[Verse 1]
D5Polar oA5pposites don't Gpush aD5way
It's the saD5me on the wA5eekends as the Grest of the dD5ays
And I know D5I should A5go but I'll Gprobably D5stay
And that's D5all you can A5do about Gsome D5things
[Chorus]
D5I'm A5trying, GI'm D5trying to dD5rink away the A5part of the day
That I Gcannot sleep D5away
D5I'm A5trying, GI'm D5trying to dD5rink away the A5part of the day
That I Gcannot sleep D5away
[Verse 2]
(same as verse 1)
Two one eyed dogs, they're looking at stereos
Hi-fi Gods try so hard to make their cars low to the ground
These vibrations oil its teeth
Primer gray is the color when you're done dying
[Chorus]
D5I'm A5trying, GI'm D5trying to dD5rink away the A5part of the day
That I Gcannot sleep D5away
D5I'm A5trying, GI'm D5trying to dD5rink away the A5part of the day
That I Gcannot sleep D5away
