It's good to go away for the summer, it's good to lie awake all night 
F                            G 
I got this real bad habit of setting up camp where the lightning strikes 
C                                         Am 
Why don't you sit me down in the kitchen, why don't you tell me cut my hair 
F                                          G 
Why don't you stop looking thru the mirror wearing out that far off stare

I've seen a little too much high way, I drank a little too much wine 
F                                    G 
I've kept too many deep dark secrets that sooner or later wear out my mind 
C                                Am 
I've got an unclear destination, I've been an irresponsible son 
F                              G 
I should have seen it coming I get all wound up and then I pop like a gun
