F#m7 B7     D          A         F#m7   B7
It was one hundred degrees as we sat beneath
   D      A
a willow tree
      F#m7          B7              D           A
Whose tears didn't care, they just hung in the air
       F#m7     B7       D  A
And refused to fall, to fall
F#m7 B7            D        A
I knew I'd made a horrible call
     F#m7          B7                 D      A
And now the state line felt like the Berlin Wall
          F#m7    B7                D
And there was no doubt about which side
       A F#m7 B7 D A
I was on mhmm...

F#m7     C#7         A          C#7
Cause I built you a home in my heart
     F#m7    C#7         A                B7
With rotten wood, that decayed from the start

Chorus:
           D          A         E
Cause you can't find nothin' at all
          D           A          E
if there was nothin' there all along
         D          A         E
No, you can't find nothin' at all
          D            A         E
if there was nothin' there all along

I braved treacherous streets
And kids strung out on homemade speed
And we shared a bed in which
I could not sleep at all, woo-hoo, woo-hoo, ooh
'Cause at night, the sun in retreat
Made the skyline look like crooked teeth
In the mouth of a man who was devouring us both

You're so cute when you're slurring your speech
But they're closing the bar and
they want us to leave

Chorus:
And you can't find nothing at all
If there was nothing there all along
No, you can't find nothing at all
If there was nothing there all along

B7             C#7
I'm a war, of head versus heart,
         F#m7         B7
and it's always this way
    B7               C#7
My head is weak, my heart always
         F#m7             B7       D A E
speaks before I know what it will say.

Chorus:
And you can't find nothing at all
If there was nothing there all along
No, you can't find nothing at all
If there was nothing there all along
No, you can't find nothing at all
If there was nothing there all along
There were churches, theme parks, and malls
But there was nothing there all along
