im so stoked about breathable oxygen

so long is thirty miles long

[ch]E[/ch]                        [ch]D[/ch]
city life is so not attractive

                 [ch]B[/ch]                 [ch]A[/ch]
when paranoias gotten the best of me

I look long and hard. im always wrong.

eight years, five months to blame for who i am today

[ch]A[/ch]                      [ch]D[/ch]

[ch]D[/ch]
old friends still talk to some

    [ch]E[/ch]
crawl back under the rock i came from

[ch]A[/ch]                     [ch]D[/ch]
yeah i was born in new jersey
              [ch]E[/ch](high) 
and it will        die in me.



[ch]E[/ch](high)                        [ch]D[/ch]
spent some time away from my feelings

                                [ch]A[/ch]
while everything around me was crushing me

for long, denying being wrong.

[ch]E[/ch]                       [ch]D[/ch]                                              [ch]A[/ch]
I broke down, built up, I broke down. i broke down. Built up broke down twice.
