F                                    A#
I think my life might be better if I lived in
     F        A#
Colorado (Hmm)
F                                      A#
Sit around and get high, sippin' some white
              F             A#
wine out the bottle (Bottle)
F
I threw my phone into a lake
A#            F
And watch it sink to a better place,
             A#
down at the bottom
F                                     A#
I think my life might be better if I lived in
    F
Colorado

Chorus:
                       Dm
'Cause maybe there I'd like myself, work on
   A#
my mental
health
            F                 C
Might even feel compelled to sing karaoke
             Dm                       A#
Down at the local dive and meet some young ex-wife
               F
We'd start a brand-new life and never be lonely
Dm          A#            F
Swear to God, I am going not that far,
C            Dm
but I know I won't
A#              F   C
Yeah, I know I won't

Who am I kiddin', I'm addicted to the chip on
my shoulder (Hmm)
I like it best breakin' a sweat, so why go
somewhere that is colder
And I'll admit it would be nice to meet some
guy who's not my type and move to Boulder
But I think I'll probably hate my life if
I lived in Colorado
(I think I'll probably hate my life)

Chorus:
'Cause maybe there I'd like myself, work
on my mental health
Might even feel compelled to finally let go
But it's an empty dream, that shit's
not meant for me
I'd choose the devil I know over the heaven I don't
Swear to God, I am going not that far
But I know I won't (I know I won't)
Yeah, I know I won't (I know, I know, I know)

               Dm          A#
Yeah, I know I tell myself I'm leavin'
F            C                    Dm
This is hell, but I'll stay right here
(I'll stay right here)
A#                     F      C
Yeah, I'll stay right here

                Dm                    A#
I'll stay right here (I'll stay right here)
                 F                    C
I'll stay right here (It's all right here)
                 Dm                A#
I'll stay right here (I'm used to having)
                       F
Yeah, I'll stay right here (I'll stay right,
I'll stay right here)
I'll stay right here
