F Dm F
I'm laying down in the shower staring up at a broken light
F Dm F Bb
There's something screaming out from in my vent at night
F Dm
It's shaking the house, It's trying to get out
F
It wants to tell me another lie
Dm
What if, what if, what if, what if
F Bb
What if the magic's gone?
Am Dm F
I guess I should be glad that there was any at all
Am Dm F Bb
From 50th and Cedar to Richmond off of Front
Am Dm F Bb
I guess I should be glad that there was any at all
Dm
The city coughs me out
Bb
Like a splinter in my wrist
Dm
Getting pushed out of my skin
Bb Dm
The city coughs me out

When I was seventeen

I wrote a song about how I'm drinking kerosene

And I'll be coughing out embers for decades to come

I was seventeen with a fire in my gut
Dm
What if, what if, what if, what if

I guess I should be glad that I was still in the fight
Am Dm
It was right there waiting for me (Right there waiting for me)

I guess I should be glad that I was still in the fight

The city coughs me out

Like a splinter in my wrist
