[Intro]
C D G Em D G
[Verse 1]
Take my soul
C
Take my heart
G
Tear me apart
Em
If I'm good for anything
D
Its all of this suffering
G
So use me for parts
C
To you I'm just salvage
G
I ain't ran right in years
Em
So drive me then gut me
D
Deceive and fuck me
G
Then disappear
C
Take all my jokes
G
And tell them to them
Em
And act like you're someone
D G
That could be someone, worth loving
C
And steal all the good parts
G
You found in me
Em
Yeah, you'll sell 'em quick
D
Yeah, you'll sell 'em cheap
G
Hеy, you'll give 'em for free
C
But I cleanеd all my pistons
G
I'm running on 91
Em
And I'm piecing myself
D
Back off the shelf
G
One by one
C
And now I've got a driver
G
Who chooses the high road
Em
They don't use me for scraps
D
Or throw my ass back
G
When I hit potholes
[Verse 2]
C
And I'm flying down freeways
G
Going 117
Em*
And a '68 Fastback
D*
Looks like a hatchback
G
Racing me
C G
Ah, I believe
Em
You cannot tear down
D
What's built up strong now
G
Thankfully
C G
Oh I believe
Em
That you cannot teardown
D
What's built up strong now
G
Thankfully
C
And I'm tearing down freeways
G
Going 117
Em
And a '68 Fastback
D G
Looks like a hatchback next to me
