Hey everyone! This song is pretty simple, fun to play and sing. GREAT SONG. I hope you
enjoy it as I do. Also, please note that I wasn't sure about the part inbetween the two
at the end. I suggest you just make it up yourself because that's what I do since I
figure out what those chords are. Okay, here we go!

[INTRO] E + bass run
[VERSE 1]
E C#m
Your house, the coffee tastes like dirt.
A B B7
Not because I’m hurt, no. That’s just what it tastes like.
E C#m
Dirt roads remind me of my skin.
A
Not because I’m wasting away with the gravel you ground in.
B B7
That’s what it feels like.
C#m A
I won’t be sorry, won’t go moping around. In fact I’m doing quite well for
now.
[CHORUS]
E
There’s something ‘bout giving up, that sounds so bittersweet.
G#m C#m
Think I’ll throw in the towel right now.
A
I’ll lay low on the ground, and I’ll be on my feet,
B
when I can breathe. When I’m good and ready.
E + bass run
[VERSE 2]

This tree, with lover’s heart engraved.
A B B7

Sunshine digs underneath my nails.

scorching all my faith as far as I can tell.

Look at my face, believe me now.
