E B C#m A B E C#m A
[Verse 1]
E B
I’m trying to stay awake riding back to the park
C#m A
in the trunk of a car in your jacket in your arms
E B
Nothing smears like my lipstick and talking shit
C#m A
on tall boys over tall cans in the dark
E B
I’ve never been that good at standing up to the way that people treat me but i
C#m A
sure as hell can tell what you mean when you're screaming at me that
E B
i will never be able to get close to anyone
C#m A
as long as i am unable to admit that they are hurting me
E B
And i miss you more than i miss home
C#m A
let’s set fire to this car and let the radiator blow
E B
Meet me on the porch at 3am to stomp to death the fear that lives
C#m A
beneath the floorboards of my chest and drown it out in cigarettes
E A B
E B A
E A B
E B A
[Bridge]
E A
And i would love to tell you that it gets better, and it does get better
B E C#m A
but it also gets so much fucking worse
E A
and without laundering food stamps railing xanax at the beach
C#m B A
that town doesn’t mean shit to me
[Chorus]
B
I’m fighting off sleep riding
E B C#m A
back to the park in the trunk of a car
E B
in your jacket in your arms
C#m A E B
Nothing smears like my lipstick
C#m A E B C#m A
and talking shit on tall boys over tall cans in the dark
[Verse 2]
E B
And i can’t sleep when i’ve got
C#m A E B C#m A
somewhere to be like climbing past chain link fences and second chances like
B E
decolonizing my relationship with myself and with my art and
E B C#m A
with the capitalist idea i’ve got a responsibility to be productive
[Bridge]
E A
And i would love to tell you all the pointless shit i did today
B E C#m A
but we haven’t talked in months and we’re a thousand miles away from
E A
each others sunburnt bodies,smoking spliffs and climbing trees,
C#m B A
at least that’s how i hope you will remember me
[Chorus]
B
I’m fighting off sleep riding
E B C#m A
back to the park in the trunk of a car
E B
in your jacket in your arms
C#m A E B
Nothing smears like my lipstick
C#m A E B C#m A
and talking shit on tall boys over tall cans in the dark
[Verse 3]
E B C#m A
But asleep inside that notion of femininity as silence,
E B C#m A
vulnerability or patience literally anything but violence
E A
it’s just coercion into pacifism like “don’t stand up, bash back, and don’t ask questions”
E B C#m A
cause you’ll uncover an objective with a more materialist intention
[Outro]
E A
And i would love to tell you all the pointless shit i did today
B E C#m A
but we haven’t talked in months and we’re a thousand miles away from
E A
each others sunburnt bodies,smoking spliffs and climbing trees,
C#m B A
at least that’s how i hope you will remember me
E A B
E B A
E A B
E B A
