Stolen Thieves

Capo 4

[Verse 1]
D    Em    G    D
Guess we're back to basics again
Saints come marching home alone
Just a couple of kids in a grey house
Stealing a little from life

[Chorus 1]
Am    G    D
I'm truly getting tired of lies
I'm thinking of going home

[Verse 2]
D    Em    G    D
The sun follows you here
Whether outside or on the couch
Write it in a song and say I never said it
I got skeletons I don't speak of

[Chorus 2]
Am    G    D
I feel I've waited my time here
In this black hole of a town
I'm truly growing tired of lies
I'm thinking of running home
I feel I should be home

[Break 1]
Em
But you live your life
G
the way you want
D
but I don't know if that's what I
A
need
Em
Love's a game you never
D
learn, but you play, and I
G
ride a losing streak
augA

[Verse 3]
D    Em    G    D
I talk of getting away from here
But I know where I go it follows
So I just waste all my days
Living like a stolen thief
