My Rollercoaster Kimya Dawson
[G]you were on my mi[C]nd at least ni[G]ne tenths of yester[D]day
i[G]t seemed as if[C] perhaps I'd gone i[G]nsane
[G]what is i[C]t about you th[G]at has commandeered [D]my brain?
[G]maybe it's your awesome [C]songs or maybe it's th[G]e way
[Em]when I look at your face I can tell that you're not going to be stopping soon or even slowing
[G]down
[Em]and if we keep up this pace pretty soon we'll know the name of every kid and every grown up
booking house shows in their [G]town
[G]and if ho[C]me is real[G]ly where the hea[D]rt is
[G]then wer'[C]re the smarte[G]st kids I know
[G]because whe[C]rever we ar[G]e in this great big[D] world
[G]we'll never be mo[C]re than a few hours[G] from home
[G]and that[C]'s important bec[G]ause I need to tr[D]avel
[G]I've had this itc[C]hin in my shoes since I wa[G]s just a little kid
[G]and before I [C]had a mini van I road[G] the Greyhound b[D]us
[G]my mom wou[C]ld say "I hope some d[G]ay you get paid for being Kimya Dawson"
[G]and now I do and it's [Am]not much
[Bm]but it's enough
[G]I've got my Scrabble game, food [C]on my plate, good friends and fam[D]ily
[G]and now there's you [C]understanding why [G]I do the things I [D]do
[G]knowing that you do[C] them too makes me really happ[D]y
[G]on the road again
just can't wait to get on the road again[Bm]
the life I love is makin' music with m[Am]y friends
and I ca[C]n't wait to get on the roa[G]d again
[G]on the road again
just can't wait to get on the road a[Bm]gain
the life I love is makin' music with m[Am]y friends
and I [C]can't wait to get on the road aga[G]in
[G]from a distanc[C]e, the world [D]looks blue and [Em]green
a[C]nd the snow ca[D]pped mountains[G] white
[G]from a distance, [C]the ocean [D]meets the str[Em]eam
and[C] the eag[D]le takes to fl[G]ight
(whispered)
G(barely even a chord thing, more like hitting the g-string)
Darkness imprisoning me
All that I see
Absolute horror
I cannot live
I cannot die
Trapped in myself
Body my holding cell
[G]do do do do do [C]do do
do do do do do do do
do do do do do do do
do do do do do do do
[G]I'll be your cryi[C]n' shoulder
[G]I'll be lov[D]e's suicide [C]
[G]I'll be do do [C]do do do do
[G]I'll be the greatest ma[D]n of your l[C]ife
[G]'cause I li[C]ke going for hikes [G]and riding b[D]ikes
[G]and playing video gam[C]es in the middle of[G] the night
[G]and I'll s[C]tay up late and [G]I wont eve[D]n care
[G]that we're gettin[C]g up early to go [G]to the state fair
[G]I'm gonna ride t[C]he biggest ride it'll[G] be out of sig[D]ht
[G]then I'll share an e[C]lephant ear with you if[G] you'd like
[G]because we ar[C]e alive so we've [G]gotta live li[D]fe
[G]to the fullest you [C]spin the bottle and I'll[G] dim the lights
(talk-sing)
four five six seven minutes in the closet
[G]you wer[C]e on my mind a[G]t least nine tenths of ye[D]sterday
[G]it seemed [C]as if perhaps I'd [G]gone insane
[G]what is it[C] about you th[G]at has commandeered my[D] brain?
[G]maybe it's your [C]awesome songs or maybe it's [G]the way
[Em]you go straight to the top you're not scared of getting squashed
you know just when to jump off
[G]you're so brave
[Em]and then you run to the right it seems there's no hope in sight
and you drop down to the tube that takes y[G]ou right to level eight
[G]life is a highway and I'm gonna r[C]ide it
[D]every day's a winding road yeah
[G]my rollercoaster's got the biggest u[C]ps and downs
[D]as long as it keeps goin' round its unbelievable
[G]life is a highway and I'm gonna[C] ride it
[D]every day's a winding road yeah
[G]my rollercoaster's got the b[C]iggest ups and downs
[D]as long as it keeps goin' round its unbelievable
