[Intro]
 
N.C.
 
 
[Verse]
 
                C
My life's these yellow lines, 

Concrete, and parliament butts
  C
Exhaust fumes and rest stops 

Who drive hard for their bucks
     Am                                   
Load in, sound check, 

Play show, load out, 
      D
Let's go, next city, 

Oh great, off day
    C
Hangovers, hangups, dial backs, 

Running make up, apologies and promises
                            
And nobody acknowledges that 
Am
Boys in bands got it so damn bad
       D
But we love like the 

Last cigarette we'll ever have
C                             
I'm putting miles on my body; 
                D
'Bout due for a tune up 

In this gas station
                              
Food ain't really helping, but 
Bm
I'm loving every minute
                      C
Every road sign's a reminder of 

Exactly why we did it to begin with
 
 
[Chorus]
 
G
This is how it has to be
  Em
A kiss for luck, submerge myself
       D
And in seven weeks resurface
G         D
Even if we don't look back again
G
Tired boys and wired eyes
  Em
Exposing imperfections
       D
To the public eye we're perfect
G          D
Even if we don't look back again
 
 
[Verse]
 
             C
I like these hotels, pa*sports, 

Random bag checks
    C
Day dreams of love affairs that

 I haven't had yet
      Am
Touch down, baggage claim, 

New town, different dame
     D
Same clothes, seven days, 

Whew; damn, I need to change
C
And it's a lifestyle that 

I wouldn't recommend
C
Wildin' out on a level Nic 

Cannon couldn't comprehend

 (f*ck outta here)
Am
We made a lot of friends and 

Even more enemies
D
Some of which were genuine and 

Others just pretend to be
C
Soft raving baby, life's lovely
D
Even when the gray 

Rain cloud's right above me
Bm
The girl's textin' me, 

Talkin' about gettin' all cuddly
           C
'Cause you paint a pretty picture, 

But the frame is so ugly
 
 
[Chorus]
 
G
This is how it has to be
  Em
A kiss for luck, submerge myself
       D
And in seven weeks resurface
G         D
Even if we don't look back again
G
Tired boys and wired eyes
  Em
Exposing imperfections
       D
To the public eye we're perfect
G          D                G    Em D G D
Even if we don't look back again
 
 
[Verse]
 
             C
And now it's back in a van with 

Four of my mans
C
Until we catchin' a tan on the

 Florida sands
Am
I feel like tourin' this 

Land's made me more of a man
     D
From killa California to the 

Shores of Japan
C
Good times stayin' up late in Austin
C
Coast to coast V8 to Chicago
   Am
To gettin' up with 

Johnny Cupcakes in Boston
    D
And smokin' that most 

Great eight in Colorado
C
Home ain't home no more
                           
I hug the road and kiss the
 D
 Concrete, and sometimes 

I even hear her heartbeat
Bm
No matter where we go or where we at
         C
We carry upstate on our back; 

It's like that
 
 
[Chorus]

 
G
This is how it has to be
  Em
A kiss for luck, submerge myself
       D
And in seven weeks resurface
G         D
Even if we don't look back again
G
Tired boys and wired eyes
  Em
Exposing imperfections
       D
To the public eye we're perfect
G          D
Even if we don't look back again
 
 
G
This is how it has to be
  Em
A kiss for luck, submerge myself
       D
And in seven weeks resurface
G         D
Even if we don't look back again
G
Tired boys and wired eyes
  Em
Exposing imperfections
       D
To the public eye we're perfect
G          D                G
Even if we don't look back again
 
Em                            
So a lot of you don't realize 
                    D
There's a whole subculture of 

Boys driving around in vans.'
G          D                G
Even if we don't look back again
Em                                
Looking for your daughters, and 
                    D
Your lottery tickets. 

Love it or leave it; 

I'm like this.'
G          D                G
Even if we don't look back again
                Em             D
I love my life, b*tches
G          D                G    Em D
Even if we don't look back again
G          D                G    Em D
Even if we don't look back again
