[VERSE 1]
E
I woke up in a truck stop parking lot
Esus4
A girl in a red white and blue halter top was staring
E
Thick glasses like mine
Esus4
And a low bored monotone vocal fry (I like that)
E
She said, who's the band on the bus? (What bus?)
Esus4
That one, nerd. The one that you got off of
E
Oh - probably no one you've heard of
[PRE-CHORUS 1]
C#m
Don't know what came over me
G#m
As I awkwardly dropped my room key
A
I said I think that's yours
G/A A/B Bb/C C/D
And three hours later I was banging this verse out
[CHORUS 1]
E A/E
Oh no - head meet floor
E
I don't wanna do this no more
A/E D/E
Every kiss is a jam band solo
A/E
Never gonna say YOLO no mo'
D/E
My mind says no
A/E
My body says hell no
E
Let this be over
B A A/B F#m7 E
Exhausting lover
[VERSE 2]
E
Not sure if she couldn't stop or if she wouldn't stop
Esus4
As the motel carpet gave me five more raw spots
Esus4
(What's that stabbing my back? Oh, that's a wire from her halter top)
E
There was an hour where her head kept banging against the bottom of a table top
Esus4
I saw my life in a split screen but life's just one shot
[PRE-CHORUS 2]
C#m
What the hell would I tell my girlfriend
G#m A
The thing is she's not my girlfriend anymore
G/A A/B Bb/C C/D
I traded it all for some third degree carpet burn
N.C.
(Oh, look out)
[CHORUS 2]
E A/E
Oh no - head meet floor
E
I don't wanna do this no more
A/E D/E
Every kiss is a jam band solo
A/E
Never gonna say YOLO no mo'
D/E
My mind says no
A/E
My body says hell no
E
Let this be over
B A A/B F#m7
Exhausting lover

D/E E/F# F#/G# G#/A#
[VERSE 3]
E
Then she handed me a Hot Wheels track
E
I said, girl that's pretty weird, where did you get that?
Esus4
She said never mind that
E
Here, nerd beat my ass in the bath like my dad did when I was a bad kid
E
I said, nah what's this? Let me up out of the Motel 6
Esus4
And tell me where my pants went, that's when I heard the door breaking
Esus4
It wasn't housekeeping - it was her boyfriend
[PRE-CHORUS 3]
C#m
Don't know what came over me
G#m
Out the door in my boxer briefs
A
Some dude live tweeted
G/A A/B Bb/C C/D
As I ran half-naked past a Cracker Barrel
[CHORUS 3]
E A/E
Oh no - head meet floor
E
I don't wanna do this no more
A/E D/E
Every kiss is a jam band solo
A/E
Never gonna say YOLO no mo'
D/E
My mind says no
A/E
My body says hell no
E
Let this be over
B A A/B F#m7 E
Exhausting lover
