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]
Dm G C
I’m getting tired and old. I only wanted a friend
Am Dm
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]
Dm G C
I’m getting tired and old. I only wanted a friend,
Am Dm
I’ll do whatever I’m told. I started falling apart
G
as I was ready to go.

[Outro]
C F Dm G
When everything beside you comes crashing down I’ll find you
C F Dm G
and while I sleep I see you and what it’s like to be you
C F Dm G
Take care and don’t be fearful, there’s no undoing evil.
C F Dm G C
It’s all a bunch of lies anyway, so why bother, why waste your tiiiiiiiiiiiii
C
iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiime
