[Verse]
E*               F#m*               C#m*
  That slow burn wait while it gets dark
             E*
Bruising the sun
             F#m*                C#m*
I feel grown up with you in your car
            
I know it's du

mb

      
Ooooooooooooh

 We've both go

ck
              
 Not sleeping

We're biting o

 tongue

       
Ooooooooooooh

[Chorus]
             
 Raise a glass

       E*
We're alone


[Verse]
            F#m*                     C#m*
All my fake friends and all of their noise
               E*
Complain about work
                 F#m*                  C#m*
They're studying business, I study the floor
        F#m*                        E*
And you haven't stopped smoking all night
          F#m*            C#m*
Maybe the Internet raised us
              
Or maybe peopl

             
e are jerks (P

              
eople are talk

e talking)
           
But not you (P

              
eople are talk

     
ing, people ar

e talking)

World alone
       
We're alone
              
All the double

       
-edged people 

and schemes
           
   They make a

              
 mess, then go

 
 home and get 

clean
             
You're my best

              
 friend and we

We're all alone

E* F#m* C#m*


[Bridge]
             E* F#m*   C#m*
I know we're no-ot everlasting
        E*      F#m*           C#m*
We're a train wreck waiting to happen
            E* F#m*            C#m*
One day the blood won't flow so gladly
        E*    F#m*    C#m*
One day we'll all get still (People are talking, people are talking)
    E*
Get still

   F#m* C#m*   E*  F#m* C#m*
Ooooooooooooooooh oooooooooh
   E* F#m* C#m*   E*  F#m* C#m*   
Oooooooooooooooooooh oooooooooh
