[Verse 1]
E
I took a pill in Ibiza
B5
To show Avicii I was cool
A4
And when I finally got sober, felt 10 years older
E B5
But fuck it, it was something to do
E
I'm living out in LA
B5
I drive a sports car just to prove
A4
I'm a real big baller 'cause I made a million dollars
E B5
And I spend it on girls and shoes
[Chorus]
C#5
But you don't wanna be high like me
B5
Never really knowing why like me
A4 E B5
You don't ever wanna step off that roller coaster and be all alone
C#5
You don't wanna ride the bus like this
B5
Never knowing who to trust like this
A4
You don't wanna be stuck up on that stage singing
A4
Stuck up on that stage singing
E B5 A4 E B5
All I know are sad songs, sad songs
E B5 A4 E B5
Darling, all I know are sad songs, sad songs
[Verse 2]
E B5
I'm just a singer who already blew his shot
A4
I get along with old timers
E B5
'Cause my name's a reminder of a pop song people forgot
E
And I can't keep a girl, no
B5
'Cause as soon as the sun comes up
A4
I cut 'em all loose and work's my excuse
E B5
But the truth is I can't open up
[Chorus]
C#5
But you don't wanna be high like me
B5
Never really knowing why like me
A4 E B5
You don't ever wanna step off that roller coaster and be all alone
C#5
You don't wanna ride the bus like this
B5
Never knowing who to trust like this
A4
You don't wanna be stuck up on that stage singing
A4
Stuck up on that stage singing
E B5 A4 E B5
All I know are sad songs, sad songs
E B5 A4 E B5
Darling, all I know are sad songs, sad songs
[Bridge]

[Verse 3]
E
I took a plane to my home town
B5
I brought my pride and my guitar
A4
All my friends are all gone but there's manicured lawns
E B5
And the people still think I'm a star
E
I walked around downtown
B5
I met some fans on Lafayette
A4
They said Mike tell us how to make it 'cause we're getting real impatient
E B4
So I looked em in the eye and said
[Chorus]
C#5
You don't wanna be high like me
B4
Never really knowing why like me
A4 E B5
You don't ever wanna step off that roller coaster and be all alone
C#5
You don't wanna ride the bus like this
B5
Never knowing who to trust like this
A4
You don't wanna be stuck up on that stage singing
A4
Stuck up on that stage singing
E B5 A4 E B5
All that I know are sad songs, sad songs
E B5 A4 E
Darling, all that I know are sad songs, sad songs
