Intro

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