Intro
Verse
E
I can't help myself
N.C.
I keep ending up in Memorial Park
N.C.
Breaking fingernails while I claw at the frozen ground
E
Cause as long as I'm home
G#m F#
I can dig up these bones
E G#m F#
There's no point to just letting go
E G#m F#
And as long as you've known me I've been backing out slowly
E G#m F# B
I won't end up underneath the snow
G#m F#
Oh-oh
B
the snow
G#m F#
Oh-oh
Verse
E G#m F#
This is where it's been
E G#m
The manger scene every Christmas
F# E G#m F#
Next to the cannon
E G#m
Every year someone steals baby Jesus
F# B C#m
Nobody stops them
E B C#m E
It's a nice tradition
{Chorus
B
I'll put my life back together in silence
A E
While writing songs on Molly's guitar
B
And Suburbia, stop pushing
A E
I know what I'm doing
Verse
E G#m F#
So I moved myself
E
and two boxes of things
G#m F# E G#m F#
To the basement room at Richie's house
E G#m F#
And I'm happy here for now
E G#m F#
Because I've been in search of some steadier footing, or
E G#m F#
Just a place to call home
E G#m F#
I know that I'm introspective when broken, but
E G#m F# B G#m
I've been spending most of my nights here alone
F# B G#m F#
And that doesn't scare me like it did a year ago
{Chorus
B
I'll put my life back together in silence
A E
While writing songs on Molly's guitar
B
And Suburbia, stop pushing
A E
I know what I'm doing
B
Suburbia, stop pushing
A E
I know what I'm doing
B
Suburbia, stop pushing
A E
I know what I'm doing
Interlude
B G#m F# E F# (x2)
Bridge
B G#m F#
I had dreams of myself
E F# B
As the Allen Ginsberg of this generation
E
But without the talent, madness or vision
F#
I guess it's looking hopeless
E G#m F# E
We're a city left digging out cars in unison
G#m F# E
And humming like we've healed
G#m F#
I know we've got miles to go, but
E G#m F#
I'm putting my shoulder to the wheel
Outro
B C#m E F# (x16)
