101 N Cifras

G                        Em                    C              G
And I drove all the way home listening to the Gaslight Anthem. 
                                             Em                      C                      G
And thinking how I can't stop letting people down, I'm surely not as cool as I was back in school.
                        Em                C                             G
I'm on the 101 falling asleep, I got the letters that you wrote for me.
                                  Em                  C
Now here I am under golden arches, car in park, teary eyed, Mcgriddle in hand.

G                                  Em                           C                  G
My mind's a slow device, I like to picture life somewhat like a Rockwell painting, 
                                        Em              C
but great expectations just blister the paint.
G                                             Em                   C                    G
And I just wanna drink chocolate milk with my lovely, I just wanna burn this apartment.
                                              Em                      C
And I just wanna float through my life merely dreaming at any given mention of the government.

So I drive, heavy eyed, repeating "tramps like us were born to run", but I've got no one to run with.
          C                  D                   G                             D
And I'm cold, so I've been told that I should greet the sun and get shit done.
D                               G
I think I'd rather just sleep in.
 
G                               Em            C                 G
Cause we're all just twenty five words in the obituary section.
                                    Em                  C                     G
And every day is just the passing of time, I think they call this depression.
                Em              C              G
I'm not lonely, just kind of overwhelmed again.
                                            Em       C
Cause I'm living proof you can still sing the blues in 2011.
