Em7/B            Cadd9
I'm left with this lonely heart and

movies in my mind
D
Everything you said is messin'
        Em7/B
with my head
Cadd9
I'm goin' crazy

I don't understand,

but I can't just pretend
           D
you don't sedate me

Maybe I feel like
    Em7/B             Cadd9
I don't deserve your love
But you could

save me from this self-sabotage
                 D
I'm havin' panic attacks now
I need alprazolam
Em7/B        Cadd9
I'm havin' withdrawals
I don't know who I am
       D
I was never the same after
  Em7/B          Cadd9
I got sober from you, yeah
                  D
Now it's over for you,

and it's over for me
Em7/B       Cadd9
Why do these words hurt so deeply?
            D
You were my favorite sunburn
Em7/B      Cadd9
I would like to save for another day


♫ Chorus:

D                       Em7/B
But I got gothic babe tendencies
Cadd9
I always choose the dark
                D
I avoid for the pain and say
Em7/B             Cadd9
"This is just for fun"
D                         Em7/B
Oh-oh
I got gothic babe tendencies
Cadd9
I always choose the dark
          D              Em7/B      Cadd9
But what if I surrendered to the sun?


♫ Post-Chorus:

             D              Em7/B  Cadd9
And I didn't run, run, run, run, run
         D              Em7/B  Cadd9
I didn't run, run, run, run, run
             D
And I didn't run, run
Em7/B   Cadd9
run, run, run (run)
         D              Em7/B  Cadd9
I didn't run, run, run, run, run
