   E5*
That tension you can cut with a knife
    BB
Like a wedding ring that never fit right
    E5*
Like a car alarm that won't stop howling
 BB   (B5B5)    F#/A#
A augmentedA decade lost in the motions
  G#5G#5
To romance and cheap whiskey
  B5B5
The subtle sound of a fleeting feeling
   G#5G#5
Like four chords that don't love you no more
   B5B5
In a motel room, a sleeping bag on the floor
        E5E5
'Cause they're all the same
                  B5B5
Things can't change 'cause they're all the same
                  E5E5
Things can't change 'cause they're all the same
                  B5B5
Things can't change 'cause they're all the same

(Repeat)
B5B5      F#/A#  G#5G#5
