Intro
G, D, G. A#
F C
I'm making plans to pass the time
F A#
I write these songs, they seldom rhyme
Dm C
I used to quit, but now I smoke
A#
This life's the only one I know
F C
I've got some friends I never see
F A#
I wait but nothing's happening
Dm C
I asked you if you felt the same
A# C
You know the rules; won't play the game
--CHORUS--
F
If I woke up now
Dm
from a life-long dream
A# F
I'd make sure to write it down
Dm
Cause I'd like to think
A#
that I've learned some things
C
Though it's too late now
G, D, G, A#
F C
I've watched my days turn into nights
F A#
I've seen the city, but not the sights
Dm C
I've broken hearts, so mine won't break
A#
I try to learn from my mistakes
F C
I learned my lines, I'll play my part
F A#
I love the ending, but I don't know where to start
Dm C
So if you're looking for someone to lead
A#
Don't follow me
C
--CHORUS--
SOLO: G, D, G, A#, Em, D, C
F C
So I won't sleep; I will not hide
F A#
It's time to follow my advice
Dm C
And when it's time to pay dues
A# C
I'll let my life be my excuse
--CHORUS--
SOLO 2: G, D, G, C, Em, D, G, C, G
