Am            Fmaj7
I am good but I am grounded

Remember when you lost your shit and
C               Gsus4
Drove the car into the garden
Am              Fmaj7
You got out and said "I'm sorry"
C              Gsus4
To the vines and no one saw it

Am  Fmaj7    C      Gsus4
I---  need my girl
Am  Fmaj7    C      Gsus4
I---  need my girl

I'm under the gun again
 C            Gsus4       Am     Fmaj7
I know I was a 45-percenter then
C             Gsus4
I know I was a lot of things

    Am           Fmaj7
But I am good but I am grounded
C              Gsus4

Am                      Fmaj7
There's some things that I should never
C              Gsus4
Laugh about in front of family
Am            Fmaj7
In a week we'll be together
C              Gsus4
Try to call you when I'm landing

To the vines and no one saw it
Am                  Fmaj7
I'll try to call you from the party
C                     Gsus4
It's full of punks and cannonballers
