Tabbed by: Jason Scott

Tuning: Half-step down
This song's chords are easy; however, it took a long time for this noob to
find the right way to palm mute and have the right strum pattern. It's a
great way to learn palm muting!

[Verse 1]
Em G Cadd9
Am I loud and clear or am I breaking up?
Em G Cadd9
Am I still your charm or am I just bad luck?
Em G Cadd9 Asus
Are we getting closer, or are we just getting more lost?
Em G Cadd9
I'll show you mine if you show me yours first
Em G Cadd9
Let's compare scars I'll tell you whose is worse
Em G Cadd9 Asus
Let's unwrite these pages and replace them with our own words
[Chorus]
Em G Cadd9 Asus
We live on front porches and swing life away
Em G Cadd9 Asus
We get by just fine here on minimum wage
Em G Cadd9 Asus
If love is a labor I'll slave 'til the end
Em G Cadd9 Asus
I won't cross these streets until you hold my hand
[Verse 2]
Em G Cadd9
I've been here so long; think that its time to move
Em G Cadd9
The winter's so cold summer's over too soon
Em G Cadd9 Asus
so let's pack our bags and settle down where palm trees grow
Em G Cadd9
I've got some friends, some that I hardly know
Em G Cadd9
But we've had some times I wouldn't trade for the world
Em G Cadd9 Asus
We chase these days down with talks of the places that we will go
[Chorus]
Em G Cadd9 Asus
We live on front porches and swing life away
Em G Cadd9 Asus
We get by just fine here on minimum wage
Em G Cadd9 Asus
If love is a labor I'll slave 'til the end
Em G Cadd9 Asus
I won't cross these streets until you hold my hand
Cadd9 Asus
Until you hold my hand
Em G Cadd9
Swing life away
Em G Cadd9
Swing life away
Em G Cadd9 Asus
Swing life away
Em G Cadd9
Swing life away
[Outro]
