[Verse 1]
C#m7 F#maj7
This one is faster than the one you've got
A G#
This one will save you space
C#m7 F#maj7
You better snatch them up while they are hot
A G#
Before they get replaced
[Verse 2]
C#m7 F#maj7
Can't turn your cheek to what's going on
A G#
For you might miss a beat
C#m7 F#maj7
The audience is many million strong
A G#
It's time you took your seat
[Pre-Chorus 1]
A B F#/A# C#m
It's the latest, it's in style, it's the intelligent choice
A B F#/A# B/F#
What's the use in screaming "enough" when you're the only voice?
[Verse 3]
C#m7 F#maj7
I walk around this institution of shame
A G#
Where I feel pressure to spend
C#m7 F#maj7
If I collect more than I truly need
A G#
What will it amount to in the end?
[Pre-Chorus 2]
A B F#/A# C#m
You need this, you want that, there's no better way
A B B/F#
If you can get it here from me, then why delay?
[Chorus]
C#m
Something keeps holding me back
B/F# A
Something tells me I'm on the right track
G#sus G#
But not for long
B/F#
Not for long
C#m
Something keeps making me see
B/F# A
That not everything was made for me
G#sus G#
But not for long
B/F#
Not for long
[Pre-Chorus 3]
A B F#/A# C#m
Don't be late, don't miss out on the experience
A B F#/A# B/F#
If we don't get you now we'll get you later, you've got no defense
[Chorus]
C#m
Something keeps holding me back
B/F# A
Something tells me I'm on the right track
G#sus G#
But not for long
B/F#
Not for long
C#m
Something keeps making me see
B/F# A
That not everything was made for me
G#sus G#
But not for long
B/F#
Not for long
