 E           B          A              E
Four in the morning we find ourselves here
 E          B             A                 E
Best of us passed out, I don't know who's where
             E                B                A          E
I got all my old friends and new friends I've met once before
       E          B          A                 E
In a blanket of smoke as we sink through the floor

 A                  B
Here, here, my family
C#m                   E
You are my familiar, you are my familiar (Oh, oh)
 A                          B
Here, here, my friends and me
C#m                  E
You are my familiar, oh-oh

Chorus:
     C#m                             E
Oh, there is nowhere I would rather be
                 C#m
Never feel more comfortable,
             A                      E
could never want for more when I'm here
     C#m                             E
Oh, there is nowhere I would rather be
                 C#m
Never feel more comfortable,
             A                         E
could never want for more when you're near

Time skips, balloon hits, I'm losing my mind
Tuesday'll be doom day, this got out of hand

Here, here, my family
You are my familiar, you are my familiar
Here, here, my friends and me
You are my familiar

Chorus

A                                         B    C#m
I don't care if we're talking about the same things
                       E
I don't care if we're stuck in the familiar
A                                        B
I don't care if we're going round in circles
  C#m            E
Again, again, again

Here, here, my family
(Might be a walking disaster)
You are my familiar, you are my familiar
(Not much, but all I would ask for)
Here, here, my friends and me
(Might be a walking disaster)
You are my familiar
(Not much, but all I would ask for)

Chorus:
Oh, there is nowhere I would rather be
Never felt more comfortable,
could never want for more when I'm here
Oh, there is nowhere I would rather be
I never felt more comfortable,
could never want for more when you're near

Ooh, ah
Ooh, ah

I can't remember, I can't remember
I can't remember, I can't remember
I can't remember, I can't remember
I can't remember, I can't remember
Help me piece it all together, darlin'
