E  G#m (B)


[Verse 1]
E                               G#m    (B)
 What's this thing aching in my head?
          E
How could something so subtle
                G#m    (B)
Hurt so fucking bad?
         E                                        G#m               (B)
And am I kidding myself if I tell myself it's the best I ever had?


[Pre-Chorus]
           E
Guess I'll open up this bottle
G#m
Drink away tomorrow
    (B)
And pick up where I'm at
                        E   G#m
I'll pick up where I'm at
(B)   E                            G#m  (B)
       I'll pick up where I'm at


[Chorus]
E                                    G#m
I've been standing in the California sun
     (B)
Faded and used
               C#m
Just like everyone you thought you knew
A
 Well I thought you knew

E
Time, it ticks away
                  G#m        (B)
Just like all our colors fade to grey
          C#m
Like everyone you thought you knew
A
 Well I thought you knew

E~

[Verse 2]
E                              G#m
So much swallowing the air is thin
(B)    E
   And you'd say I'm Apollo
                                G#m
'Cause in this hollow space I'm spacing out again
(B)   E
   So stop, don't follow
                         G#m    (B)
Stop, don't follow in my sins


[Pre-Chorus]
             E
I guess I'll open up this bottle
G#m
Drink away tomorrow
    (B)
And pick up where I'm at
                        E   G#m
I'll pick up where I'm at
(B)   E                            G#m  (B)
       I'll pick up where I'm at


[Chorus]
E                                    G#m
I've been standing in the California sun
     (B)
Faded and used
               C#m
Just like everyone you thought you knew
A
 Well I thought you knew

E
Time, it ticks away
                  G#m        (B)
Just like all our colors fade to grey
          C#m
Like everyone you thought you knew
A
 Well I thought you knew


[Bridge]
E                               G#m     B
 What's this thing aching in my head?
           E
Guess I'll open up this bottle

Drink away tomorrow
    G#m                 B
And pick up where I'm at


E                               G#m     B
 What's this thing aching in my head?
           E
Guess I'll open up this bottle

Drink away tomorrow
    G#m                 B
And pick up where I'm at


[Chorus]
E                                     G#m
 I've been standing in the California sun
       B
Faded and used
               C#m
Just like everyone you thought you knew
A
 Well I thought you knew

E
 Time, it ticks away
                  G#m         B
Just like all our colors fade to grey
          C#m
Like everyone you thought you knew
A
 Well I thought you knew


[Outro]
E                              G#m   B
What's this thing aching in my head?
           E
Guess I'll open up this bottle

Drink away tomorrow
    G#m                 B
And pick up where I'm at


E                              G#m   B
What's this thing aching in my head?
           E
Guess I'll open up this bottle

Drink away tomorrow
    G#m                 B
And pick up where I'm at
