You drove me all the way up here
                                   G#m
 cause you could tell that I was a mess
                              A
 I wasn't going to make it to dinner
                             F#
 And I shouldn't be calling again...You drove me all the way back

[Verse 1]

                        E
I circled the airport a hundred times
      A                 B                 A  B
 and tried to hide the fact that I was crying
                  A
 I came in on the red eye
                        B
 That's why I look like this
                             E
 There comes a day when you rectify
 A                B                 C#m   B
 who you are with who you want to be with
     A                           B
 And I can't make the two things co-exist


[Pre-Chorus]

    A            B
 So don't let me cave in


[Chorus]

                        E
You drove me all the way up here
                                   G#m
 cause you could tell that I was a mess
                              A
 I wasn't going to make it to dinner
                             F#    A
 And I shouldn't be calling again
                          E
 You drove me all the way up here
                               G#m
 And asked if we could stay in bed
                               A
 You still got work early tomorrow
                           F#m
 and I've got a plane to catch
      E
 You drove me all the way back

[Verse 2]

                            E
I spent last night getting Mexican
             A             B                    C#m
 Outside of Logan Square basement show with Evan
  B             A
 Chicago looked desperate
                    B
 But maybe that was me
                  E          A
 I couldn't help thinking of watching
     B              C#m        B    E
 the Sears Tower collapse as a kid
            A               E
 I feel like I might do the same thing


[Pre-Chorus]

    A                      B
 So don't let it happen to me
    A                             B
 No don't, don't let it happen to me
 (Don't let it happen to me)


[Chorus]

                        E
You drove me all the way up here
                                   G#m
 cause you could tell that I was a mess
                              A
 I wasn't going to make it to dinner
                             F#    A
 And I shouldn't be calling again
                          E
 You drove me all the way up here
                               G#m
 And asked if we could stay in bed
                               A
 You still got work early tomorrow
                           F#m
 and I've got a plane to catch
      A
 You drove me all the way back


[Bridge]

F#m                A
I tried to make a life in the Midwest
E                  B
 but the rust belt keeps breaking promises
F#m               E                 E
 I can't seem to find out where my footing is
 A
 So don't (don't don't don't)
B            E
 let (don't let me cave in)
              A
 Don't let me cave in
                     B
 (don't let me cave in)


[Chorus]

                        E
You drove me all the way up here
                                   G#m
 cause you could tell that I was a mess
                              A
 I wasn't going to make it to dinner
                             F#    A
 And I shouldn't be calling again
                          E
 You drove me all the way up here
                               G#m
 And asked if we could stay in bed
                               A
 You still got work early tomorrow
                           F#m
 and I've got a plane to catch
      E
 You drove me all the way back
