Intro:

      C  Em  D  C  Em  D
(Yeah)                 

Verse 1:
C                              Em  D
Achy hands, I wake up just to find  
             C                                         Em  D
This ain't a one-way frozen street, we're on borrowed time  
          C                                         Em  D
Even the thoughts that we hold dear still live and die  
                C                                           Em  D
See, there's an old white blank washboard in the shadow of mine  

[Instrumental]
G  Am  Em  C  G  Am  Em  C
                         

Chorus:
   G                  Am        Em  C
Before you leave, take your disease  
       G                                        Am            Em  C
Then again, I'm aware that you tend to come and go as you please  
   G                  Am         Em   C
Before you go, just know you're wrong  
       G                                Am            Em  C
Then again, I'm aware that you tend to fake what you know

Post-Chorus:
G  Am  Em  C
Oh.        

Verse 2:
C                                         Em  D
Sail in the winds, I won't catch your debris  
C                                        Em  D
Just like fall, it creeps in like a melody   
C                                 Em  D
I go by your love, but it's so empty  
                C                                         Em  D
You think this hurts me, dude, I'm so far from losing sleep   

[Instrumental]
G  Am  Em  C  G  Am  Em  C
                         

Chorus:
   G                  Am        Em  C
Before you leave, take your disease  
       G                                        Am            Em  C
Then again, I'm aware that you tend to come and go as you please  
   G                  Am         Em   C
Before you go, just know you're wrong  
       G                                Am            Em  C
Then again, I'm aware that you tend to fake what you know  

Post-Chorus:
G  Am  Em  C
Oh.        
G  Am  Em  C
Oh.
