[Intro]
Em D Em D
There's a lot of nothing in the Cwords I know
But I keep on talking 'cause it Dfeels like home
Feels alright to be gCrowing old
But growing old is just Dletting go
And it's just the reason I needed to Cleave this place
I took the whole morning to Drun away
I had a different image Con my mind
It's just it changes always, Dall the time
And it coBmmes as no surprise it's like (Cohh ohhh ohh)
DI just don't know what you're doing (EmOhh ohhh ohh)
Gwrong Yeah (Cohh ohhh ohhh) Dwrong Bmwrong
Man you've got a lot of nervCe
DI just don't know what you're doing (EmOhh ohhh ohh)
Gwrong Yeah (Cohh ohhh ohhh) Dwrong Bmwrong
Man you've got a lot of nervCe
C D C D
How come all my vices always Cbreed relief
When a sip of gin saves an Dhour of speech?
And yeh it's fickle and it Cfeels so cheap
But I can rest and I can Dfeel at ease
It's my friends don't know the half Cthey're just listening
I'm at a loss 'cause DI'm living it
That's not to say that I'm Cgiving it
It's just that this is how it's Dalways been
And it coBmmes as no surprise it's like (Cohh ohhh ohh)

Em D Em D

There's a lot of nothing in the words I know

But I keep on talking 'cause it feels like home
