[Intro]

[Verse]
GTwenty-seven dollars in an old jean jacket
And there’s Emdust under the collar ’cause I’ve been walking for hours
But I’m Calmost where I said that I woulGd be
Just like Glong television this heart full of ambition
Has been Emhaunting my dreams reaching for grander things
And I Cnever really knew if they could bGe mine
[Chorus]
And I’m Emout way Cpast my Gprime
EmLooking for reasons I Cdidn’t get my Gtime
[Break]
G  G  Em  Em
C  C  G  G
[Verse]
Keep a Gbottle top list of the chances I missed
While I’m Emon my way to that vacant place
But I Cpromised myself I would not Gescape
One more Gdrink and I’m anyone’s useless mess
Just a Emhelpless man with no self defense
If CI’m not yours, what are you lookinGg for?
[Chorus]
And I’m Emout way Cpast my Gprime
EmLooking for reasons I Cdidn’t get my Gtime
[Break]
G  Em  C  G

G  Em  C  G
G  Em  C
[Verse]
If my Gknees aren’t bleeding when I seem defeated
If I Emtry to save face before I make it
to where I Cset out and swore that I would Gfind
[Chorus]
And I’m Emout way Cpast my Gprime
EmLooking for reasons I Cdidn’t get my Gtime
And I’m Emout way Cpast my Gprime
EmLooking for reasons I Cdidn’t get my Gtime

[Intro]

[Verse]

Twenty-seven dollars in an old jean jacket

And there’s dust under the collar ’cause I’ve been walking for hours

C G

But I’m almost where I said that I would be

Just like long television this heart full of ambition

Has been haunting my dreams reaching for grander things

C G

And I never really knew if they could be mine

[Chorus]

Em C G

And I’m out way past my prime

Em C G

Looking for reasons I didn’t get my time

[Break]

G G Em Em

Keep a bottle top list of the chances I missed

While I’m on my way to that vacant place

One more drink and I’m anyone’s useless mess

Just a helpless man with no self defense

C G

If I’m not yours, what are you looking for?

[Chorus]

Em C G

And I’m out way past my prime

Looking for reasons I didn’t get my time

And I’m out way past my prime

Em C G

Looking for reasons I didn’t get my time

And I’m out way past my prime

Looking for reasons I didn’t get my time
