Bass Tab

Tuning: Standard (E A D G)


Intro:

*break*


Verse 1:

  I've been having a hard time adjusting / I had the shiniest wheels, now they're rusting
  I didn't know if you'd care if I came back / I have a lot of regrets about that
  Pulled the car off the road to the lookout / Could've followed my fears all the way down
  And maybe I don't quite know what to say / But I'm here in your doorway

Interlude:

*break for 8 bars*


Verse 2:

  They told me all of my cages were mental / So I got wasted like all my potential
  And my words shoot to kill when I'm mad / I have a lot of regrets about that
  I was so ahead of the curve, the curve became a sphere / Fell behind all my classmates and I ended up here
  Pouring out my heart to a stranger / But I didn't pour the whiskey

Bridge:

  And it's hard to be at a party when I feel like an open wound
  It's hard to be anywhere these days when all I want is you
  You're a flashback in a film reel on the one screen in my town
