Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][A][Bm][A]
[G]Should I let the words flow

[Verse 1]
from [F#m]my mou[A]th?
Right down your [D]street
(While you're [G]still home)
I hope you'll hear [F#m]me[Bm][F#m]
[G]'Cause if I feel this low again,
[F#m]I'll s[A]crape the d[D]eep end
[G]But maybe then I'll stop pretend

[Verse 2]
[F#m]ing
[Bm]Maybe then I'll stop[F#m] pretending
[G]That things just felt

[Verse 3]
so [D]can
[A]cerous for a while
[G]I'm in the in- between
[Bm]Like New Buffalo and O[A]ak Street
[G]I hope the thought of me keeps[D]
you [A]away from the [G]beach
'Cause I don't care if you can't [Bm]sleep
No, I don't care if you [F#m]can't [G]sle[F#m]ep
[A]Don't think I c[D]are if you can't sle[G]ep

[Interlude 1]
[F#m][Bm]
[F#m][G][F#m][A][D][G][F#m][Bm]
[F#m]
[G]Stay away

[Verse 4]
from the lake
[Bm]'Cause if you [F#m]see me,
I'll [G]be skipping memories
I [Bm]swore I'd keep [F#m]with me
[G]In constant hopes tha[D]t they'll erode
[Bm]Just like the [F#m]glass we'd take home[D]
[G]Left to rot in a window

[Verse 5]
[D]well
[Bm]They're left to rot in your [D]window well
[G]So

[Verse 6]
things just felt so [D]can
[A]cerous for a while
[G]I'm in the in- between
[Bm]Like New B[A]uffalo and Oak Street
[G]I hope the thought of me keeps[D]
you [A]away from the [G]beach
'Cause I don't care if you can't [Bm]sleep
No, I don't care if you [A]can
[G]'t sleep

[Interlude 2]
[A][Bm][A]
[G]When I close

[Verse 7]
my eye[A]s,
I feel your summer skin
[Bm]It pulls me ap[G]ar[Bm]t and [A]rips
me [G]open
When I close my eye[A]s,
I feel the warmth of the sun
[Bm]It takes me back where I was[A]
where my youth was [D]stolen
[G]When I close my eyes,
[A]I feel your summer skin
[Bm]It pulls me apart an[A]d rips me open
[G]When I close my eyes,
[A]I feel the warmth of the sun
[Bm]It takes me back where I was
where [A]my youth [D]was stolen[G]
