D#                    Cm       A#
I'm just trying to pay an insurmountable debt

Just trying to forget about my inevitable death

Got a self-destructive instinct constructive summer complex
D#                                  Cm               A#
In the shadows of urban development I'll mark my footprints in wet cement

Like the first man on some kind of temporary moon

Before I dove in Surrey Dive

She said we might have met somewhere but that's all news to me now

Bridge:
Cm                          Gm
We used to be proud of each other
Cm                           Gm
We used to take care of each other
        Cm                                 Gm                             
I wanna make something without foundations built on bullsh*t and whatever
Fm                   Gm
The loudest person says
Fm                       Gm
Cause it's never really right
Cm                                      Gm
But the beating and the puffing up of chests
Cm                                    Gm
Has beaten every argument I've had tonight
               Fm                              Gm
Come on just punch me in the face so then at least you'll think you're right
      Fm                               Gm              
Maybe you'll leave this place, lose the war and win the fight and I'm
Fm                                                                Gm
Running scared, I'm running scared, I'm running scared, I'm running scared
                             Fm                                                      Gm
from the house that I helped build, I'm running scared, I'm running scared, I'm running scared

Chorus:
     G#  D#  A#                  D#
So why--------- don't you f**k off
G#                D#        A#   D#
Stop bringing hate into our lives
G#                    D#       A#                 D#
Cause all we ever really wanted was to feel at home
G#                D#   Cm      A#  
Was to feel at home tonight woooah
  D#             Cm             A#
