You’re On Your Own, Kid

[C]Summer went away Still the yearning stays [Em]I play it cool with the [F]best of them

[C]I wait patiently He’s gonna notice me [Em]It’s ok, we’re the [F]best of friends

[F]Anyway [C]I hear it in your voice You’re smoking with your boys

[Em]I touch my [F]phone as if it’s your [C]face I didn’t choose this town I dream of getting out

[Em]There’s just [F]one who could make me [C]stay All my days

 

[F]From sprinkler [G]splashes To fireplace [C]ashes I waited [Am]ages to see you [F]there

I search the [G]party Of better [C]bodies Just to [Am]learn that you never [F]cared

You’re on your own, [G]kid you always have [C]been

 

[C]I see the great escape so long, Daisy May [Em]I picked the petals, he l[F]oves me not

[C]Something different bloomed writing in my room [Em]I play my songs [F]in the parking lot

[G]...I’ll [F]run away

 

[F]From sprinkler [G]splashes To fireplace [C]ashes I waited [Am]ages to see you [F]there

I search the [G]party Of better [C]bodies Just to [Am]learn that you never [F]cared

You’re on your own, [G]kid you always have [C]been [F] [G] [C] [Am] [F] [G] [C]

 

[F]From sprinkler s[G]plashes To fireplace [C]ashes

I gave my [Am]blood, sweat and tears for[F] this

I hosted [G]parties and starved my [C]body Like I’d be saved by a perfect [F]kiss

The jokes weren’t [G]funny I took the [C]money

My friends from [Am]home don’t know what to [F]say

I looked a[G]round in a blood-soaked [C]gown

And I saw something they can’t take a[F]way

Cause there were pages [G]turned with the

bridges [C]burned

Everything you [Am]lose is a step you [F]take

So make the friendship [G]bracelets take the moment and [C]taste it

You’ve got no reason to be a[F]fraid

You’re on your [G]own, kid [F]...Yeah, you can [G]face this [F]

You’re on your [G]own, kid tou always have [C]been
