F C#dim7 Gm7 C
The songs in my head they always seem to be so sentimental
F C#dim7 Gm7 C
And here in my heart they always echo out so clear
F C#dim7 Gm7 C
But when I hear them out loud, all the melodies they start to jumble
F C#dim7 Gm7 C
The lines I thought were the best, now seem so insincere
F A A# G/B
So I wasted no time, I thumbed a ride with a stranger
F C F C
And I said, Take me anywhere but here
F C#dim7 Gm7 G(b5)
Every chord I play, sounds a bit diminished
F C#dim7 Gm7 NC
the dissonance plagues me and the stanzas lay unfinished
F C#dim7 Gm7 C
Still I sing along, but the words I form lack innovation
F C#dim7 Gm7 C
so I’ll take the open road in search of inspiration
F A A# G/B
So I wasted no time, I thumbed a ride with a stranger
F C F F7
And I said, Take me anywhere but here
A#/D A#m/Db F/C G/B
Some people think, they are always on the brink of something
A# A A7/G Dm Dm/C
Better than, what they ever had before
A# G/B F/C G/A#
Me I'm the same, You know I'm a hopeless romantic that way
A# G/B
But, it seems that this town has been keeping me down
F/C G/B
And I can’t stick around one more day
A# C F C
So, I'll be on my way
