Swing Life Away

[Intro]
G#m F# E
G#m  F#  E  F#


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


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


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


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


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


[Interlude]
G#m F# E F# 4x
F#


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


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


[Outro]

G#m    F#    E
Swing life away
G#m    F#    E  F#
Swing life away
G#m    F#    E     G#m  C#~
Swing life away
