[Verse 1]
[C]A split- second decision-
making process:
I'm taking breaks from back-
breaking posture.
I'm [G]heading [Em]down a spiral [G]staircase,
[C]turned [G]around
To bated [C]breath I can see in front of me.
[G]I'll [C]push tempo through tap and teeth.
I'll [Am]breathe [Em]out to the [C]tun e[Em]
[C]of turn[G] ing in right now.

[Verse 2]
So if [Em]it's not [C]too late for
introductions' sake,
I would draw my [Am]most [Em]modest
savings and make [G]the night fun.
But if we're tak[C]ing bets,
this is probably as good as this night gets.
For the sake of this [Am]song,
[Em]this was about you all a[G]long.
[D]It's a drunk[C]en sucker-

[Verse 3]
[Em]push,
it's a [G]fragile fist across the chin.
And [D]I'm laugh[C]ing at all the
[Em]trouble [G]this will get you in.

[Verse 4]
[C]A split- second decision-
making process:
You'll run inside and tell our friends
[G]what you've just done-
A churning pulse through [D]everyone
[C]Chase you down the block,
we just wanted to talk.
But you're bricked- up and
clocked across [Em]the face.
Photo frozen, and [G]re- arranged that way.
It's [D]a drunk[C]en sucker-

[Verse 5]
[Em]push,
[G]it's a fragile fist across the chin.
And we're [D]laugh[C]ing at [Em]all the trouble
this [G]has got you in.

[Verse 6]
You should [C]have known I wasn't
[Em]really [C]act[Em]ing like a d[Am]ick.[G]
If you know me,
you'd know I'd be the [F]first to admit it.
[C]So pound for pound,
[Em]we're wearing [C]out the [Em]ground.[G]
But tattooed assholes starting fights [F]don't [G]ever [F]know when to end their [G]night
[C]s.[Em]

[Interlude 1]
[G][Em][C][Em][G][Em][C][Em]
[G][Am][C][Em][G][F][C]

[Verse 7]
Pound [C]for pound,
[Em]we're breaking i[C]n new [Em]ground.[G]
[C]Sober sou[Em]nd, I'm[C] breathing in the best and
[Em]worst of [C]everyone around.
[Em][C][Em]

[Verse 8]
[C]
[Em]Truly, [C]this was abo[Em]ut you[C] al[G]l along.[C]
