Intro

[Verse]
A
I would have thought by now I’d be overgrown
A
and at the station waiting I should have known
D
just how much life was inside of me, cut down a branch of my family tree.
A
You find it hard to see that the future’s bright ‘cus you just sleep all day and stay up all night.
D
Be safe, be brave, be whatever you like, just don’t involve me
D
‘cus I don’t wanna do it again.
[Chorus]
Bm E A
I’m getting tired and old. I only wanted a friend
F#m Bm
someone to do as they’re told. I started falling apart
E
as I was ready to go.
[Verse]
A
I see a glass half full and you say you don’t.
I know you say you will but I know you won’t.
D
Your teeth dug in and they won’t let go,
you try your best but it just don’t show.
A
And when the road is closed and you’re walking home
could it be time to call it and just go home
D
to your fine line of a quiet life,
acquired by knowing that
D
I don’t wanna do it again.
[Chorus]
Bm E A
I’m getting tired and old. I only wanted a friend,
F#m Bm
I’ll do whatever I’m told. I started falling apart
E
as I was ready to go.

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