[Intro]
Dsus4
[Verse 1]
D Dsus2 G
Did I fog the lens
D
With crying eyes?
Asus4
Did I get undressed
Bm7
To drop the disguise?
G
Trade common sin
D
For common sense
Asus4
A life undone
Bm7
In heaps of regret
G
Baby bird
D
My cult of one
Asus4
You're getting thin
Bm7
My prodigal son
G
So I count my stones
D
Before they're laid
Asus4 Bm7
Like the architects of ancient Pompeii
[Chorus]
G D
I know too much it's freaking me out
A
But there's gold under the rust
Bm7
Figuring out just how to live
G D
I'm so afraid you're finding me out
A
But there's something in the rough
Bm7
Figuring out just how to live
[Post-Chorus]
G
I made a little money but it's never enough
D
She'll tell me that she want me but it's still ain't enough
A
My neighbors gettin' naughty and it's keeping me up
Bm7
There's no god above me and it's fuckin' me up
G
She came into the lobby, eyes lookin' for love
D
She don't know that I've had another honey for months
A
And I'm a man with a thimble fighting a flood
Bm7
Still figuring out how to live
[Verse 2]
G
Monday comes
D
I'm ashamed
Asus4
From throwing crumbs
Bm7
At the funeral parade
G
I can't sleep
D
I'm losing face
Asus4
I'm so much older
Bm7
Than my age
G
I can't sleep
D
Waste my days
Asus4 Bm7
I'm so much older than I can take, oh
[Chorus]
G D
I know too much it's freaking me out
A
But there's gold under the rust
Bm7
Figuring out just how to live
G D
I'm so afraid you're finding me out
A
But there's something in the rough
Bm7
Figuring out just how to live
[Post-Chorus]
G
I made a little money but it's never enough

She'll tell me that she want me but it's still ain't enough

And I'm a man with a thimble fighting a flood

Still figuring out how to live
G D A Bm7
G D A Bm7
[Bridge]
G
And I always play the victim
D
Though I'll tell myself I don't
A
Mister casual and flippant
Bm7
He's ashamed to be alone
G
And I'm no stranger to the distance
D
But I'm missing her bad
A
And I'm up at night and wishing
Bm7
It could be simple as that
[Chorus]
G D
I know too much it's freaking me out
A
But there's gold under the rust
Bm7
Figuring out just how to live
G D
I'm so afraid you're finding me out
A
But there's something in the rough
Bm7
Figuring out just how to live
Did I fog the lens

Oh, I know too much it's freaking me out
But there's gold under the rust
Figuring out just how to live
I'm so afraid you're finding me out
But there's something in the rough

But there's something in the rough
Figuring out just how to live
