[Verse 1]

D              Bm                    F#m
Kelly says that at the end of each relationship
                        G
The boy starts quoting lyrics from that Movielife song
D              Bm                              F#m
And my mom says there's no songs with her name in them
                      G
Except one about a crackhead in Janie's Got a Gun

[Verse 2]

D              Bm                        F#m
Well Matt says, when I mentioned him in Bar Bands
                       G
Kids started asking questions - it got weird
           D                       Bm
Kinda quick, and I had a dream that
                           F#m                 G
We named a kid we never had after Hannah Hold On
                             F#m  G
And I haven't listened since
                        F#m   G  A
'Cause it tears me to pieces

[Chorus]

D                       G            D
Someone keeps putting on all of the sad songs
                 G
I keep singing along
     Bm                     A
The jukebox turns and I'm gone
                    F#m
I poked in all my quarters
                 G       A                 D      Bm A  A B5 G5
Looking for the perfect swan song to walk out on

[Verse 3]

D               Bm                      F#m
Stevie said that if I woke up feeling hopeless
                                 G
That I should think about it different, that I had it all wrong
D                 Bm                    F#m
It's not the end if you call it a new beginning
                        G                              F#m
Plus, it's a chance to write some bitter fucking love songs
                             G                              F#m
I heard Quentin belt the notes to some words that Alex wrote
              G
About dying alone
        A               Bm
And I felt sort of whole

[Verse 4]

Bm                              A                 G
It takes a fucked up head to think about dying alone
                         F#m
When you're in you're twenties
                           Bm
So I'm glad it's not just me
Bm                             F#m                G      A
It takes a fucked up head to think about dying alone already

[Chorus]

D                       G            D
Someone keeps putting on all of the sad songs
                 G
I keep singing along
     Bm                     A
The jukebox turns and I'm gone
                    F#m
I poked in all my quarters
                 G       A                 D      Bm A  A B5 G5
Looking for the perfect swan song to walk out on

[Interlude]

D Bm A A B5 G5

[Bridge]

D Bm A A B5 G5                 D Bm A
Someeeeoneeeeee keeps putting on
A B5 G5
the sad songs
D Bm A A B5 G5                 D Bm A
Someeeeoneeeeee keeps putting on
A B5 G5      A
the sad songs
D              G               D      G
Someeeeeoneeeee keeps putting on the sad songs

[Chorus]

D                     G              D
Someone keeps putting on all of the sad songs
                 G
I keep singing along
     Bm                    A
The jukebox turns and I'm gone
                   F#m
I poked in all my quarters
                 G       A                 D
Looking for the perfect swan song to walk out on
