Intro:

F# C# A

Bbm      G#
Laying down inside
    C#
And you say you're not surprised
    F#  C# A Bbm
but you were

(Woah)
     F#
Now it's raining outside
        C#      F/A
But if there's rain or not
    Bbm       G#
You can tell you're not okay
     C#
From the way you hide
      F#
And you're not knowing
     C#  F/A   Bbm
What the cure is  tonight
    F#        C#  F/A
You can get all defensive silently
  Bbm       G#/C   C#
Or you can try and accept it all
F#
Let's go
C#   A/C#
You'll see
  Bbm      Bb
The latter's me

Verse 1:
F    A/C#  Dm
 I open both my eyes
          C/E    F  Bb
And nothing's gonna get in the way
F     Am   Dm
I kept the stress alive

I need a change, alright

There's something wrong
     Bb
if you're calm in your life
    C    A/C#
And you suddenly think
      Am Dm
That you're not feeling quitе
C/E  C  F
As you were last week
    Bb
If you stare at thе
       C
state of your yesterdays
     Dm
Problems await


Chorus:
       Bb
I'll keep the drama out my head
    C      C#
I could hang with my friends
    Dm     C/E  C   F
And be present, instead, for a while
     Bb
Keep the drama out my life
  C       Am      Dm
Get distracted and high for the moment, yeah
        Bb
I think that's enough stress for one day
    C
No one hears what we say
Dm          C/E       F
Either way, they can think what they like
    Bb
I open up and trust my choice
     C      Adim
I'm gon' hang with my boys
  Am  Dm
And just take time, yeah


Verse 2:
      Bb
F**k my to-do list and my plans
     C    Am
I'm gon' go to Japan
Dm         C/E C F
Take the train, Tokyo to Kyoto

Explore the world,
  Bb
hit Hawaii onto Lanai
    C   A
We can leave life behind,
    Dm
No problemo (No, oh-oh)

No, it wouldn't mean shit to me
     Bb
See, the point I'm at right now
    C      A
What's about to go down
   Dm     C/E  C   F
Is uncertain, it seems, every time
          Bb
So I'm not wasting anymore
     C   Am Dm
Time to explore, for sure, yeah, yeah
      Bb
(Uh-uh, uh-uh)


Pre-Chorus:

C     C#m
I paid the price
   Dm         C
I let my feelings get the best of me
   F
And I left myself tonight
Bb
Embarrassment delivered
  C            Am
And it comes as no surprise
Dm
Feelin' pain right to the limit

And it still won't sympathize


Chorus:
       Bb
I'll keep the drama out my head
     C      Am
I'm gon' hang with my friends
     Dm  C  F
And just write
       Bb
I'll keep the drama out my life
    C      A      Dm
We can go where we like, that's right
(Woah)
       Bb
Turn off the phone and keep it off
   C    Am      Dm
It's okay to ignore and log off
 Em F Bb C C#m Dm
Ooo
