C# A
Ain't that the way it always starts.
E F# C# A
A simple round of conversation.
E F# C# A
Became a shameful equation.
E F# C# A
I flipped you station to station.
(Stop Muting)
C# A E F# C# A
Hey. Don't go and turn the other way.
E F# C# A
Don't say there's nothing more to say.
E F#
Come on, hear me out.
C# A
Hush, hush, settle down.
E F#
Button up, don't make a sound.
C# A
Shame, shame, go away.
E F#
Come again some other day.
(Bar and open chords sound better here)
C# A
You used to say I couldn't save you enough,
E B
so I've been saving it up, I started saving it up.
C# A
And when you said I couldn't give you enough,
E B
I started giving you up, I started giving you up.
C# F# A B
You are not me, Arlandria, Arlandria, Arlandria
C# F# A
You and what army, Arlandria, Arlandria
B C C#
Oh, God you gotta make it stop.
(Back to muted power chords)
C# A E F# C# A
Chase all of those memories away,
E F# C# A
save them all for another day.
E F# C# A E C#
Don't you remember it was rain that drowned you.
(Stop Muting)
C# A
Wait!
E F# C# A
I wanna see if you can shake.
E F# C# A
I want to keep all I can take,
E F#
I feel much better now.
C# A
Use me up, spit me out,
E F#
let me be your hand-me-down.
C# A E F#
Fame, fame, go away, come again some other day.
