Intro:   G   D   Em   Am   Cx2
I Gknow that Dit's been sEmaid before,
but Amnot like this, or Cwith these chords:
I Gwish that DI was Emsomeone else
so AmI could sit down Cwith myself,
and mGaybe DI could Emhelp explain
these Amcrazy thoughts CI entertain
aGbout my Dlife, and eEmverything,
like Amhow it's really Chappening right now.
 G   D   Em   Am   Cx2
I'm Gbored, I'm Drestless, Emdisconnected,
Amaimlessness has Cleft me breathless.
But Gmy life Dhas been Emredirected
Amand I'm starting Cto accept this.
So Gefforts Dnow must Embe relentless
beAmcause failure's leaving me Cso upset with
myGself, but I Dswear this is Emall that I love;
Amyou're going to see exacCtly what I'm made of tonight.
G D Em Am C C
As for the Drest of my life,
well, I'll Gjust wait and see what G7happens to me 
from Amhere.C  C7  
So it Emseems, like all of the Gtime
I'm Amabout to change my Cmind.
I'm so Emnaive, yet resoGlute
after I've dAmecided what to Cdo.
I can't wear a Emtie on my collared Gshirt,
I can't get a Amjob and just go to Cwork.
I'm worried Emsick like you wouldn't beGlieve
have you any iAmdea what this means to Cme?C7  
 G   Em   Am   Cx2
GLooking Dback now Emmakes me laugh,
I'm Amgrateful I don't want the Cthings that I lack.
ExGcept for Dtime, oh Emgoddam me,
when did Amfree time become such a Cluxury?
See, if GI don't Ddo this Emwhile I'm young
I'm Amcertain that it Cwont get done.
So I've Gmade my Dchoice and Emit's all right,
I'm Amready to really start Cliving my life.
So I Gswear to Dgod that I will Emquit my job
and Amdrive until my Ccar just stops.
I'll Gwalk unDtil I Emreach the ocean,
Ammaybe I will know Cwhat to Ddo by Gthen.

G D Em Am C

Intro: x2

G D Em

I know that it's been said before,

Am C

but not like this, or with these chords:

G D Em

I wish that I was someone else

Am C

so I could sit down with myself,

G D Em

and maybe I could help explain

Am C

these crazy thoughts I entertain

G D Em

about my life, and everything,

Am C

like how it's really happening right now.

G D Em Am C

G D Em

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

Am C

aimlessness has left me breathless.

G D Em

But my life has been redirected

Am C

and I'm starting to accept this.

G D Em

So efforts now must be relentless

Am C

because failure's leaving me so upset with

G D Em

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

Am C

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

G D Em Am C C

As for the rest of my life,

G G7

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

Am C C7

from here.

Em G

So it seems, like all of the time

Am C

I'm about to change my mind.

Em G

I'm so naive, yet resolute

Am C

after I've decided what to do.

Em G

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

Am C

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

Em G

I'm worried sick like you wouldn't believe

Am C C7

have you any idea what this means to me?

G Em Am C

G D Em

Looking back now makes me laugh,

Am C

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

G D Em

Except for time, oh goddam me,

Am C

when did free time become such a luxury?

G D Em

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

Am C

I'm certain that it wont get done.

G D Em

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

Am C

I'm ready to really start living my life.

G D Em

So I swear to god that I will quit my job

Am C

and drive until my car just stops.

G D Em

I'll walk until I reach the ocean,

Am C D G

maybe I will know what to do by then.
