[Intro]
G# D# C# G# 2x
[Verse]
G#
I took a pill in Ibiza
D#
To show Avicii I was cool
C#
And when I finally got sober, felt 10 years older
G#
But fuck it, it was something to do
[Verse]
G#
I'm living out in LA
D#
I drive a sports car just to prove
C#
I'm a real big baller cause I made a million dollar
G#
And I spend it on girls and shoes
[Chorus]
Fm
But you don't wanna be high like me
D#
Never really knowing why like me
C#
You don't ever wanna step off
G#
that roller coaster and be all alone
Fm
You don't wanna ride the bus like this
D#
Never knowing who to trust like this
C#
You don't wanna be stuck up on that stage singing
Stuck up on that stage singing
G# D# C# G#
All I know are sad songs, sad songs
G# D# C# G#
Darling, all I know are sad songs, sad songs
[Verse]
G# D#
I'm just a singer who already blew his shot
C#
I get along with old timers
G#
Cause my name's a reminder of a pop song people forgot
G#
And I can't keep a girl, no
D#
Cause as soon as the sun comes up
C#
I cut em all loose and work's my excuse
G#
But the truth is I can't open up
[Chorus]
Fm
But you don't wanna be high like me
D#
Never really knowing why like me
C#
You don't ever wanna step off
G#
that roller coaster and be all alone
Fm
You don't wanna ride the bus like this
D#
Never knowing who to trust like this
C#
You don't wanna be stuck up on that stage singing
Stuck up on that stage singing
G# D# C# G#
All I know are sad songs, sad songs
G# D# C# G#
Darling, all I know are sad songs, sad songs
[Solo]
G# D# C# C#
[Verse]
G#
I took a plane to my home town
D#
I brought my pride and my guitar
C#
All my friends are all gone but there's manicured lawns
G#
And the people still think I'm a star
I walked around downtown
D#
I met some fans in Lafayette
C#
They said tell us how to make it
cause we're getting real impatient
G#
So I looked em in the eye and said
[Chorus]
Fm
But you don't wanna be high like me
D#
Never really knowing why like me
C#
You don't ever wanna step off
G#
that roller coaster and be all alone
Fm
You don't wanna ride the bus like this
D#
Never knowing who to trust like this
C#
You don't wanna be stuck up on that stage singing
Stuck up on that stage singing
G# D# C# G#
All I know are sad songs, sad songs
G# D# C# G#~
Darling, all I know are sad songs, sad songs
