Verse I -
G5 G5/E G5I am still living with your ghost
Lonely and dreaming of the west coast
G5/E D5 E5 C5I don't want to be your downtime
C5 D5 G5I don't want to be your stupid game
Verse II-
With my big black boots and an old suitcase
I do believe I'll find myself a new place
I don't want to be the bad guy
I don't want to do your sleepwalk dance anymore
I just want to see some palm trees
Go and try to shake away this disease
We can live beside the ocean
Leave the fire behind
G5 E5 D5Swim out past the breakers
D5 C5 G5Watch the world die
Verse III-
I am still dreaming of your face
Hungry and hollow for all the things you took away
I don't want to be your good time
I don't want to be your fall-back crutch anymore
Verse IV-
I'll walk right out into a brand new day
Insane and rising in my own weird way
I don't want to be the bad guy
I don't want to do your sleepwalk dance anymore
I just want to feel some sunshine
I just want to find some place to be alone
We can live beside the ocean
Leave the fire behind
Swim out past the breakers
And watch the world die
