A-F#m-E-A  
It's nAot the road we used to know,
they F#mtore some buildings down.
The traEffic's like a pack of dogs.A  
There's fewer trees, windows, flees,
coF#mncrete on the lawn.
There's peEople here but you are goneA.
And I'm fF#mine, still swimming through tiC#mme.
AfEraid some days I've reached the shore.A  
Make yourself fF#mree, a man said that to C#mme.
Now my hBmeart is like an Eopen Adoor.
And the road fiBmnally gave me bEack
but I doAn't think A/G#I'll unpaF#mckF#  
'Cause I'm nBmot sure if I lEive here anAymore.
It's not my weight that makes me faint.
Or the suF#mgar in my blood.
but the Eway these strangers stand so closAe.
They say my name, like a guessing game.
"Hey, F#mIs that really you?"
No, EI don't think it ever wasA.
In the spF#mring,
when the world's turning gC#mreen,
I oEnly think about the faAll,
or the frets on the bF#moard
a progression of cC#mhords.
Oh Bmhow I want this Eto resolve.A  
And the road fiBmnally gave me bacEk,
but I dAon't think A/G#I'll unpaF#mck.F#  
'Cause I'm Bmnot sure if I lEive here anymorAe.
Now the road finBmally gave me bEack,
but I dAon't think A/G#I'll unpF#mack.F#  
'Cause I'm Bmnot sure If I live hEere,
no, I'm nBmot sure if I liEve here anymore.
I'm Bmnot sure if I Elive here anymoreA
