Intro
N.C.
Man, if I'm gonna be honest I-
[Verse 1]
Db
Dropped out of college
Found myself a whole new realm of knowledge
Db7
Down to the forest
Foraging for sounds that I can rhyme with orange
Gb
Look, I'm a simple gatherer among a world of hunters
Gbm
Not about chasing clout
I'd rather gaze at cows and feel the comfort
(So uh oh!)
Db
On the trending tab
Hope this won't be ending bad
Db7 Gb
Checking analytics is like working in a forensic lab (oh Lord)
Life's getting hard
I'm too young for a credit card
Gbm
And I crashed the very first time I drove my parents' car
Db Db7
Teardrops, we've made friends between screens and deep seas
Steal hearts while teens scream our ears off
Gb
You might not believe it
D life full of streaming is real tough
Gbm
It feels rough sometimes but that's the real stuff
[Pre-Chorus]
Db
Day by day, putting on a brave face (Hey!)
Db7
Playing games, taking pain straight away (Yay!)
Gb
Maybe made mistakes but it's a-okay (Wait!)
Gbm
We all need to take a break
[Chorus]
Db Db7 Gb
If I'm gonna be honest, I need a little space to breathe
Gbm Db
And I'm living and loving my life by the sea
Db7 Gb
If I'm gonna be honest, I need a little bit of a breeze
Gbm
And I'm living and loving my life by the sea
[Verse 2]
Db
Just tryna keep my life afloat but never quite coping
Db7
I feel the heat beneath my collar whenever I am joking
Gb
Know most people aren't evil, though some really just wanna watch you burn
Gbm
So you're on edge and sweating
Dreading making wrong turns
Db
I'm treading on egg shells
Laying on a bed of nails
Db7
Don't you take a wrong step or else you'll get impaled
Gb
I'm just a happy guy
Paddling through the angry tide
Gbm
Online emotions amplified
I try to let it pass me by
Db
Can't keep everybody satisfied, pacified, appetites
Db7
My frazzled and distracted mind is acting like a satellite
Gb
So many transmissions
Every day I'm twitching
Wishing that things were just an itty bit different
Gbm
I know I shouldn't complain at the end of the day but it's a British tradition
[Pre-Chorus]
Db
Day by day, putting on a brave face (Hey!)
Db7
Playing games, taking pain straight away
Gb
Maybe made mistakes but it's a-okay (Wait!)
Gbm
We all need to take a break
[Chorus]
Db Db7 Gb
If I'm gonna be honest, I need a little space to breathe
Gbm
And I'm living and loving my life by the sea
Db Db7 Gb
If I'm gonna be honest, I need a little bit of a breeze
Gbm
And I'm living and loving my life by the sea
[Instrumental]
Db Db7 Gb Gbm
Db Db7 Gb Gbm
[Pre-Chorus]
Db
Day by day, putting on a brave face (Hey!)
Db7
Playing games, taking pain straight away (Yay!)
Gb
Maybe made mistakes but it's a-okay (Wait!)
Gbm
We all need to take a break
[Bridge]
Db
So I'll be chilling when the tide is low (Oh woah)
Db7
'Cause I wanna take it slow (Oh woah)
Gb
And I can't sing the next note
But I brought a bro
Gbm
(FG5 hits high note)
[Chorus]
Db Db7 Gb
If I'm gonna be honest, I need a little space to breathe
Gbm
And I'm living and loving my life by the sea
Db Db7 Gb
If I'm gonna be honest, I need a little bit of a breeze
Gbm
And I'm living and loving my life by the sea
[Outro]
