               em    Gb    C             
Am I loud and clear, or am I breaking up
                em   Gb    C   
Am I still your charm, or am I just bad luck
         em          Gb     C     D11 
Are we getting closer, or are we just getting more lost
               em    Gb          C
I'll show you mine, if you show me yours first
      em             Gb         C
Let's compare scars, I'll tell you who's is worse
 em              Gb        C     D11    
Let's unwrite these pages and replace them with our own words


Chorus:

 em        cadd9     G         D
We live on front porches and swing life away
 em        cadd9     G         D
we get by just fine here on minimum wage
 em        cadd9     G         D
If love is a labour I'll slave til the end
 em        cadd9     G         D11
I won't cross thses streets til you hold my hand

continue on for the rest of the song, Verse 2 and chorus,
It's the same chords and strumming pattern all throughout.
