Intro
D# G# Gm Fm A#
A# Gm Cm G# A#
[Verse]
D# G#
I was backed against the traps of my teenage plan
Gm Fm A#
I was stumbling over gaps and feeling beat up again
G# Gm Cm
I was staring down the corpse of a lifelong dream
A# G# A#
But I was willing it to get back on its feet again
[Verse]
D# G#
I was walking through my life and feeling sick, that’s when
Gm Fm A#
I would find myself repeating my old stories to friends
G# Gm Cm
Always searching for a notion that resembled a hope
A# G# A#
That I was standing on the verge of something good, I don’t know
On the verge of something
[Chorus]
D# Fm
Oh oh ohoh oh
G#
Ohhhh
D# Fm
Oh oh ohoh oh
G# A#
Oh oh ohoh oh
[Bridge]
D# Fm
From the traps of my teenage plan
G# A#
I was wearing out my feet again
D# Fm
Working nights for some old businessman
G# A#
Who couldn’t give a second shit about me (I was grasping at a hope)
D# Fm
I’d take a hope and a borrowed sedan (I couldn’t take it any more)
G# A#
And I’d ride out to the state that’s when (Spending hours on the phone with the pharmacy)
Cm Fm
I’d be pulling up to some suburban pharmacy
G# A#
And I’d be begging them to tell me something
[Verse]
D# G#
I was closing out the bar every night and then
Gm Fm A#
I was waking up each morning around 6am
G# Gm Cm
I was driving to the doctor and then back again
A# G# A#
You know, they never seemed to have any good news to me then
[Verse]
D# G#
I was walking through my life and feeling sick that’s when
Gm Fm A#
I started plotting out a course to getting free again
Gm Cm
While making pennies for some psychopath businessman
A# G# A#
I started thinking that I might be on the verge of something
On the verge of something
[Chorus]
D# Fm
Oh oh ohoh oh
G#
Ohh ohoh ohhh
D# Fm
Oh oh ohoh oh
G#
Ohh ohoh ohhh
D# Fm
Oh oh ohoh oh
G# A#
Oh oh ohoh oh
Cm Fm
Oh oh ohoh oh
G#
Oh ohoh ohhh
