        Gm
Look no farther than the father's
who go farther than they should
       Cm7
To the point where we're surrounded
by the scars behind their hoods
     Gm                            Cm7
and who is gonna teach them wrong from right?
who's gonna tell them it's alright?
      D               Cm7
just pass the just cigarette uh
             D                    Cm7
take these brain cells out of my head
         D
fill my lungs, drain my heart

Chorus:
             Gm                       Cm7
'Cause this smoke cloud's giving me shelter
                 F
and I feel much better
            D
and demons wave the white flags for me
          Gm                     Cm7
Still my bones keep pleading to walk out
                  F
from all of this fall out
                D
but there's no way that I could leave
            D#
so I don't leave
                        D
turn my bitterness to sweet
               Cm7          D
I gotta find a new release yeah
                 Gm
So I'm trading blues for green
                  Cm7
Da da da da da da da da yeah

Listen
See, I'm a simple man
I don't even have a phone
If I did, I wouldn't pick it up
I wanna be alone
I don't trust anyone in this one-track town
When the people walk by, watch my eyes fall down

And who is gonna teach them wrong,
is gonna teach them wrong from right? Ah, ah
Just pass the jazz cigarette
And take these brain cells out my head
Fill my lungs, drain my heart,
heart, heart, heart, heart

Chorus:
'Cause this smoke cloud's giving me shelter
And I feel much better
And demons wave the white flag for me
Still, my bones keep pleading to walk out
From all of this fallout
And there's no way that I could leave
So I don't leave
Turn my bitterness to sweet
I gotta find a new release, hey
So I'm trading blues for green
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da (da-da-da), eh
Oh-oh-oh, eh, yeah, hah, yeah, ah, wow

Just pass the jazz cigarette
And take these brain cells out of my head
Oh, fill my lungs, drain my heart

Chorus:
'Cause this smoke cloud's giving me shelter
And I feel much better
And demons wave the white flag for me
Still my bones keep pleading to walk out
From all of this fallout
But there's no way that I could leave
So I don't leave
Turn my bitterness to sweet
I gotta find a new release, yeah
So I'm trading blues for green
