G
It's still so dark because it's
C/G     G
Still so early and the
C/G            G            D                          Cadd9   
Chipper little girly at the front desk doesn't mind at all
G
These phony living rooms and
C/G             G
Fake plants are killing me
     C/G          G               D           G       D   
This bad coffee's filling me with equal parts joy and rage

Cadd9                         D
Put my makeup on and crack in half
        Em
I choke back a laugh
         D               D#dim
Find the camera with the red light

Chorus

E    B/E     A/E   E
Good morning Tucson
                   B/E         A/E            E
   The lights come on and so I smile wide and say
     B/E     A/E   E
Good morning Tucson
E          B/E          D              G
I throw to you before I throw the rest away

G
When I was coming up I
C/G     G               
Got the donuts which means
C/G       G             D     Cadd9
I got the donuts that I wanted
G
There was no young punk
   C/G            G
To steal my jelly glaze
         C/G           G                   D              G   D
And I am still sort of amazed that you can be born in the nineties
Cadd9                       D
When I don't like what they talk about
           Em
I take the earpiece out
              D                  D#dim
But they just cue me through the window

Chorus

E    B/E     A/E   E
Good morning Tucson
                   B/E         A/E            E
   The lights come on and so I smile wide and say
     B/E     A/E   E
Good morning Tucson
E          B/E          A/E
I throw to you before I throw the rest away

Bridge

G#9               C#/G#        G#9              C#/G#
While they do the weather I pretend I'm writing something
        E9          A/E(2)E9         A/E(2)
But I'm really far away,  Really far away
  G#9           C#/G#             G#9             C#/G#
I keep my smile warm in case they turn the camera on
             E9                A/E(2) E9                A/E(2)
'Cause now I have something to say, I have something to say
G
The camera's melting but I
C/G       G
Just keep going, it's been a
C/G      G             D                        Cadd9
Pleasure knowing you I wish you all the best of luck
G
When the prompter dies I'm
C/G         G
Comfortable winging it I'm
C/G         G               D                   G     D
Practically singing it, the song that tears the world apart
Cadd9                       D
Through the smoke behind my parking space
         Em
I see my giant face
     D                D#dim
On a billboard by the highway

Chorus
E    B/E     A/E   E
Good morning Tucson
                   B/E         A/E            E
   The lights come on and so I smile wide and say
     B/E     A/E   E
Good morning Tucson
E          B/E          D              G
I throw to you before I throw the rest away
