[Chorus]
 G       B7            Em
Can I embrace what I still
              G7

 C                Bm
Home's the first place you
        A7           Cm

[Verse 1]
           G
I said, I like the way
that you get lost in the moment
                  Dm7
You say, it's the only way
 that you can ever really hold it
        C
And I laugh like I always
Do it, hippie
Do it, hippie
               F7
You say you'd rather
 have the fun than be the
one makin' fun of it
             G
I say, it's    how you
speak two languages
              Dm7
You tell me, "Don't say that,
you sound so American"
       C
And I kissed you before
I let myself ruin it
       F7
But if I thought it through,
I still would've
gone through with it
                G
We both like extended
metaphors connected loosely
              Dm7
We both like fancy champagne
mixed with White Claw, truly
       C
Taste better 'cause
 they shouldn't Go together
           F7
You taste better
 'cause we shouldn't Go together

[Chorus]
 G       B7            Em
Can I embrace what I still
              G7
 can't make sense of?
 C                Bm
Home's the first place
            A7           Cm
you tried runnin' away from
      G          B7
It's hard to explain and
    Em         G7
I kinda don't want to
 C           Bm
All that to say, I can't
  A7          Cm           G
 wait to get caught up on you
      Dm7   C
(Ooh, ooh-ooh)
 F7
(Ooh, ooh)

[Verse 2]
        G
You're high and you talked
 about communism
     Dm7
I'm high and I wanna
Go down on a communist
             C
I think that my kink
is intellectualism
               F7
Foreplay with songs at
the 6/8 time rhythms
               G
Make me wanna lie about
my readin' habits
     Dm7
Care less about my social status
  C
Teach myself to comfortably
                       F7
hold onto somethin', knowin'
 I can never have it
                G
Make me wanna study
up on Psychedelia
      Dm7
Spend less time on
 my social media
  C
Teach myself to comfortably
                       F7
 hold onto somethin', knowin'
I can never keep you
