Standard (EADGBE)
It was the best of my intentions,
In the first week of spring,
To set the standard for the year.
I redefined my expectations,
Through calculated moves,
And I've got nothing more to lose.
So forget self-pity I think I've finally found the art,
Of resetting without falling apart.
Ignore the rainclouds, this is the clearest sky I've seen,
And my worries are cast off to sea.
I feel so alive! I feel so alive! I feel so alive...
Bridge
And it was coming to November,
And my confidence was shot,
And I was searching for the plot.
I used gunpowder and reason,
And oh hell it was the season,
And I'm not selling myself short.
Forget self-pity I think I've finally found the art,
Of resetting without falling apart.
Ignore the rainclouds, this is the clearest sky I've seen,
And my worries are cast out to sea.
I feel so alive! I feel so alive!
So take everything you want! I do know if I'll be back!
So take everything you want! I do know if I'll be back!
So just take everything that you want!
I'll return to be a better man than the one that left,
Better man than the one that left.
Forget self-pity I think I've finally found the art,
Of resetting without falling apart.
Ignore the rainclouds, this is the clearest sky I've seen,
And my worries are cast off to sea.
I feel so alive! I feel so alive!
