[Verse 1]

If I had to be honest
G A
If I had to be completely true
Em A D
I’ve forgotten what I had set out to do
[Refrain]
C C# D Em
That’s when you step back, take some time
F#m Em D Em
Wait a minute, tow the line, you’ll be fine
F#m Em D
Everything will be alright
[Verse 2]
D Em
I don’t think I believe it

I’ve waited my whole life and then some
Em A D
I guess someday I’ll die before it comes
[Refrain]
C C# D Em
That’s when you step back, take some time
F#m Em D Em
Wait a minute, tow the line, you’ll be fine
F#m Em D
Everything will be alright
[Chorus]
Bm Em
Devil’s waiting round the corner for us
F#m Fm Em A
And I’m quite scared to be honest

I’ve been searching for some meaning in this life
G A D
And if it won’t come soon then I’m done
[Interlude]
D
[Verse 3]
D Em
You wake up in the morning and you
G A
Work all day for someone's dream

What is life when you barely make ends meet?

Everything will be alright (at least that’s what they tell you)

Death is waiting round the corner for us

And you’re quite scared just be honest
Bm Em
You’ve been searching for some meaning
F#m
In this madness somewhere
G A D
But you’re not sure if there is
G A Bm
No you're not sure if there is
Em D A
(I guess you gotta make your own meaning and when it comes to it you’ll say “I tried, I tried”)
[Outro]
G D Bm
I don’t wanna live slow I wanted to know
A D A G D
How someone can try and not feel so disheartened and low
Bm G A D
I couldn’t have guessed, maybe I just won’t return at all
