[VERSE 1]
C CM7 C6 CM7 G
Life’s too short to even care at all - whoa-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 whoa-oh oh whoa-oh oh
F G
A wet world aches for a beat of a drum - whoa-oh
[CHORUS]
Am
If I could find a way to see this straight
G
I’d run away
F
To some fortune that I-I
Am G
Should have found by now
F Am G
I'm waiting for this cough syrup to come down (come down)

C G
Life’s too short to even care at all - whoa-oh
F G
I’m coming up now, coming up now, out of the blue - oh-oh oh-oh
C G
These zombies in the park they’re looking for my heart - oh whoa-oh oh whoa-oh oh
F G
A dark world aches for a splash of the sun - whoa-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 right 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

Note: C6 chord is actually CM7Add6 but UG doesn't highlight that chord. Just leave the B string open.

Nice one good to get the hooky progression. Works quite well in D this one too
