[Verse 1]
F#m A
All my friends they rise for work each day,
Bm E C#7
they take the mornin' train, never running late.
F#m A
Staring at the their screens they fade away,
Bm E C#7
they take a coffee break just to stay awake.
[Pre-Chorus]
D A
Don't you know there's more to life
C#7 D C#7
than working all the time as the evenings fade.
[Chorus]
F#m A
People say we're wasting all our time,
Bm
searching for things we weren't meant to find
C#m E C#7
but that's all we have, so I don't mind.
F#m A
People say we'll lose a future sum
Bm
for living life while we are young.
C#m E C#7
Well, it's nice to say I'm the happy one.
[Verse 2]
F#m A
Father told me, son, don't make mistakes

But as I look upon his wearied face
Bm E C#7
it speaks of all the places that he never stayed.
