Intro
F#
[Verse 1]
F# G#m
If I had to be honest
B C#
If I had to be completely true
G#m C# F#
I’ve forgotten what I had set out to do
[Refrain]
E F F# G#m
That’s when you step back, take some time
A#m G#m F# G#m
Wait a minute, tow the line, you’ll be fine
A#m G#m F#
Everything will be alright
[Verse 2]
F# G#m
I don’t think I believe it
B C#
I’ve waited my whole life and then some
G#m C# F#
I guess someday I’ll die before it comes
[Refrain]
E F F# G#m
That’s when you step back, take some time
A#m G#m F# G#m
Wait a minute, tow the line, you’ll be fine
A#m G#m F#
Everything will be alright
[Chorus]
D#m G#m
Devil’s waiting round the corner for us
A#m Am G#m C#
And I’m quite scared to be honest
D#m G#m A#m
I’ve been searching for some meaning in this life
B C# F#
And if it won’t come soon then I’m done
[Interlude]
F#
[Verse 3]
F# G#m
You wake up in the morning and you
B C#
Work all day for someone's dream
G#m C# F#
What is life when you barely make ends meet?
[Refrain]
E F F# G#m
But they say step back, take some time
A#m G#m E G#m
Wait a minute, tow the line, you’ll be fine
A#m G#m F#
Everything will be alright (at least that’s what they tell you)
[Chorus]
D#m G#m
Death is waiting round the corner for us
A#m Am G#m C#
And you’re quite scared just be honest
D#m G#m
You’ve been searching for some meaning
A#m
In this madness somewhere
B C# F#
But you’re not sure if there is
B C# D#m
No you're not sure if there is
G#m F# C#
(I guess you gotta make your own meaning and when it comes to it you’ll say “I tried, I tried”)
[Outro]
B F# D#m
I don’t wanna live slow I wanted to know
C# F# C# B F#
How someone can try and not feel so disheartened and low
D#m B C# F#
I couldn’t have guessed, maybe I just won’t return at all
[Outro]
