[Verse]
 
C                                     G
Life's too short to even care at all oh
F                                         G
I'm losing my mind losing my mind losing control
C                                              G
These fishes in the sea they're staring at me oh oh Oh oh oh oh
F                                      G
A wet world aches for a beat of a drum Oh
 
 
[Chorus]
 
           Am
If I could find a way to see this straight
    G
I'd run away
                     F              Am        G
To some fortune that I I should have found by now
                    F         Am        G
I'm waiting for this cough syrup to come down
 
 
[Verse]
 
C                                     G
Life's too short to even care at all oh
F                                           G
I'm coming up now coming up now out of the blue oh
C
These zombies in the park they're looking for my heart
G
Oh oh oh oh
F                                          G
A dark world aches for a splash of the sun oh oh
 
 
[Chorus]
 
           Am
If I could find a way to see this straight
    G
I'd run away
                     F              Am        G
To some fortune that I I should have found by now
                                               Am
And so I run now to the things they said could restore me
                 G
Restore life the way it should be
                     F        Am        G
I'm waiting for this cough syrup to come down
 
 
[Verse]
 
C                                     G
Life's too short to even care at all oh
F                                         G
I'm losing my mind losing my mind losing control

To some fortune that I I should have found by now
                                               Am
And so I run now to the things they said could restore me
