Standard (EADGBE)

Smoking cigarettes in a strip mall parking lot

There’s nothing to do around here but hang out

Isn’t that just like everywhere else?

There’s a war veteran standing by the interstate on-ramp

Yeah, he’s asking for a ride; he’s hoping for a kick down

Anything you can spare to give helps

(chorus)

 And as the southwest Florida sun sets

 The sky’s 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

We’re coming down from the high, we’re 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 sky’s 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
