[Intro]
G
[Verse 1]
G
I look exhausted
D/F#
Oh, stiff and awkward on the
C
Outside of the moment
G
It's not my first time bitter, drunk
On a red carpet
D/F# C
Or my first time losing, and it
C9
Won't be my last
G D/F#
You said, "Ignore it"
C
Oh, California's so much more than
Some awards show
You're no more important than an
G D/F#
Insect on a window
They'll see you climbing, but won't
C C9
Care until you get close"
[Pre-Chorus]
D
You said some people don't know why
They're wolves
G
They just howl for the sound of it
C
Some will never know they're
Beautiful
Until the crowd points it out for
Them
D
But I see you through a camera flash
G
I look back and you laugh
C
And this is hard, but I feel less
C9
Far
[Chorus]
G D/F#
This ain't Watertown, I'm on alien
Ground
Em D
I'm a collеge kid with my windows
Down
C D
I'm an astronaut, you're the Moon
Em D
I starе at you, I sing to you
C C9
I circle you
[Verse 2]
G D/F#
Rain on a steel roof, leaks
Through the ceiling
C
Hits the patrons in the ballroom
G
You said, "Oh, look, babe, even God
Is trying to warn you
D/F#
All this ain't for you"
C C9
But I cling to my seat
[Pre-Chorus]
D
I guess some people don't know why
They're wolves
G
They just howl for the sound of it
C
Some will never know they're
Beautiful
Until the crowd points it out for
Them
D
But I see you through a camera flash
G
I look back and you laugh
C
And this is hard, but I feel less
C9
Far
[Chorus]
G D/F#
This ain't Watertown, I'm on alien
Ground
Em D
I'm a college kid with my windows
Down
C D
I'm an astronaut, you're the Moon
Em D
I stare at you, I sing to you
[Post-Chorus]
G D/F#
And I clutch my cloth, and I bite my
Tongue
Em D
I'm an aging wolf who lost the taste
For blood
C D
Even anxious pups need the Moon
Em G
I howl for you, I sing to you
[Bridge]
C Em D
I circle you
C Em D
I circle you
C Em D
I circle you
[Instrumental]
G D/A C
[Final]
G D/A C
If I'm gonna lose_____ you either
Way
G D/A C
If I'm gonna lose_____ you either
Way
G D/A C
If I'm gonna lose____ you either
Way
G D/A C
If I'm gonna lose____ you either
