Cb C#
Have I done my best here

Or will I be here next year

Or are these my best years yet?

Was looking forward to

Being important but
C# F#
I'm not important yet

Cb C#
If you put this scene on a movie screen
F# C# D#m
Is it called a happy end?
Cb C#
If the word gets me where I'm supposed to be
F# C# Cb
Will I know I've made it then?

Can we skip to the good part?
