Play the A and D open chords while muting the high E string.
A  D  A  D
When you Amake it to your driveway, 
Will you Dcall to let me know that you're ok?
And when you Amake it to your bedroom, 
Do you Dcollapse on your bed right away?
Or Ado you lay and think about how Dfucking lonely you've become?
You're obAsessed with revenge and it's starting again, 
Bad tatDmaj7toos oh and losing the saddest of friends.

When you Amake a decent living, will you Dbuy me a train set and a hat?
So that AI can sit alone in my room, sending Dpeople away from the ones they love.

AOh my god, I think I'm in love.
DYes, I know that this must be love when you F#mache through the days, 
Because Eyou'll never mend your ways.Dsus2  Dm
