F C F G C [Verse]F I found an old notebook filled up with picturesC Found my friends in hospital beds with facial stitchesF C We sat around the table, drinking hoping no one would ever dieF A scribble of an elephant withC "Why I can't draw and why everyone is evil"F C Written above it in faded black inkF Heated debate about the legal systemC Let's have a rally, let's start a revolutionF C Set fires under our feet and do our best not to stamp it outF And all I can see through the rooftops and the chimneysC Is the top of a billboard that reads "love"F C And I think it's an advert for nasal spray technology but in my current state it doesn't matter much [Bridge]F G F G And these things are consuming but there's more to me than lack of sleep and anxietyF G F G And darling you've befriended dropouts and drifters, so why would you expect anything different?C Em7 Am7 C Em7 Am7 G But this is a summer song, and I want you all to sing along [Chorus]F It goes da dadadada da da da dadadadaC Da dadadada da da da dadadadaF G C Da dadadada da da da da-a-a-aa [Verse 2]F And a woman with a face that slid right down to the top of her dressC Told me I'd succeed because I'd been touched by a goddessF C If technology's taught me anything it's that writing is much easier than speakingF That walking's best done in silenceC And rooftops are best left leakingF And as we boarded up the walls where our fists had fell the night beforeC I said, "I'm sorry that I shout, I'm not sorry that I don't put outF C I'm sorry I can't understand things unless I find music in them."F C And you know that you feel like I left you, but you left me without much of a choiceF C I haven't learnt to draw but at least I never lost, never lost my voice [Bridge]F G F G And these things are consuming but there's more to me than lack of sleep and anxietyF G F G And darling you've befriended dropouts and drifters, so why would you expect anything different?C Em7 Am7 C Em7 Am7 G But this is a summer song, and I want you all to sing along [Chorus]F It goes da dadadada da da da dadadadaC Da dadadada da da da dadadadaF G C Da dadadada da da da da-a-a-aaF Da dadadada da da da dadadadaC Da dadadada da da da dadadadaF G C Da dadadada da da da da-a-a-aa
