I was working on a plan

To disappear completely

Gaslighting my friends

I’d be asking for more money

Hell, I never take a day off

Headlights

Your plates, 4CB3A

we’re so grateful you are

Am G
And I hate to drag you back here
Am G F
But I think he’s really lost it
Am G
He’s been sitting on the porch
Am G F
Oh, ranting like a prophet
Am G
And I can’t stand the nights
Am G F
Yeah, that dinner time silence
Am G
I cut the tension with a knife
Am G F
And I pray you started driving
