Lyrics
NEW VACCINE: key of Bb
VERSE 1
I vi
If I look out the window
Vsus4 IV
I see you're not far behind me
I vi
I can still see your shadow
Vsus4 IV
Ya the spotlight is blinding
But I'm developing a new disease
Ya it's kind of like hunger
My head is heavy and my knees get weak
When I get around her
PreChorus
IV I vi V
It's a long long road, if I go at it alone
IV I V
It's a drawn out tow from here
When she's by my side
I find, it gets easier
I can walk, or run, and crawl
CHORUS
IV
You were not enough,
I V
I couldn't go on like that forever.
IV
I was not enough
I V
we couldn't go on like that together.
IV
But she is just as tough
vi V
as it was on us,
I IV V
So we just might be so much better.
Than we ever were
IV I vi 5
IV I V
Alt Pre-Chorus
IV I
Cause I'm not alone, this love
vi II(C7)
Can carry half the burden
IV I V
She can lighten up the load.
Ya you had my number
You understood how to make me tick
I would run through the yellows
the traffic camera would take my picture.
But I'm developing a new vaccine
Ya she's kind of like sugar
I know it tastes so bittersweet
But I think it's for better.
