[Verse 1]
A Bm D/F#
Innocence isn’t,
G A Bm D/F# G D/F# G D/F#
A “get out of jail free” card in the eyes of God, did you see me?
G A Bm D/F# G A Bm D/F# G
Losing my shit on the sidewalk and covered in stranger’s eyes.
A Bm D/F# G
Ready for anything, ready or not,
D/F# G D/F#
It’s a silence,
G A Bm D/F# G A Bm D/F#
That whittles away my pride and you’re asking me why do I feel it,
G A Bm D/F# G A Bm D/F# G
Like it’s a guy with a cigarette that tells you to lie face down.

A Bm D/F# G
Ready for anything, ready or not,
A Bm D/F# G A Bm D/F# G*
How long I’ve waited for your lightning sound

[Verse 2]
A Bm D/F#
And you call me,
G A Bm
Letting me waste your time,
D/F# G A Bm D/F#
Still you’re asking me why do I feel it,
G A Bm D/F# G A Bm D/F# G
Like it’s a guy with a cigarette that tells you to lie face down.

[Chorus]
A Bm D/F# G
Ready for anything, ready or not,
A Bm D/F# G A Bm D/F# G*
How long I’ve waited for your lightning sound.

We’re not rich but we’re not broke,
