[Verse]
BmToday seems like a Ggood day to Emburn a bridge or F#two
The one with old wood creaking that would burn away right on cue
I try to be not like that but some people really suck
Some people need to get the axing chalk it up to bad luck
I know a drugstore cowgirl so afraid of getting bored
She's always running from something so many things ignored
I might do that stuff if it didn't make me feel like shit
I'm on some old reality tip so many trips in it
[Chorus]
EmBeauAtiful disastF#er       Bm  
EmFlyiAn' down the streF#et againBm  
EmI tried to keep Aup
You wF#ore me out and leBmft me ate up
EmNow I wish you aAll the luck
You're a bF#utterfly in the wiBmnd without a cEarAe
A prF#etty train crash to mBme and I can't caEreA  
I F#do I don't whateBver
[Verse]
I know a drugstore cowgirl so afraid of getting bored
She's always running from something so many things ignored
I try to be not like this but I thought it'd make a good song
There's nothing to see shows over people just move along
Beautiful disaster
Flyin' down the street again
I tried to keep up
You wore me out and left me ate up
Now I wish you all the luck
You're a butterfly in the wind without a care
A pretty train crash to me and I can't care
I do I don't whatever

Today seems like a good day to burn a bridge or two

The one with old wood creaking that would burn away right on cue

I try to be not like that but some people really suck

Some people need to get the axing chalk it up to bad luck

I know a drugstore cowgirl so afraid of getting bored

She's always running from something so many things ignored

I might do that stuff if it didn't make me feel like shit

I'm on some old reality tip so many trips in it
