Capo 3rd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Verse 1

People say it just doesn't matter but

 The closer I get I'm giving in

 I can't escape

 Damn what a shame

Listen to me just for a minute

 I can be quick, no gimmick

 I got a plan, you should live it

Pre-chorus

 The closer I get, I can't relate

 This ain't our place, let us go far, far away

Find a new home, rules of our own

 You and me both are the same

 Try to be strong, baby come on now, come on

Lie after lie, so many times

When I'm trying to find a peace of mind

Chorus

 I've got love for you when the time gets rough

When all the stress adds up and when you say I've had enough

2x

Verse 2

Whatever happened to the good times

We should create for ourselves not rely on

They'll never get a hold of me

Simple you see, simplicity yeah

 The closer I get I can't relate

 I can't escape

 Oh, the pain

 How they lie all the time

when I'm trying to find a peace of mind

Bridge

Yes I found my own way out

 I'm going all the way...

 Until the people all find out

 They're going all the way down...
