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