[Intro]
D A Em G
[Verse 1]
D A
Listening to red house
Em
Sitting in my white shirt
G
When I thought about the grass stains
Thought about the red dirt.
D A
It's funny when Spring blooms
Em
The funny way the birds sing
G
I always think I'm gonna sing too
But I forget the melody.
[Chorus]
D A
La, da, da, da.
Em
La, da, da, da.
G
Or something like that.
[Verse 2]
D A Em
High school's been dead now for ten years
G
Isn't that some shit?
D A Em
And from here on out you'll, you'll keep on losing things
G
So get used to it.
D A Em
She said she wished we lived different lives
G
Now that's some shit
D A Em
And the only thing I'm good for is a melody and some poor advice
G
So here it is.
[Chorus]
D A
La, da, da, da.
Em
La, da, da, da.
G
Oh I forget.
D A
La, da, da, da.
Em
La, da, da, da.
G
Or something like that.
[Bridge]
D A
Listening to red house
Em
Sitting in my white shirt
G
See every day's a funeral
Or every day's a new birth.
D A
If you're not everything
Em
You're nothing till you try to be
G
Nobody needs saving
Just a little bit of empathy.
[Outro]
D A Em G
You can't save the ones you love,
D A Em
You can't save the ones you love,
G
But who would really want to?
D A Em
You can't save the ones you love,
G
But who would really want to?
D A Em G
You can't save the ones you love.
