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