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