          Dm                        F
It's like bedbugs in a five-star hotel
                                          C
First day, pretty face, but he's dumb as hell
              G
He's dumb as hell
           Dm                 F
It's like choking on a Lifesaver
                                  C
Like a firehouse burning to the ground
                 G
Burning to the ground

            Dm
And I keep running, running, circles, circles,
  F
tryna understand
          C                               G
Why the dreams I die for are now killing me?
            Dm
And I keep running, running, circles, circles,
  F
tryna figure out
      C                                   G
Why this life is not what I thought it'd be
Yeah

Chorus:
F                        C      G
I wanna go back to the sweet beginnings
F                      C      G
When I was young and, full of innocence
F                       C       G         F
I wanna go back to complete surrender of you
      C      G
The sweet beginnings oh
Dm        F
Ah ah ah ah
C         G
Ah ah ah ah

It's like you're allergic to your medication
Meant to make you better, but it makes you worse
It makes you worse
It's like dyin' in your own living room
Like a U-Haul following behind a hearse
We all turn to dirt

And I keep runnin', runnin' circles, circles
Tryna understand why this life is not what
I thought it'd be
Yeah, yeah

Chorus:
I wanna go back to the sweet beginnings
When I was young and full of innocence
I wanna go back to complete surrender of you
The sweet beginnings of
(Oh, huh, ha, huh, ha)
The sweet beginning of (Huh, ha, huh, ha)
The sweet beginnings of
(Boy have not ported it back)
So let go of your heart
(Boy have not ported it back)
So let go of your heart

Dm                  F
(robotic voice) to life again
C                   G
(robotic voice) to life again

I wanna go back to the sweet beginnings
When I was young and full of innocence
I wanna go back to complete surrender of you
The sweet beginnings, oh

Chorus:
I wanna go back to the sweet beginnings
When I was young and full of innocence
I wanna go back to complete surrender of you
The sweet beginnings, oh
The sweet beginnings, oh
The sweet beginnings, oh
The sweet beginnings, oh
