[Verse 1]
I see the Ebmaj9road.Eb  
But where will it taCm7ke me?
I'll carry my Ebmaj9loadEb  
and follow the sCm7igns.
The signs show no Ebmaj9/Abhope
and most of them Cm7blank anyway.
Where is the Ebmaj9rope
I can tug so you'll Cm7save me?
[Chorus]
Still I Gm7try to mainAbtain in cleBbver conveCm7rsation.
I Gm7just found Ablove, now I'm sBbeeking my salvCm7ation
from the Gm7fear and the rAbealness. I'll eBbscape my adoCm7lesence
but Dbsus2no.     
No, Abno,
there's no turning Ebmaj9back nowCm7  
[Interlude]
Emaj9/Ab
Eb/G   Absus2   Bb7sus2

Like a punch in the Ebmaj9face,
this news can't hit Cm7harder.
I'm losing my Ebmaj9place
tryin' to swallow it Cm7down.
Am I awakeEbmaj9/Ab?
Should I question Bbmy aCm7rdor?
For ev'ry worEbmaj9d that she says.
Ev'ry worCm7d that she says.
[Chorus]
I should Gm7leave this plAbace, pretBbend it's not Cm7my bother.
BbFind sGm7omeone eAblse 'cause I'm Bbnot prepared to Cm7father.
BbI'm Gm7seventAbeen for Christ sake and BbI just want my Cm7mom,
Bbbut Dbsus2no.
No, nAbo,
there's no turning bAbsus4ack now
[Bridge]
And Absus2suddenly I've sunk into nothing. I'm useless 'cause
Eb/GI don't give a fuck about nothing.
But she seems Fm11trusting. She says she loves me.
But Eb/Gwhat does that Abmean?Bbadd4  
Oh, what a Absus2coward!
I took no blame for how it Eb/Ghappened.
She says she loves me and still I feel Fm11cornered
I wish I had my dad for this man to manEb/G...Ab  Bbadd4  
but he Gmleft me.
Bb/FOh, he Gmleft me.Bb/F  Cm7  
It was a mistake, but it was Bbadd4/Dmine to make.
Leave it or Eb5take it, I'll brave through Eb5/Gthe paAbsus2in.
I've got Cm7time.
I've got Bbadd4/Dnine months to get my shit Eb5together
and Eb5/Gturn myself Absus2around.
I can proEbtect her.
She Fm11loves me... it's in this Eb/Gletter.
I'll go Bbmshow her I'm a Ebman.
Eb7I won't Ablet her Abmdown.
