Swing Life Away

[Intro]
D#m C# B
D#m  C#  B  C#


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


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


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


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


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


[Interlude]
D#m C# B C# 4x
C#


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


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


[Outro]

D#m    C#    B  C#
