Intro 
D  D/F# G     (x6) 
 
verse 1 
         D                    D 
I always feel a little bit dyslexic 
              D                      D 
When I read a note pass through your hands 
                D                       D 
And I'm kind of winging it through each sentence 
                 D             D 
Hoping that I'll make you understand 
          D 
That it's bigging me to call 
          D                 D      D 
After you shut me down last night 
             D             D 
Yeah, you're lucky we even talk 
           D     D 
After last night 
 
Pre-Chorus 1 
              D 
I was sitting way too close to the TV 
              D                     D/F#   G 
Hoping that America will pull me in 
                           D                     D 
And I don't think that I'm making you incredibly happy 
                         D                      D/F#   G 
For once I just wish the world would let me win 
 
             D                     D 
'Cause we're all trying to grow up safely 
               D                      D 
Even though we act like we just don't care 
                    D                    D 
And there's nothing stopping us all from dying 
                        D                       D 
Can we at least try and look like we're playing fair? 
             D                     D 
And you're a little overweight for TV 
                 D                    D 
But I think your heart's in the right place 
                    D            D 
And I don't want to be your only witness 
               D                  D 
When the world dies and your body breaks 
 
Post-Chorus 
D      D                        D 
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, first rule of lovesick 
D      D                       D 
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, don't cry in public 
 
verse 2 
         D                  D 
I always calling our family doctor 
                          D               D 
'Cause I'm sure I've only got two days to live 
                    D                        D 
If I knew you would drop everything and come over 
                    D               D 
Those two days with you I'd like to live 
 
Pre-Chorus 2 
                      D                     D 
Even know I'm still a little overweight for TV 
                 D                      D/F#   G 
I'm pretty sure America will pull me in 
                     D                     D 
I'm a sucker for the lights and the pretty pictures 
            D                     D/F#   G 
One day the world will let me win
