Everything I Own Fits in This Backpack
guitar chords lyrics
D
I woke up today
G
And put all my shit in boxes
Em F#m G
It's 8:00 AM, so I'm glad I wasn't out late
D
I woke up today
G
Guess it's good I hadn't finished
Em F#m G
Unpacking all of this in the first place
D D Bm A
D D Em G
D
Suburbs have abandoned me
G
I've had the same best friend since '93
Em F#m
I call, he's not answering, no
G
I can't get comfortable on my own street
D
I'm not fond of south Philly
G
Or how my neighbors love ICP
Em F#m
I guess it's better than Bancroft street
G
At least the fridge here works and the walls don't leak, at least
D
I'm starting to see
What's left for me
I'm starting to
D Bm A
D Em G
We've moved on again so I packed my shit and left home
D Bm A
It's alright to think I still belong to something
D
I don't
F#m G
Guess I can see why you'd think so
G A
D G
Nothing made me feel further away
Than "Left and Leaving" through a blown car stereo
Em F#m G
Nothing made me feel closer to home
Than "Ready To Die" through my headphones
D G
So we reached the coast, but where do we sleep tonight?
Damned if I know
Em F#m
We'll try to stay at the airport
G
They can't send us home and we've got no place to go
Chorus
G A
Guess I can see why you'd think so
G A
G
Don't say it's up to me.
A
Don't say it's up to me
Bm
Don't say it's up to me
A
Don't say
G A
So the creaks in the floor boards are calling out to me
Bm
A
I'm laying here again with my head on my backpack, wrapped in my hoodie
This is how it is when
Chorus
D
I stacked Lonelier Than God
G
Next to You Get So Alone Sometimes
Em F#m G
I know how this must look from the outside
D
It took almost 13 months
G
For me to be where I feel fine
Em F#m G
I'm not as sad as I'll let myself believe sometimes
