CThe songs in my C#dim7head they always Dm7seem to be so Gsentimental
CAnd here in my C#dim7heart they always Dm7echo out so Gclear
CBut when I hear them out C#dim7loud, all the Dm7melodies they Gstart to jumble
CThe lines I thought were the C#dim7best, now Dm7seem so Ginsincere
CSo I wasted no Etime, I thumbed a Fride with a D/F#stranger
And I said, CTake me anyGwhere but ChereG  
     C          C#dim7            Dm7G(b5)
Every chord I play, sounds a bit diminished
              C               C#dim7           Dm7NC
the dissonance plagues me and the stanzas lay unfinished
CStill I sing C#dim7along, but the Dm7words I form lack Ginnovation
Cso I’ll take the C#dim7open road in Dm7search of inspirGation
CSo I wasted no Etime, I thumbed a Fride with a D/F#stranger
And I said, CTake me anyGwhere but ChereC7  
F/ASome people Fm/Abthink, they are C/Galways on the D/F#brink of something
FBetter than, what they Eever E7/Dhad befoAmreAm/G  
FMe I'm the D/F#same, You know I'm a C/Ghopeless romantic that D/Fway
FBut, it seems that this town has been D/F#keeping me down
And I C/Gcan’t stick around one more D/F#day
FSo, GI'll be on my CwayG  
C       C#dim7  Dm7     G
C       C#dim7  Dm7     G
C       E       F       D/F#
C       G       C
CSo I wasted no Etime, I thumbed a Fride with a D/F#stranger
And I said, CTake me anyGwhere but ChereG  C
