Verse
Gm Cm
Someone tipped the scales and watched the waters flood
Gm Cm
They blew out all the windows, caked the walls with mud
D Gm Cm
And everybody knows when it hits in the south
Gm D Cm
That is a land that we will learn to live without
Gm D Gm
That is a house that we have learned to live without.
[Verse 2]
Gm Cm
When ruins come in pieces with no pictures to recall
Gm Cm
When you can't find a light to break or bright the shadows on the wall
D Gm Cm
Every time that we declare this is it, I'm giving up
Gm D Cm
There comes a push, there comes a push, there comes a push
Gm D Gm
And we don't sit down, what we do is get back up.
[Bridge]
A? D Gm
It was an idea that we had and a bad idea at that
Cm D
I wanna be loved by you, I sure do...
[Chorus]
Gm
Let's learn to be alone together
Cm D
Let's cry our fucking eyes out 'cause we know no one will care for us
Gm
Let's go home alone together
Cm D
Let's fuck and let's expect it when we don't feel any better.
[Verse 3]
Gm Cm
There goes the best damn summer that we ever spent
Gm Cm
Drinking on the porch, rolling our own cigarettes
D Gm Cm
Jumping up and down in our panties on the bed, screaming,
Gm D Cm
That was the best summer that we will ever have
Gm D Gm
And we believed it, we believed it, we believed it.
[Verse 4]
Gm Cm
So won't you take me to the kitchen of your ex-wife's house?
Gm Cm
Bore me with details of all the papers you've put out
D Cm
And I can't tell when you're gonna figure out
Gm D Cm
That any line you use tonight will work
Gm D Gm
Because we're both as fucking broken as we look.
[Chorus]
Gm
Let's learn to be alone together
Cm D
Let's cry our fucking eyes out 'cause we know no one will care for us
Gm
Let's go home alone together
Cm D
Let's fuck and let's expect it when we don't feel any better.
Gm
Let's go home alone...
Gm
Let's go home alone...
