[Verse 1]
C Gadd9 Cadd4/G Gadd9 No one told the birds the world was ending
C Gadd9 Cadd4/G Gadd9 So they keep singing like it's spring
C Gadd9 Cadd4/G Gadd9 I walk with Colin after dinner
C Gadd9 Cadd4/G Gadd9We split a coke and watch the sunset Do its thing
 
 
[Verse 2]
Gm CThe church around the corner is having service on the lawn
Gm Gadd9And drawing pictures on the pavement in pastel sidewalk chalk
Gm COf doves and palms and cartoon Jesus dying on the cross
Gadd9 GmI say he must be running late and we sorta laugh it off
 
 
[Chorus]
C C Gadd9I've been having that dream where I'm dying again
C C Gadd9The one where I get sick and we can't afford it
C C Gadd9I've been walking around here with no health insurance
C C Gadd9And we can barely keep the lights on as it is
 
 
[Instrumental]
| C | C | Gadd9 | Gadd9 |
| C | C | Gadd9 | Gadd9 |
 
 
[Verse 3]
C Gadd9 Cadd4/G Gadd9 Start the truck, I named her Chelsea
C Gadd9 Cadd4/G Gadd9 I'm up and out before the sun
C Gadd9 Cadd4/G Gadd9 A pack of smokes, gas station coffee
C Gadd9 Cadd4/G Gadd9That tastes like shit and doesn't even wake me up
 
 
[Verse 4]
Gm CSome guy I knew from high school got me a job here with his dad
Gm Gadd9So now I install garage doors on the south shore while it lasts
Gm CAnd my skin looks like a minefield, the mosquitos got me bad
Gadd9 GmBut I'm happy for the work, that's where I saw Sam
 
 
[Bridge]
Gadd11 Cadd9
"I thought that you got out of here in high school
Gm GI can't believe that you came back"
Gadd11 Cadd9
You said, "We should get a drink soon
Gm GI'll catch you up on all of that"
Gm GI said, "I get paid on Fridays, meet me down at Jack's"
 
 
[Chorus]
C C Gadd9I've been having that dream where I'm dying again
C C Gadd9The one where I get sick and we can't afford it
C C Gadd9I've been walking around here with no health insurance
C C Gadd9And we can barely keep the lights on as it is
 
 
[Outro]
CI've been having that dream where I'm dying again
N.C.
The one where I get sick and we can't afford it
