[Intro]
A# F Gm
D# A# F x2
 
                A#
You swallow it down or spit it out
But either way let’s move along
         D#
I’m radioactive and in pieces
But I’m still feeling strong
       A#
I can walk away from all of this
Cars crash I just don’t care
 D#
Followers abandon me 
‘Cause papa bear was unprepared
 
   Cm
If only you could hold me
   D#
My sweet sweet Jonie
     A#                       F
I know I’d be so brave right now 
   Cm
If only you could hold me
   D#
My sweet sweet Jonie
     A#                       F
I know I’d be so brave right now 
 
A# F Gm
D# A# F x2
 
 A#
Maybe I’ll get back to you
Maybe I haven’t learned a thing
 D#
This is the last time for you
But it’s not the last time for me
  A#
I love the things you pay for 
that knock you down and make you dizzy
      D#
I got distracted along the way
shaking hands and looking busy
 
   Cm
If only you could hold me
   D#
My sweet sweet Jonie
     A#                       F

You ever think that maybe
            Gm
I could be one of those things
    D#       A#
You hate at first
         F
But eventually learn to
A#             F
love and then trust 
            Gm
and then touch and then cut
   D#         A#
I bet you will
        F
Yeah I bet you will
 
A# F Gm
D# A# F x2
 
A#
Took a lot of day trips 
'tryna get away trip
D#
Sorry I’ve got cold lips
Nothing left to say
         A#
I called double or nothing 
on everything that I had
        D#
Finally am what I am
I am a bag of bags
 
Cm
Bag of bags

That’s all I am 
       A#
Just a bag of bags
