I Do This All The Time

     Bm        A          D/F#
Look up, lean back, be strong
                        G
You didn't think you'd live this long
      Bm        A            D/F#
Be as one, hold on, steady stand
                     G
For as long as you think you can



[Verse 1]
Bm                     A
 Old habits die for a couple of weeks
                                  D/F#
And then I start doing them again
                                     G
This sun is making me feel like I'm missing out on something
                       Bm
But if I went to your barbecue
                                         A
I'd feel uncomfortable and not be sure what to say anyway
                  D/F#
It's like when I go to your birthday
                        G
Drinks to congratulate you being the age I already thought you were
    Bm
Or not, I don't know
        A
It's a miracle, I've remembered at all
D/F#
 When I'm buried in the ground
           G
I won't be able to make your birthday drinks
                        Bm
But I will still feel guilty
                  A
You see, when the air warms up like this
                        D/F#
It brings every single memory of you back
                    G
And it makes me so sick, I can't breathe
       Bm                               A
Except I am still breathing, aren't I?
     D/F#                             G
Sometimes I think that's the problem



[Chorus]
        Bm        A          D/F#
So look up, lean back, be strong
                        G
You didn't think you'd live this long
      Bm        A            D/F#
Be as one, hold on, steady stand
                     G
For as long as you think you can


[Verse 2]
Bm
 Be very careful out there
  A
Stop trying to have so many friends
D/F#                                          G
 Don't be intimidated by all the babies they have
                                             Bm
Don't be embarrassed that all you've had is fun
             A
Prioritise pleasure
                  D/F#
Don't send those long paragraph texts
          G
Stop it, don't
 Bm
Getting married isn't the biggest day of your life
         A
All the days that you get to have are big
D/F#                                          G
 Be wary of the favours that they do for you
Bm                                           A
 They'll tell you I'm wrong, they'll tell you (I do this all the time)
D/F#                                         G
 They'll tell you I'm wrong, they'll tell you (I do this all the time)



[Chorus]
        Bm        A          D/F#
So look up, lean back, be strong
                        G
You didn't think you'd live this long
      Bm        A            D/F#
Be as one, hold on, steady stand
                     G
For as long as you think you can



[Verse 3]
Bm                                            A
 All you need to do, darling, is fit in that little dress of yours
                                    D/F#
If you weren't doing this you'd be working in McDonald's
             G
So try and cheer up, I'm not sure
        Bm
You're moving around too much, you need to stand still
 A
Be more like Mairead, shh
  D/F#
Stop showing off
          D/F#
You're a good girl
          D/F#
You're a good, tall girl
          D/F#              G
You're a good, sturdy girl
     Bm
One day I would love to tell you
         A
How the best night of your life
                  D/F#          G
Was the absolute worst of mine


[Chorus]
        Bm        A          D/F#
So look up, lean back, be strong
                        G
You didn't think you'd live this long
      Bm        A            D/F#
Be as one, hold on, steady stand
                     G
For as long as you think you can



[Verse 4]
Bm
 Now and again you make complete sense
     A                                                 D/F#
But most of the time I'm sat here feeling stupid for trying
                       G
My hunger times, my impatience equals the problem
Bm
 You're beautiful and I want the best for you
      A                              D/F#
But I also hope you fail without me
        G
It was really rather miserable trying to love you

Bm              A                D/F#             G
 I'll take care, I'll read again, I'll sing again, I will
Bm              A                D/F#             G
 I'll take care, I'll read again, I'll sing again, I will
    Bm
We laid there in the darkness and you were asleep
    Bm
And I wasn't checking my phone for a moment and I felt—
