[Verse 1]
D
Summer went away, still the yearning stays
F#m G
I play it cool with the best of them
D
I wait patiently, he's gonna notice me
F#m G F#m G
It's okay, we're the best of friends anyway
D
I hear it in your voice, you're smoking with your boys
F#m G D
I touch my phone as if it's your face
I didn't choose this town, I dream of getting out
F#m G D F#m
There's just one who could make me stay all my days
[Pre-Chorus]
G A D
From sprinkler splashes to fireplace ashes
Bm G
I waited ages to see you there
A D
I search the party of better bodies
Bm G
Just to learn that you never cared
[Chorus]
A
You're on your own, kid
D
You always have been
[Verse 2]
D
I see the great escape, so long Daisy Mae
F#m D
I picked the petals, he loves me not
F#m
Something different bloomed, writing in my room
G D A
I play my songs in the parking lot, I'll run away
[Pre-Chorus]
G A D
From sprinkler splashes to fireplace ashes
Bm G
I called a taxi to take me there
A D
I search the party of better bodies
G
Just to learn that my dreams aren't rare
[Chorus]
A
You're on your own, kid
You always have been
[Instrumental Break]
G A D Bm
G A D Bm
G A
[Bridge]
G A D
From sprinkler splashes to fireplace ashes
Bm G
I gave my blood, sweat, and tears for this
A D
I hosted parties and starved my body
Bm G
Like I'd be saved by a perfect kiss
A D
The jokes weren't funny, I took the money
Bm G
My friends from home don't know what to say
A D
I looked around in a blood-soaked gown
Bm G
And I saw something they can't take away
A D
'Cause there were pages turned with the bridges burned
Bm G
Everything you lose is a step you take
A D
So make the friendship bracelets, take the moment and taste it
Bm G
You've got no reason to be afraid
[Chorus]
A G
You're on your own, kid (Ah)
A G
Yeah, you can face this (Ah)
You're on your Aown, kid
D
You always have been
Summer went away
Still the yearning stays
I play it cool with the best of them
I wait patiently
He's gonna notice me
It's okay, we're the best of friends
Anyway
I hear it in your voice
You're smoking with your boys
I touch my phone as if it's your face
I didn't choose this town
I dream of getting out
There's just one who could make me stay
All my days
From sprinkler splashes to fireplace ashes
I waited ages to see you there
I search the party of better bodies
Just to learn that you never cared
You're on your own, kid
You always have been
I see the great escape
So long, Daisy May
I picked the petals, he loves me not
Something different bloomed
Writing in my room
I play my songs in the parking lot
I'll run away
From sprinkler splashes to fireplace ashes
I called a taxi to take me there
I search the party of better bodies
Just to learn that my dreams aren't rare
You're on your own, kid
You always have been
From sprinkler splashes to fireplace ashes
I gave my blood, sweat, and tears for this
I hosted parties and starved my body
Like I'd be saved by a perfect kiss
The jokes weren't funny, I took the money
My friends from home don't know what to say
I looked around in a blood-soaked gown
And I saw something they can't take away
'Cause there were pages turned with the bridges burned
Everything you lose is a step you take
So make the friendship bracelets, take the moment and taste it
You've got no reason to be afraid
You're on your own, kid
Yeah, you can face this
You're on your own, kid
You always have been
