[Verse 1]
G                                    Cadd9  Dadd4/C  Cadd9
 No one told the birds the world was ending
G                                Cadd9  Dadd4/C  Cadd9
 So they keep singing like it's spring
G                        Cadd9  Dadd4/C  Cadd9
 I walk with Colin after dinner
           G                                Cadd9  Dadd4/C  Cadd9
We split a coke and watch the sunset do its thing
 
 
[Verse 2]
    Am                                 D
The church around the corner is having service on the lawn
            Em                          Cadd9
And drawing pictures on the pavement in pastel sidewalk chalk
   Am                                D
Of doves and palms and cartoon Jesus dying on the cross
         Cadd9                       Cm
I say he must be running late and we sorta laugh it off
 
 
[Chorus]
                      G               D      Cadd9
I've been having that dream where I'm dying again
                    G     D               Cadd9
The one where I get sick   and we can't afford it
                   G                  D        Cadd9
I've been walking around here with no health insurance
                  G        D               Cadd9
And we can barely keep the lights on as it is

[Verse 3]
G                             Cadd9  Dadd4/C  Cadd9
 Start the truck, I named her Chelsea
G                          Cadd9  Dadd4/C  Cadd9
 I'm up and out before the sun
G                              Cadd9  Dadd4/C  Cadd9
 A pack of smokes, gas station coffee
                 G                             Cadd9  Dadd4/C  Cadd9
That tastes like shit and doesn't even wake me up
 
 
[Verse 4]
     Am                                   D
Some guy I knew from high school got me a job here with his dad
       Em                            Cadd9
So now I install garage doors on the south shore while it lasts
        Am                                 D
And my skin looks like a minefield, the mosquitos got me bad
        Cadd9               Cm
But I'm happy for the work, that's where I saw Sam
 
 
[Bridge]
                        Gadd11         Gadd9
"I thought that you got out of here in high school
          Am                  C
I can't believe that you came back"
           Gadd11          Gadd9
You said, "We should get a drink soon
               Am           C
I'll catch you up on all of that"
         Am                     C
I said, "I get paid on Fridays, meet me down at Jack's"
 
 
[Chorus]
                      G               D      Cadd9
I've been having that dream where I'm dying again
                    G     D               Cadd9
The one where I get sick   and we can't afford it
                   G                  D        Cadd9
I've been walking around here with no health insurance
                  G        D               Cadd9
And we can barely keep the lights on as it is
 
 
[Outro]
                      G
I've been having that dream where I'm dying again
N.C.
The one where I get sick and we can't afford it
