Standard (EADGBE)
Smoking cigarettes in a strip mall parking lot
Theres nothing to do around here but hang out
Isnt that just like everywhere else?
Theres a war veteran standing by the interstate on-ramp
Yeah, hes asking for a ride; hes hoping for a kick down
Anything you can spare to give helps
(chorus)
And as the southwest Florida sun sets
The skys painted hues pink and orange
All directions are calling
Life is waiting to be ruined
Life is waiting to be ruined
City cops come down and they bust up the party
We go to a diner, we drink bitter black coffee
Gas station billboard reads three forty-nine a gallon
Were coming down from the high, were starting to sober up
Boys crushing on girls crushing on boys into the southwest Florida morning
We are still young
(chorus)
And as the southwest Florida sun sets
The skys painted hues pink and orange
All directions are calling
Life is waiting to be ruined
Life is waiting to be ruined
Life is waiting to be ruined
