[Chorus]
I always wanted to leaveC#m  
I'm just so sick of Amaj7how
You just invested in meC#m  
So now I gotta Amaj7find the best way out
(I always wanted to leave)C#m  
[Verse 1]
C#mToo many days that I've wasted
Say that I'm Amaj7abrasive, complacent
Got you moving back and you can't C#mface it
Some days I wish that both my lungs would caveAmaj7  
Fall asleep and never wake so that my words could breatheC#m  
Spare me all your insecuritiesAmaj7  
I've got my own but I don't flaunt 'em so religiously
C#mWhy do I keep giving time away
Amaj7Guess I just have to say
[Chorus]

So now I gotta Amaj7find the best way out
(I always wanted to leave)C#m  
[Verse 2]
C#mI guess it's a shame
I'm so damn Amaj7destructive
And you're so reluctant to mean what you C#msay

The Amaj7things you confuse
You know I always wanted to leavC#me
