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

Some people think, they are always on the brink of something
C# C C7/A# Fm Fm/D#
Better than, what they ever had before
C# A#/D G#/D# A#/C#
Me I'm the same, You know I'm a hopeless romantic that way
C# A#/D
But, it seems that this town has been keeping me down
G#/D# A#/D
And I can’t stick around one more day
C# D# G# D#
So, I'll be on my way
