Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D]

[Verse 1]
[D]Baby hold that point
We [G]will get back to [Em]this
But there's something that I need to say
[G]Need to say it quick
Who [D]do you wanna be
[G]The candle or the [Em]light
Dyin' just for the hell of [G]it

[Interlude 1]
That ain't a life
[G][D][G][D][G]

[Verse 2]
It [D]took me too much time
To be[G]lieve in what I know
[Em]Now I'm cuttin' to the chase of it
And [G]then I'll let it go

[Verse 3]
[D]You got that rare gift
[G]To see the good in [Em]this
But I wasn't born with that
Now [G]something's gotta lift

[Verse 4]
Take a long, long [D]drive
In a slow machine
[Am]Take a long, long driv[G]e
Before they bury [Em]me
[G]And when I pick you up[D]
In my slow [Am]machine
It's a long, long [G]drive
Until we hit the sea
[Em]Rob from always on the run is
so bad and copy paste [G]is a sin
[D]I know it's getting closer
Last [G]night there was no [Em]moon
I've been seein' signs everywhere
[G]

[Verse 5]
[D]Sorry that I made a mess
If [G]your pretty train of thought
[Em]Had to get this thing off my chest
It's the [G]only thing I've got

[Interlude 2]
[G][D][Am][G]
[Em][G][D][Am]
[G][Em][G][D][G]
[D][G]

[Verse 6]
[D]We are not the chosen
[Am]We choose this for ourselves
[G]We were never really here
No one [Em]will miss us if we [G]leave

[Verse 7]
Take [D]a long, [G]long drive

[Outro 1]
[D][G][D][G]
[D][G][D][G]
[D][G][D]
[G][D][G][D]
[G][D][G][D]
[G][D][G][D][D]
