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