Tom: G
Dm Bb
Short cut to a quick buck is working all the time
Renting out your mind
And saving every dime
G
Because when ten of those combine
Bb
They cross a sacred line
G
And go from pocket change
Bb C
To a gold mine
Dm Bb
She said she'd be down to hangout
With her parents out of town she was hoping i'm around
G
For a party at her vacant place
Bb G
I said i'd come; showed up and felt out of place
Bb
So i headed home
G Bb
That's when she text my phone and ask me where
G Bb
I was and when i said i was gone
G
She broke my spine
Bb
And in that pain
G Bb
I realized that every dime i'd ever saved wasn't worth anything
Dm Am
What's the drive in being alive when you don't know who you are?
C G
What's the fun in getting drunk if you can't take it too far
Dm Am
Yeah my friends are saying i've been wasting all my weekends contemplating
G
If it's me or the booze that really gets wasted
G
I don't even taste it
G
When i'm throwing back shots as if its a race then
G
Quickly chase them
Dm Am G
Without a mouth i'm so down
F Dm Am G
My hometown only makes me feel alone
F
But just when i

Bb

C

Dm C

D Bb
Girl it's a simple matter
Dm C Bb
Put your painted finger on my tongue
C
So i can taste the lacquer
Dm C G
And relive each door that you have touched
G
And then she split my lips
Bb
and for three whole days
G
I tried to speak but everyone agreed
Bb
They couldn't hear a word i'd say
Dm Am
What's the drive in being alive when you don't know who you are?
C G
What's the fun in getting drunk if you can't take it too far
G
I'm singing oh i don't know
G
Take me anywhere but home
Dm Am G
Without a mouth i'm so down
F Dm Am G
But my hometown only makes me feel alone
F Dm Am G
Then just when i i i i think i'm in the clear she hook her hair behind her ears and says i'm
Going down
F Dm Am Bb C
She said baby it's okay to feel the way you do if you keep it to yourself
Bb G
Life is a bitch with no mouth and no lips
Dm C
But it sure ain't no fun with no teeth and no tongue
Bb G
Life is a bitch with no mouth and no lips
Dm C
But it sure ain't no fun with no teeth and no tongue
Bb G
Life is a bitch with no mouth and no lips
Bb G
Life is a bitch with no mouth and no lips
Bb G Am
Life is a bitch with no mouth and no lips
( Dm Am G G )

Without a mouth i'm so down
F Dm Am G
But my hometown only makes me feel alones
F Bb
Then just when i i i i think i'm in the clear
