    F                           Gm
Do you remember drinking in the parking lot
       Dm
By the trailhead?
   F                             Gm
I see you for a moment, then the morning comes
         Dm
And it's wasted
    F                   Gm
We listen to "Only The Good Die Young"
        Dm
And we laugh about its statement
    F                                  Gm
We walk in the same direction, but we both got lost
         Dm
And you raged in my impatience

Chorus:
A#                          F
Did you find what you were looking for?
                       Dm
Some escape from your skin
                              Am
You know that place you were dreaming of
                        A#
Where all light comes in
                           F
I hope you know I grew my hair out long
                       Dm
And your sister's just fine
                   Am
I keep burning my bridges down
Just to keep you alive

A#     Dm
Woo-oo-oo
        F
Woo-oo, oo-oo-oo-oo
C
Woo

Do you remember looking from the fire
tower at the sunset?
Jack White, prophetic on my speakers,
"We Were Going To Be Friends"
Yeah, I guess I just got busy,
only saw you every other weekend
Lord, I just moved to this city,
hoping noise drowns out the regret

Chorus:
But did you find what you were looking for?
Some escape from your skin
You know that place you were dreaming of
Where all light comes in
I hope you know I grew my hair out long
And your sister's just fine
I keep burning my bridges down
Just to keep you alive

A#     Dm
Woo-oo-oo
Just to keep you alive
        F
Woo-oo, oo-oo-oo-oo
C
Woo

      Dm       C            F            A#
They tell me grief is just love letting go
     Dm           C              F             A#
They say it like milk has been spilled on the floor
     Dm               C        F      A#
They say they don't know who I am anymore
         Dm        C          F       A#
Well, I just have never shown anger before

Chorus:
Still haven't found what I'm looking for
Some escape from my sin
You know that place you been dreaming of
Where all light comes in
And I'll keep growing my hair out long
Just to cover my eyes
And I'll keep playing that goddamn song
If it keeps you alive

A#     Dm
Woo-oo-oo
If it keeps you alive
        F
Woo-oo, oo-oo-oo-oo
C
Woo
I just wanna keep you alive
