Intro: C, C/B, C, C/B

A Brooklyn [C/B]boy born and raised chopping lines
hey hey it’s my birthday
A toy I [C/B]torched to tar pit flames a lock jaw night
hey hey its my birthday
Dead-end friends will make your stomach shake
While your [C/B]hissing?? head
Barrels down that blackened lane
Alone at last to figure how you got this way[C/B]
Alone at last to figure how you got this way

Charcoal [C/B]clouds spot and spray they kill the sun hey hey
hear its back break
So I can never[C/B] tell night from day right from wrong hey hey
you’re my headache
A silver tongue amass your hungry hate whi[C/B]le haggard heart
Whispers through it cracking cage
Still can change you have to know you still can change[C/B]
I know I know but now I want to be this way
This [C/B]was a choice this was never a mistake
[C/B]This was never a mistake (repeat until end)

G – Intro
Trouble tracks me down
It’s been draggin me around
Since my feet first touched the ground
And I’m kickin like a kid
Cause I can’t get rid of it
And it’s never going nowhere now
I duck-dodge to my left
I slide-step to my right
But it nails me every time

And I’m finished throwin fits
Yea, I’ve learned to live with it
Marching steady, straight, and by my side
And trouble makes no seam
Just sweeps in surgical and clean
Leaves me begging on my hands and knees
And she’s always on the clock
But she doesn’t only watch
Cause she wrecks me straight into my sleep

When I drift into a dream
And I’m sailing on some sea
Shootin’ whiskey with my I rish bride
Til evening, Goodman wakes me up
I’m alone in Brooklyn broke as fk
Splitting headache and some bloodshot eyes
And I’ve known trouble all my life
And I’m sick of asking why
It’s like screaming at a set of dies
They’re gonna roll the way they roll
And man you’re never gonna know
So gettin’ crazy’s just a waste of time
Mute(xxxxxx)
I just see trouble track me down
Mute(xxxxxx)
It keeps pushin’ me around
Mute(xxxxxx) D
Til I’m deep inside the ground
And then I’ll smile in sleep
Cause in that box I’m finally free
And ain’t no trouble gonna find me now
No oh oh, ain’t no trouble gonna find me now
Ain’t no trouble gonna find me now
