Restless Modern

Shoes

Osiris or bust
                 E
Before there was us
              B
Latin or good luck
               Amaj7
Suspicious of cuts

That tear the core up
                   E
That basement’s all love

Bright guns and young trust-

Curfew

Midwestern night

Get me a flight
                 E
Jewel runs at 2 am

That hit my heart
              B
Hooked right
                   Amaj7
We lawn-parked at barnyards

Tunneled through the snow our windows
       E
Louder memories ring of
                B
How’d I peak so low

We have mountains more to go

Amaj7
Benzos, messing up my foothold
             E
Daring me to change
                    B
I don’t wanna be so fake

My reaction
          Amaj7
Scared my friends and family rightly

Brain crawled out to choke me nightly
           E
A tough malaise
                                          Amaj7
For an only child whose brothers keep him safe


Camera pack

Document the present

Cuz the present is the past
       E
Loving living in the moment
                            B
Build a pier for me to cast off
                  Amaj7
Watchin tokyo, osaka

Michigan and yurts and vodka
                    E
Blow-up aliens, lwaxana

Claw and “real talk” love

     We grow up not out

Maybe in Chicago
                            E
But we rendezvous somewhere else

I know distance sucks
B
Bridge another gap

Glue the weekend
            Amaj7
Reaffirm my trust in you

In this I’m resolute
                         E
Maybe tougher times will come
                        B
I’ll treasure what I’ve won

Get the video proof
   B            C#m
Embarrassing ourselves
        A
With no regard
   E
No clue
            B
And we love it
Amaj7
Cringe but i wouldn’t pretend
                E
Paint myself as something I am
         B
We’re a ten out of ten
    C#m                      A
Six people in a compound den
                     E
If i make it you can live round the bend
      B
Then, I
                Amaj7
Wish you success from the start to the end

Hoping the freedom you spend with your friends
         E
I been a free boy so I can attend

What my absence might rend
