Your eyes are closed and the window's down But your thoughts are not in flight Bridge 1: Let the girl sleep off her pain Her thoughts collide like waves A voice is in her head This is what is says Chorus: I'm your new best friend Yeah I'm your new haircut Yeah I'm the alcohol that burns down your neck and into your gut And I was cold outside And your screams are loud And I'm trying to wrap up I find it hard to stumble to the ground Verse 2: Hey you, do you remember me? 17 lying on a bed now we're making history Did you hear the news today? I'm leaving home with a letter torn straight from an empty case Bridge 2: Let the families say good bye Such a withered night The boy will learn to talk Excitement won't hide Chorus: I'm your new best friend Yeah I'm your new haircut Yeah I'm the alcohol that burns down your neck and into your gut And I was cold outside and your screams are loud And I'm trying to wrap up I find it hard to stumble to the ground Instrumental (Chorus chords) Verse 3: Hey you, do you still think of me? 19, sitting on a beach clutching a bottle of history Are you still singing songs at night? I heard that one that you wrote for me how can false words sound pretty? Bridge 3: Let the boys sing out their pain Let the dreams just slip away Let the liars howl at night Under darkened lamp light (Sing it with me boys) Chorus: I'm your new best friend Yeah I'm your new haircut Yeah I'm the alcohol that burns down your neck and into your gut And I was cold outside and your screams are loud And I'm trying to wrap up I find it hard to stumble to the ground Enjoy ;) http://www.myspace.com/thexcerts | / slide up | \ slide down | h hammer-on | p pull-off | ~ vibrato | + harmonic | x Mute note ===============================================================================
