The songs in my head they always seem to be so sentimental
A C#dim7 Bm7 E
And here in my heart they always echo out so clear
A C#dim7 Bm7 E
But when I hear them out loud, all the melodies they start to jumble
A C#dim7 Bm7 E
The lines I thought were the best, now seem so insincere
A C# D B/D#
So I wasted no time, I thumbed a ride with a stranger
A E A E
And I said, Take me anywhere but here
A C#dim7 Bm7 G(b5)
Every chord I play, sounds a bit diminished
A C#dim7 Bm7 NC
the dissonance plagues me and the stanzas lay unfinished
A C#dim7 Bm7 E
Still I sing along, but the words I form lack innovation
A C#dim7 Bm7 E
so I’ll take the open road in search of inspiration
A C# D B/D#
So I wasted no time, I thumbed a ride with a stranger
A E A A7

D B/D# A/E B/D
Me I'm the same, You know I'm a hopeless romantic that way
D B/D#
But, it seems that this town has been keeping me down
A/E B/D#
And I can’t stick around one more day
D E A E
So, I'll be on my way
