Intro: E, C#m, E, A


Verse 1:
       E
Well I sat and thought about you
        A 
On the long ride back to Philly
          C#m                     
From the way that you'd wear your hair
                       A 
To the way that you'd laugh when you drank too much
           B                            
Before the plug was pulled, the fires burned out
              C#m            A
And all the parties grew bored
             B
You waited tables
                    A
I waited for your shift breaks


Repeat Intro


Verse 2:
    E
And gin and Casey
              A 
You'll still dance inside of me
       C#m                              A
And I bet I sound like a broken record
                        B
Every time I open my mouth
                             C#m              A
I want to wander around the city with you again
                       B
Like when you waited tables
                         A
And I waited for your shift breaks

Chorus:
        E
Me and Casey
                 C#m            A              E
We used to get drunk before we did the dishes
       A
Every evening
        E                  C#m            A             E
Me and Casey used to get high and listen to our boredom
                      A
Cause it was so much easier
                      C#m   E                    A
Cause it was so much easier than dealing with everything


     B       B     B
So Casey, Casey, Casey


Bridge:
          G#m             
Just tell me when you're ready
         C#m       A
I'm all packed to go
       B                                   C#m     A
On a search for that old place we found forever ago
      G#m              
When we could take my car
C#m                       A
Yes, she's still got the spirit
B
We could live, 
B
We could live, 
B
We could live, 
                            E
and no longer just have to hear it

Cause it was so much easier than dealing with everything
