101 N Walter Mitty and His Makeshift Orchestra
And I drove all [G]the way home listening t[Em]o the Gaslight Anthem.[C]
[G]And thinking how I can't stop letting people [Em]down, I'm surely not as [C]cool as I was back in s[G]chool.
[G]I'm on the 101 falling as[Em]leep, I got the [C]letters that you wrote for me.
[G]Now here I am under golden arches[Em], car in park, teary [C]eyed, Mcgriddle in hand.
G C Em D x2
My mind's a [G]slow device, I like to [Em]picture life somewhat like a [C]Rockwell painting,
[G]but great expectations just blister the [Em]paint. [C]
[G]And I just wanna drink chocolate milk with my [Em]lovely, I just wanna [C]burn this apartment.
[G]And I just wanna float through my life merely [Em]dreaming at any given [C]mention of the government.
G C Em D x2
So I [C]drive, heavy [D]eyed, repeating "[G]tramps like [Gmaj7]us were [G7]born to [G6]run", [C]but I've got [D]no one to run [G]with.
And I'm [C]cold, so I've been [D]told that I should [G]greet the [Gmaj]sun and [G7]get sh*t [G6]done.
[C]I think I'd [D]rather just sleep [G]in.
[G]Cause we're all just twenty five [Em]words in the [C]obituary section.
[G]And everyday is just the passing of [Em]time, I think they [C]call this depression.
[G]I'm not lonely,[Em] just kinda [C]overwhelmed ag[G]ain.
[G]Cause I'm living proof you can still sing the [Em]blues in [C]2011. [G]
