[Verse 1]
D
I'd write you a love song
G
But I don't know how that feels
A
Tonight I am numb
D
From a cocktail of pills
D
I hallucinate
G
Think I'm touchin' your skin
A
I'd much rather die
D
Than think of the bed that you're in
[Chorus]
Em G D A
And the streetlights, they might as well burn on out
Em G D A
Ain't nothing bright as you ever stepped foot in this godforsaken town
Em G D A
You were right and you left and I'm wonderin' what the hell I should do?
Em G D
I'd seen it all, or so I thought, until I met you
[Verse 2]
D
We didn't get our books
G
In bed every night
A
Or dance in the kitchen
D
Drunk off of some shitty wine
D
I didn't get that ring
G
There on my hand
A
I didn't get your name
D
In ink all over my skin
[Chorus]
Em G D A
And the streetlights, they might as well burn on out
Em G D A
Ain't nothing bright as you ever stepped foot in this godforsaken town
Em G D A
You were right and you left and I'm wonderin' what the hell I should do?
Em G D
I'd seen it all, or so I thought, until I met you
[Bridge]
A Am7/G
Now I ain't tryn to ask you to save me
A Am7/G
Even I don't like who I've been lately
A Am7/G
And I'm well aware that I might not ever find glory
A Am7/G
But like Hemingway and Hadley, it's not the end of our story
[Verse 3]
D
Sit here tonight
G
Alone with my thoughts
A
Alone with my sins
D
And the things that I've bought
D
I told you I loved you
G
The night that we met
A
I felt it back then
D
And it ain't left me yet
[Chorus]
Em G D A
And the streetlights, they might as well burn on out
Em G D A
Ain't nothing bright as you ever stepped foot in this godforsaken town
Em G D A
You were right and you left and I'm wonderin' what the hell I should do?
Em G D A
I'd seen it all, or so I thought, until I met you
[Outro]
Em G D
I'd seen it all, or so I thought, until I lost you
