[Verse 1]
            Am7                    D7sus2                 F C
It's been a while since I went and wrote a song like this
       Am7               D7sus2             F C
Take a good four chords, let 'em loop as is
          Am7            D7sus2
And if it still got soul then I realize
   F                C              D7sus2
It still feels good when you simplify

Am7 D7sus2 F C

                 Am7                 D7sus2               F C
'Cause I've been waiting for a while for a shot like this
     Am7             D7sus2               F C
But another near hit is another near miss
          Am7              D7sus2
And I can smell the smoke, but it's no cigar

[Pre-Chorus]
  F              C
I feel so close, yet I feel so far
        Am7          D7sus2             F      C
And I'm getting sick and tired of these false alarms, uh (Hey)

[Chorus]
Am7 D7sus2  F      C
      These false alarms
          Am7          D7sus2             F      C
Yeah, I'm getting sick and tired of these false alarms

[Verse 2]
N.C.                     (Am7)     D7sus2                 F C
It's been a while since I wеnt and wrote a song like this
          Am7         D7sus2             F C
I let thе music speak not the publicist (Ooh)
        Am7           D7sus2
And the dream is big, but the van is small

[Pre-Chorus]
   F             C
So give the keys and I'll give my heart
           Am7          D7sus2             F      C
'Cause I'm getting sick and tired of these false alarms, uh (Hey)

[Chorus]
Am7    D7sus2    F      C
       Oh, these false alarms
    Am7          D7sus2             F      C
I'm getting sick and tired of these false alarms (These false alarms)
Am7         D7sus2    F      C
      (Hey) Oh, these false alarms
          Am7          D7sus2             F C
Yeah, I'm getting sick and tired of these false alarms

[Verse 3]
Am7                 D7sus2
   Clyde and Gracie sent a song across my desk and then
F                              C
They asked if I can shine some light, they'd hold a deer like venison
Am7               D7sus2
    I'm not no Edison, my club don't got no membership
    F                    C
But I could use my penmanship to drop a couple gems and shit
Am7               D7sus2
    My fries come with some nuggets in my old age
F                            C
    Couple grains of salt, I got some Goya and some Old Bay
Am7                       D7sus2
    I wrote a couple hits on the piano in my foyer
F                   C
Labels try to holla for my bread, I tell them, "Oy vey"
Am7                              D7sus2
Make sure you keep your masters, so these assholes don't get shopping sprees
F                 C
Fame is overrated and Live Nation's a monopoly
      Am7                    D7sus2
Don't ever stress the credit if your check comes with the royalties
    F                         C
And hype is something someone needs when fans can't give you loyalty
Am7                     D7sus2
Every mistake I made is like an institute
                 F                         C
Y'all can be the two-point-oh, I'll say it in my interviews
                Am7                    D7sus2
I had to pick a single thing, the only thing I'm giving you
                     F                    C
Keep one foot in the future and the other in the living room, wow (Aah)

[Chorus]
N.C.                     (Am7)     D7sus2                              F           C
It's been a while since I went and wrote a song like this (It's been a while, it's been a while)
               Am7                  D7sus2              F C
And yeah, I've knocked a few things off my bucket list (Ooh)
          Am7       D7sus2
And I can feel my patience wearing thin
         F         C
Now it's barely up or it's barely in
        Am7          D7sus2             F      C
Now I'm getting sick and tired of these false alarms (Don't you know now)
         Am7          D7sus2             F C
Yes, I'm getting sick and tired of these false alarms (Oh) (Hey, hey)

[Outro]
Am7   D7sus2    F      C
      Oh, these false alarms (These false alarms)
         Am7              D7sus2         F      C
Yes, I'm getting sick and tired of these false alarms
            Am7     D7sus2      F      C
Na-na-na-na-na (Hey,hey), these false alarms
          Am7          D7sus2             F      C
Yeah, I'm getting sick and tired of these false alarms
