Swing Life Away

[Intro]
Cm A# G#
Cm  A#  G#  A#


[Verse]
               Cm    
  Am I loud and clear,
       A#          G#
or am I breaking up?
                Cm     
  Am I still your charm,
       A#      D#   G#
or am I just bad luck?
    Cm         A#          
  Are we getting closer, or
     G#                A#
are we just getting more lost?


[Pre-Chorus]
              Cm      
  I'll show you mine if
     A#             G#
you show me yours first
              Cm          
  Let's compare scars, I'll
  A#        G#
tell you whose is worse
      Cm            A#         
  Let's unwrite these pages and
   G#                      A#
replace them with our own words


[Chorus]
   Cm            A#       
  We live on front porches
     G#          A#
and swing life away,
   Cm          A#    
  We get by just fine
         G#       A#
here on minimum wage
   Cm        A#          
  If love is a labor I'll
  G#              A#
slave till the end,
  Cm                A#       
  I won't cross these streets
       G#           A#
until you hold my hand


[Verse]
                  Cm      
  I've been here so long, I
            A#            G#
think that it's time to move
                Cm    
  The winter's so cold,
          A#    G#
summer's over too soon
Cm             A#        G#     
  Let's pack our bags and settle
                    A#
down where palm trees grow
               Cm      
  I've got some friends,
           A#        G#
some that I hardly know
                   Cm     
  But we've had some times,
            A#             G#
I wouldn't trade for the world
               Cm             A#     
  We chase these days down with talks
        G#              A#
of the places that we will go


[Chorus]
   Cm            A#       
  We live on front porches
     G#          A#
and swing life away,
   Cm          A#    
  We get by just fine
         G#       A#
here on minimum wage
   Cm        A#          
  If love is a labor I'll
  G#              A#
slave till the end,
  Cm                A#       
  I won't cross these streets
       G#           A#
until you hold my hand
      A#
until you hold my hand


[Interlude]
Cm A# G# A# 4x
A#


[Pre-Chorus]
              Cm      
  I'll show you mine if
     A#             G#
you show me yours first
              Cm          
  Let's compare scars, I'll
  A#        G#
tell you whose is worse
      Cm            A#         
  Let's unwrite these pages and
   G#                      A#
replace them with our own words


[Chorus]
   Cm            A#       
  We live on front porches
     G#          A#
and swing life away,
   Cm          A#    
  We get by just fine
         G#       A#
here on minimum wage
   Cm        A#          
  If love is a labor I'll
  G#              A#
slave till the end,
  Cm                A#       
  I won't cross these streets
       G#           A#
until you hold my hand
