D#m        D#m           B            C#
[Verse 1]
D#mClean, I think it's time to come D#mclean
That all I thought I Bbelieved, is getting harder to C#see
And I felt nothing but D#mshame, I felt the ground start to cD#mhange
Oh as we fell aBway, oh we've got to C#escape
[Chorus]
I feel like giving it D#mup
I've done my time
I feel like giving it F#up
This time can't tow the line
I feel like giving it G#mup
I think about this every night, Bwoah C#woah
D#mI've done my time
I feel like giving it F#up
This time can't tow the line
I feel like giving it G#mup
I think about this every night, Bwoah C#woah
D#m                D#m
[Verse 2]
Say what you D#mmean, I'm a kid and I'm broken but pD#mlease
I'm not one to get down on my Bknees in the dirt, as my throat starts to hurt
C#Infecting my soul but ill preach if I'm taught it
NineD#mteen, I started to realise a D#mdream
But the process you speak of is Bflawed in a way, we're too scared to say
You're C#breaking the record the needle decays
[Chorus]
D#mI've done my time
I feel like giving it F#up
This time can't tow the line
I feel like giving it G#mup
I think about this every night, Bwoah C#woah

I feel like giving it F#up
This time can't tow the line
I feel like giving it G#mup
I think about this every night, Bwoah C#woah
[Break]
As I start to Bbelieve, as I'm chasing my C#dream
Well you had your D#mway
And all the Bwhile, if we're starting to C#fly
D#mMaybe it's time,time
And all the Bwhile, if we're starting to C#fly
[Chorus]
I feel like giving it D#mup
