E            G#m           A
  I've got a winning lotto ticket
          B            E
From the state of Massachusetts
G#m                      A
Tucked in the back of my wallet
     B                        E
I'll cash it when I'm back in Boston
       B/D#               C#m
With a blank eye from the cashier
    B                 E     B A G#m F#m
For why it's torn and busted up

Verse 2:
E     G#m
  I remember that moment of
A       B
silence I was at a mall
   E       G#m
in Norwich Shoppers
              A
stared at the ground
    B
The escalators went
    E              B/D# C#m
on smoke breaks Oh 1918

Chorus 1:
A
  Maybe the future is
just a little bit weird
E
  Maybe the God you love
   C#m
is all I've got to fear
A
  Life is a terminal illness
            E
in remission So I took the
             C#m
weight of it all out for a drink
            A
And then we drove back drunk
                             A
Through the busy city streets


Verse 3:
E            G#m          A

Every time I try to speak
   G#m            A
In front of a big crowd
         B             E
A pretty girl or the police
      B/D#     C#m
And I hate the things that
  B          E       G#m
I know about you And all the
A        B
horrible things that you do

chew up my dinner and
 B           E
spit in your face
      G#m          C#m
Light fire to your home
    B        E         C#m B F#m G#m A G#m F#m
and tap your cell phone
