The songs in my head they always seem to be so sentimental
C# C#dim7 D#m7 G#
And here in my heart they always echo out so clear
C# C#dim7 D#m7 G#
But when I hear them out loud, all the melodies they start to jumble
C# C#dim7 D#m7 G#
The lines I thought were the best, now seem so insincere
C# F F# D#/G
So I wasted no time, I thumbed a ride with a stranger
C# G# C# G#
And I said, Take me anywhere but here
C# C#dim7 D#m7 G(b5)
Every chord I play, sounds a bit diminished
C# C#dim7 D#m7 NC
the dissonance plagues me and the stanzas lay unfinished
C# C#dim7 D#m7 G#
Still I sing along, but the words I form lack innovation
C# C#dim7 D#m7 G#
so I’ll take the open road in search of inspiration
C# F F# D#/G
So I wasted no time, I thumbed a ride with a stranger

F#/A# F#m/A C#/G# D#/G
Some people think, they are always on the brink of something
F# F F7/D# A#m A#m/G#
Better than, what they ever had before
F# D#/G C#/G# D#/F#
Me I'm the same, You know I'm a hopeless romantic that way
F# D#/G
But, it seems that this town has been keeping me down
C#/G# D#/G
And I can’t stick around one more day
F# G# C# G#
So, I'll be on my way
