[Verse 1]
I got a Empocket full of Gherbal highs
That EmI bought off a Greal nice guy
So don't Amthreaten me with Da good time
I doCn't need no exEmcuse
And Emwhen those feelings Gcome again
I'd Dlike to say I'll Ambe prepared
Be Bmwe all know I'll Amjust cave in given
OpporCtunitiesD  
[Chorus]
So Gtake these opportDunities out
Tie Gme to some straiDght stout mast
But don't Amplug my ears or gEmag my mouth
There's stCill some things need Bmdoing
GTake my choices all aDway
Tell me Ghow to feel and Dwhat to say
And mAmaybe I'll find some Empeace someday without these
COpportDunitiesG  
[Verse 2]
Now Emfinally homewaGrds we drive
And hEmalf-cut I try tGo describe
How that Amsmile just makes Dme come alive
It rCeally starts mEme cryin
And I can Emhear the words fall Gfrom my mouth
In tDhe rear view mirrAmor I can see myself
I sBmhut up and we turAmn to south
And I Creally feel liDke dyin
[Chorus]
So Gtake these opportDunities out
Tie Gme to some straiDght stout mast

GTake my choices all aDway
Tell me Ghow to feel and Dwhat to say
