2009

G                     C
I don't need to lie no more
         Am                        Em
Nowadays all I do is shine, take a breath and ease my mind, and
G                C
She don't cry no more
             Am
She tell me that I get her high 'cause a angel's s'posed to fly, and
G                         C
I ain't askin', "Why?" no more
          Am
Oh, no, I take it if it's mine, I don't stay inside the lines
   Em            C
It ain't 2009 no more
      Am                        Em
Yeah, I know what's behind that door

[Verse 1]
               G                C
Yeah, okay you gotta jump in to swim
          Am                    Em
Well, the light was dim in this life of sin
          G                  C
Now every day I wake up and breathe
Am
I don't have it all but that's alright with me
G                             C
Take it nice and easy, took a flight to see me
Am
Send you back home with a light that's beamin'
Em                      C
The whole team 'bout to figure it out
       Am                         Em
We ice cold, that's what winter about
               G                         C
And sometimes, sometimes I wish I took a simpler route
Am                                 Em
Instead of havin' demons that's as big as my house, mhmm
G                   C
Have a ball with a dribble and bounce
           Am                             Em
'Cause the party ain't over 'til they're kickin' me out, yeah
G                      C
Isn't it funny? We can make a lot of money
Am
Buy a lot of things just to feel a lot of ugly
Em        C
    I was yay high and muddy
Am
Lookin' for what was lookin' for me

[Chorus]
G                          C
But I don't need to lie no more
         Am                        Em
Nowadays all I do is shine, take a breath and ease my mind, and
G                 C
She don't cry no more
            Am
She tell me that I get her high 'cause a angel's s'posed to fly, and
G                        C
I ain't askin', "Why?" no more
           Am
Oh, no, I take it if it's mine, I don't stay inside the lines
   Em            C
It ain't 2009 no more
     Am                          Em
Yeah, I know what's behind that door

[Verse 2]
           G                       C
Yeah, they ask me what I'm smilin' for
Am                                 Em
Well, because I've never been this high before
G                           C
It's like I never felt alive before
      Am
Mhmm, I'd rather have me peace of mind than war
G                   C
See me and you, we ain't that different
Am
I struck the fuck out and then I came back swingin'
        Em                C
Take my time to finish, mind my business
Am                           Em
A life ain't a life 'til you live it
                   G                   C
I was diggin' me a hole big enough to bury my soul
Am                           Em
Weight of the world, I gotta carry my own
        G                      C
My own, with these songs I can carry you home
Am
I'm right here when you scared and alone
                       G
And I ain't never in a hurry
           C
You don't ever gotta worry
Am                                          Em
Even when it's 7:30 and the time is runnin' low
          C
When your heart get cold
Am                          Em
See what's behind all them unturned stones
          G                       C
And I'm a pro when it come to my job
    Am                           Em
But really I'm just tryna start believin' in God
   G             C
Now when it gets hard
Am                               Em
I don't panic, I don't sound the alarm

[Chorus]
        G                      C
Because I don't need to lie no more
         Am                        Em
Nowadays all I do is shine, take a breath and ease my mind, and
Bm                C
She don't cry no more
            Am
She tell me that I get her high 'cause a angel's s'posed to fly, and
G                         C
I ain't askin', "Why?" no more
           Am
Oh, no, I take it if it's mine, I don't stay inside the lines
Em                C
It ain't 2009 no more
Am                              Em
Yeah, I know what's behind that door
G                      C
I don't need to lie no more
         Am                         Em
Nowadays all I do is shine, take a breath and ease my mind, and
G                 C
She don't cry no more
             Am
She tell me that I get her high 'cause a angel's s'posed to fly, and
G                        C
I ain't askin', "Why?" no more
        Am
Oh, no, I take it if it's mine, I don't stay inside the lines
   Em            C
It ain't 2009 no more
      Am
Yeah, I know what's behind that door
