Intro
D – – – : – – G C x3
Verse 1
D – Em – G – A –
This car is a war machine that runs on nicotine and gasoline
D-d-d-don't you fucking know this is the wrong side of the road?

D A Bm G D F#m – G A
Who needs brakes when it's all downhill from here?
And if we ain't died yet then, just maybe we never will

Chorus 1
D – F – G – A# C x2
But I don't wanna burn out, so won't you please set me on fire again?
I woke up afraid of losing everything thank God that I already have
So if you love me then listen: mind your own fucking business!
If you love me enough to stay, then please love me enough to stay
enough to stay away

Post-Chorus 1
D – – – : – – G C x3
Verse 2
D – Em – G – A –
I swear on my last cigarette that I'd love you my d-d-darling. I'd love you if I could

D – Em – G – A –
But since the day I was born, it's been too late for me to be anything but what I am tonight

D A Bm G D F#m – G A
And what I am is drunk, and what I am is mean, in your passenger seat!
Seat belts are for people who have time to die
hell, I don't even have time to sleep

Chorus 2
D – F – G – A# C x2
Because I don't wanna miss a moment of loathing everything that I see
I stay up nights afraid of everything, till all that's left is the shadows and me
Ask me from sunrise to sunset: no, I ain't left the house yet
I finally love you enough to stay
enough to stay away

Bridge
D – – – F A# x3
D – – – F –
Ending
D – F# – G – A – x4
Aw, shit, I wish I had a job to quit
I wish I had a boss that I could tell to fuck off
Give me the satisfaction of a dramatic exit
And not just a long car ride and a short goodbye in a parking lot (Oh oh oh)

Outro
D – – – : – – G C
