Verse
E N.C.
I'm sitting in the parking lot
E G
For the second time today, i'm
Thinking if i run away
D
I'll change my name
N.C.
To one that feels like mine
E
We listen to the same four songs
This town is closing in on me
G
Sometimes i forget to breathe
D
Not sure if its subconsciously, oh
[Pre-chorus]
E
And you like to say that you got it figured out
G
But i don't know
C#
No, i don't know
A
Where the hell i'm gonna go
E
And i'm aware
That you found a place to hide
G
But i don't know
C#
No, i don't know how to make it out alive
[Chorus 1]
N.C.
And oh, oh
N.C.
August is a fever
N.C.
'cause we're too hot and cold and homesick all the time
E
And oh, oh
G
I don't wanna leave ya
N.C.
So i'll pack my things and leave myself behind
E
[Verse 2]
E
There's always too much time to kill
G
I never pull the trigger like i plan
We wait until the moon is high
D
Then cross that line
Electric while we can
E N.C.
You like to fill your lungs with smoke
E D
I feel like i'm just stuck between your teeth
Poison spilling down my throat
C# A
But new york's underwater in a week
[Pre-chorus]

And you like to say that you got it figured out
G
But i don't know

Where the hell i'm gonna go
