CTake the train,
Go separate Fways,
And leave it long forgotten.
AmI'll hang my Fhat, and
I won't be Gback.
On my way out,
CI'm feeling lame.
Am I to Fblame?
Or am I just too jaded?
AmAnd I won't be Fback,
what'd ya think of Gthat?
 AmWhen it feels like life's Fwastin' away,
GI can Dsay: that when
There's Csomething on my Ammind,
It Ftakes my concenGtration.
Just wanna Clay it on the Amline,
AFvoid all confronGtation.
I'm gonna Csay this one more Amtime
for Fall my generGation,
you'll Cnever, ever Ampull my lever
Fnot today and Gnot forever
(not today and not forever)
 CTake the fame
 And change my Fname
 Because my jacket's faded
 AmAnd I'll change my Fhat
 No we can't have Gthat
 (you'll be looking at a brand new cat)
 CIt's all made up.
 I've had Fenough
 Of this circulation.
 AmIf you write me Fback,
 I'll tell you where it's Gat.
 AmWhen it feels like life's Fwastin' away,
GI can Dsay: that when
There's Csomething on my Ammind,
It Ftakes my concenGtration.
Just wanna Clay it on the Amline,
AFvoid all confronGtation.
I'm gonna Csay this one more Amtime

you'll Cnever, ever Ampull my lever
Fnot today and Gnot forever
There's Csomething on my Ammind,

Just wanna Clay it on the Amline,

Take the train,

Go separate ways,

And leave it long forgotten.

Am F

I'll hang my hat, and

I won't be back.

On my way out,

I'm feeling lame.

Am I to blame?

Or am I just too jaded?

Am F

And I won't be back,

what'd ya think of that?

Am F

When it feels like life's wastin' away,

G D

I can say: that when

C Am

There's something on my mind,

F G

It takes my concentration.

C Am

Just wanna lay it on the line,

F G

Avoid all confrontation.

C Am

I'm gonna say this one more time

F G

for all my generation,

C Am

you'll never, ever pull my lever

F G

not today and not forever

(not today and not forever)

Take the fame

And change my name

Because my jacket's faded

Am F

And I'll change my hat

No we can't have that

(you'll be looking at a brand new cat)

It's all made up.

I've had enough

Of this circulation.

If you write me back,

I'll tell you where it's at.
