Intro
C#
[Verse]
C#
I would have thought by now I’d be overgrown
C#
and at the station waiting I should have known
F#
just how much life was inside of me, cut down a branch of my family tree.
C#
You find it hard to see that the future’s bright ‘cus you just sleep all day and stay up all night.
F#
Be safe, be brave, be whatever you like, just don’t involve me
F#
‘cus I don’t wanna do it again.
[Chorus]
D#m G# C#
I’m getting tired and old. I only wanted a friend
A#m D#m
someone to do as they’re told. I started falling apart
G#
as I was ready to go.
[Verse]
C#
I see a glass half full and you say you don’t.
I know you say you will but I know you won’t.
F#
Your teeth dug in and they won’t let go,
you try your best but it just don’t show.
C#
And when the road is closed and you’re walking home
could it be time to call it and just go home
F#
to your fine line of a quiet life,
acquired by knowing that
F#
I don’t wanna do it again.
[Chorus]
D#m G# C#
I’m getting tired and old. I only wanted a friend,
A#m D#m
I’ll do whatever I’m told. I started falling apart
G#
as I was ready to go.
[Solo]
D#m G# C# Dm
D#m G# C#
[Outro]
C# F# D#m G#
When everything beside you comes crashing down I’ll find you
C# F# D#m G#
and while I sleep I see you and what it’s like to be you
C# F# D#m G#
Take care and don’t be fearful, there’s no undoing evil.
C# F# D#m G# C#
It’s all a bunch of lies anyway, so why bother, why waste your tiiiiiiiiiiiii
C#
iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiime
