                     C#
We wiped out all the Buffalo
                            Fm
Around the turn of the last century,
            F#
And so it's factories and sawgrass,
                                Ab
Wheat fields and asphalt laid in front of me.
                         C#
The Midwest feels like a hollow place
                             Fm
That we filled with love and industry.
          F#
And we're staring at the frozen ground in Goodwill suits,
Ab
Silent as the pastor reads the eulogy.
    C#           Ab         Bbm    Ab     F#            Ab
Well I wanted to see just a little bit of everything.

Let me be.

                    C#
Two blackbirds on a highway sign
                Fm                Fm7
Are laughing at me at four in the morning.
                         F#
They played the war drum out of time
       Ab
So I'm not sure where I've been marching.
               C#               Ab
I wanna be strong,
             Bbm                F#
But it's not easy anymore.
               C#            Ab  Bbm  F#
I'm hoping I'm wrong.

                   C#
It's sixteen hours straight to home
                        Fm
From the heart of North Missouri,
         F#
And so I searched through my great-grandpop's memoirs
                    Ab
For the devil in my bloodstream.
                       C#
Depression grabbed his throat
                               Fm
And choked the life out of him slowly.
             F#
I've got the same blood coursing through my veins
                       Ab
And it'll come for me eventually.
                       C#
I bet I'd be a fucking coward.
                         Fm
I bet I'd never have the guts for war,
       F#
'Cause I can't spend another month away from here.
      Ab
These frantic rest stop phone calls don't get answered anymore.
    C#             Ab              Bbm    Ab   F#     Ab
But I, I wanted to know if I could please come home.

So let me know.

                    C#
Two blackbirds on a highway sign
                Fm                Fm7
Are laughing at me at four in the morning.
                         F#
They played the war drum out of time
       Ab
So I'm not sure where I've been marching.

But it's not easy anymore.
               C#         Ab    Bbm   F#
I'm hoping I'm wrong.

I'm hoping I'm wrong.

C#                     Ab
I know how it feels to be
   Bbm
At war with a world
           F#
That never loved me.
