this sounds right , but let me know if anything still needs to be changed .

G D7 C
your bearings are shot and your car don’t work like she used to
Am C D7 G
your friends don’t call and they don’t even bother with offering excuses
G D7 C
the tv is on , but it’s always on , so it’s useless
Am C D7 G
it’s just the awful news and the sorry truth that we’re definitely sinking
Am C D7 G
so i wouldn’t hold my breath if i were you
Am C D7 G
you’ll just hurt your chest and your face’ll turn bright blue
Am C Am C
this is how it’s gonna be , this is how it’s gonna be
Am C D7 G
this is how it’ll be and there’s nothing that we can do
Am C D7 G
and if you start believing that i’ll stop holding my breath too

G D7 C
you’ve been praying for change but you ain’t been in church since the 10th grade
Am C D7 G
you cry at your job , don’t believe in your vote , and never celebrate your birthday
G D7 C
so you set up a dinner to make you feel less desperate , and worthless
Am C D7 G
but your dad gets drunk so your mom throws a fit while your man hits on the waitress
Am C D7 G
so i wouldn’t waste my time if i were you
Am C D7 G
you’ll just snap your spine and strip away your youth
Am C Am C
this is how it’s gonna be , this is how it’s gonna be
Am C D7 G
this is how this’ll be and there’s nothing that we can do
Am C D7 G
yeah , and if you start believing that i’ll stop wasting my time too
Am C D7 G
yeah , and if you start believing that i’ll stop wasting my time too
Am
because you’re my incentive
C D7 G
and if you go , i go too
