[Verse 1]
Fmaj7 A#maj7 A#maj7/A
How do you know if you've done everything right?
Gm7
Is it the love you have at hand
C7
Or the cash you kiss at night?
Fmaj7 A#maj7 A#maj7/A
How do you know if it was worth it in the end?
Gm7
Did every second really count?
C7
Or were there some you should've spent
Dm A#
On anything but anyone you love?
Dm A#
Was this the life that you were dreaming of?

In the sake of some small game

In the sake of someone's name

It's family and friends and that's the truth

The fountain doesn't give you back your youth

You're stayin' up too late at night and laughin' under kitchen lights

So hard, you start to cry
