[Intro 1]
[C][Dm][Am]
[C][Dm][Am]
[C]

[Verse 1]
That slow burn [Dm]wait while it gets [Am]dark,
Bruising the [C]sun, I feel grown [Dm]up
with you in your [Am]car
I know it's [C]dumb

[Interlude 1]
[Dm]Oh- [Am]oh- oh- oh
[C]Oh-[Dm] oh[Am]
[C]

[Verse 2]
We've both got [Dm]a
million bad habits to [Am]kick
Not sleeping is [C]one
We're biting our [Dm]nails,
you're biting my [Am]lip
I'm biting my
[C](tongue)

[Interlude 2]
[Dm]Oh- [Am]oh- oh- oh
[C]When people are talking[Dm],
people are talking
[Am]When people are talking,
people are talking
[C]

[Chorus 1]
Raise a glass,
'cause [Dm]I'm not done saying i[Am]t
They all wanna get rough,
get away with [C]it
Let 'em talk 'cause we're
[Dm]dancing in this world a[Am]lone
We're all alone,
we're (a[C]lone)

[Verse 3]
All my fake [Dm]friends
and all of their [Am]noise
Complain about [C]work
They're studying [Dm]business,
I study the [Am]floor
And you haven't stopped
smoking [C]all night
Maybe the [Dm]Internet raised [Am]us
Or maybe people are [C]jerks
When people are talk[Dm]ing
people are talking (..not [Am]you)
When people are talking,
people are talking
[C]

[Chorus 2]
Raise a glass,
'cause [Dm]I'm not done saying i[Am]t
They all wanna get rough,
get away with [C]it
Let 'em talk 'cause we're
[Dm]dancing in this world a[Am]lone
We're all alone, we're a[C]lone
All the double-[Dm]edged
people and schemes
[Am]They make a mess
then go home and get clean
[C]You're my best friend,
and [Dm]we're dancing in a world a[Am]lone,
We're all alone, we're
(a[C]lone)

[Interlude 3]
[Dm][Am]
[C][Dm][Am]
I know we're [C]not

[Verse 4]
[Dm]everlast[Am]ing
We're a [C]train [Dm]wreck waiting [Am]to happen
One day the [C]blood [Dm]won't flow so gl[Am]adly
One day [C]we're [Dm]all get [Am]still
When people are talking, people are talking
Get [C]still

[Interlude 4]
[Dm]Oh- [Am]oh- oh- oh
[C]When people are talking[Dm],
people are talking
[Am]When people are talking,
people are talking
[C]Oh-[Dm] oh- [Am]oh- oh
[C]Oh-[Dm] oh-[Am]
[C]

[Chorus 3]
Raise a glass,
'cause [Dm]I'm not done saying i[Am]t
They all wanna get rough,
get away with [C]it
Let 'em talk 'cause we're
[Dm]dancing in this world a[Am]lone
We're all alone, we're a[C]lone
All the double-[Dm]edged
people and schemes
[Am]They make a mess
then go home and get clean
[C]You're my best friend,
and [Dm]we're dancing in a world a[Am]lone,
We're all alone, we're
(a[C]lone)

[Outro 1]
When people are talk[Dm]ing,
people are talking
[Am]When people are talking,
people are talking
[C]When people are talking[Dm],
people are talking
[Am]When people are talking,
people are talking
Let 'em talk
