Sad songs get you down
They get you down
They get you down
The music starts in
And you can feel your careful heart
Breaking to the usual chords
The music starts in
And you can feel your careful heart
Breaking to the usual chords

Baby your mix tape made me sad
It made me sad
It made me sad
Cue the rain
Make the studio musicians play
Any of the usual chords
Cue the rain
Make the studio musicians play
Any of the usual chords

They start out nice and all the lights are giving you their best
Before too long the saddest songs are growing in your
Growing in your chest
And it weighs me down
It weighs me down
It weighs me down
I want to go
But I'm buried by the radio
Drowning in the usual chords
I want to go
But I'm buried by the radio
Drowning in the usual chords
The music starts in
And you can feel your careful heart
Breaking to the usual chords
