Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

x2

 I know that it's been said before,

 but not like this, or with these chords:

 I wish that I was someone else

 so I could sit down with myself,

 and maybe I could help explain

 these crazy thoughts I entertain

 about my life, and everything,

 like how it's really happening right now.

x2

 I'm bored, I'm restless, disconnected,

aimlessness has left me breathless.

 But my life has been redirected

and I'm starting to accept this.

 So efforts now must be relentless

 because failure's leaving me so upset with

 myself, but I swear this is all that I love;

you're going to see exactly what I'm made of tonight.

 As for the rest of my life,

 well, I'll just wait and see what happens to me

 from here.

 So it seems, like all of the time

 I'm about to change my mind.

 I'm so naive, yet resolute

 after I've decided what to do.

 I can't wear a tie on my collared shirt,

 I can't get a job and just go to work.

 I'm worried sick like you wouldn't believe

 have you any idea what this means to me?

x2

Looking back now makes me laugh,

 I'm grateful I don't want the things that I lack.

 Except for time, oh goddam me,

 when did free time become such a luxury?

 See, if I don't do this while I'm young

 I'm certain that it wont get done.

 So I've made my choice and it's all right,

 I'm ready to really start living my life.

 So I swear to god that I will quit my job

 and drive until my car just stops.

 I'll walk until I reach the ocean,

maybe I will know what to do by then.
