Verse 1:
Em                   D
  whenever i step outside 
somebody claims to 
A/C#
see the light
                    C
it seems to me that all of 
        D
us have lost our patience
Em
  cause everyone thinks 
        D
they're right
and nobody thinks that 
A/C#
there just might
be more than one road 
C            D
to our final destination
Chorus 1:
Em
  but i'm not ever going to 
D           Am
know if i'm right or wrong
                C
cause we're all going 
       D
in the same direction
Em
  and i'm not sure which way

we've been going in 
    D
the same direction
Verse 2:
Em                     D
  i'm tired of playing games of 
                    A/C#
looking for someone else to blame
                     C
for all the holes in answers 
         D
that are clearly showing
Em                           D
  for something to fill the space
                       A/C#
was all of the time i spent a waste
                      C
cause so many choices point 
             D
the same way i was going

Bridge:

  so why does there only have to 
D                     A/C#
be one correct philosophy?
                              C
i don't want to go and follow you 
                    D
just to end up like one of them
Em
  and why are you always telling 
D                        A/C#
me what you want me to believe?
i'd like to think that i can 
C                 D
go my own way and meet you in the end
C                 D
