G C#dim7 Am7 D
The songs in my head they always seem to be so sentimental
G C#dim7 Am7 D
And here in my heart they always echo out so clear
G C#dim7 Am7 D
But when I hear them out loud, all the melodies they start to jumble
G C#dim7 Am7 D
The lines I thought were the best, now seem so insincere
G B C A/C#
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 Am7 G(b5)
Every chord I play, sounds a bit diminished
G C#dim7 Am7 NC
the dissonance plagues me and the stanzas lay unfinished
G C#dim7 Am7 D
Still I sing along, but the words I form lack innovation
G C#dim7 Am7 D
so I’ll take the open road in search of inspiration
G B C A/C#
So I wasted no time, I thumbed a ride with a stranger
G D G G7
And I said, Take me anywhere but here
C/E Cm/Eb G/D A/C#
Some people think, they are always on the brink of something
C B B7/A Em Em/D
Better than, what they ever had before
C A/C# G/D A/C
Me I'm the same, You know I'm a hopeless romantic that way
C A/C#
But, it seems that this town has been keeping me down
G/D A/C#
And I can’t stick around one more day
C D G D
So, I'll be on my way
