Great song by a great band with a strange name. They deserve to get more recognition.
The chords are easy, but you can add a few notes to the transitions to spice it up a little.
Intro: G D Em Am C x2
G D Em
I know that it's been said before,
Am C
but not like this, or with these chords:
G D Em
I wish that I was someone else
Am C
so I could sit down with myself,
G D Em
and maybe I could help explain
Am C
these crazy thoughts I entertain
G D Em
about my life, and everything,
Am C
like how it's really happening right now.
G D Em Am C x2
G D Em
I'm bored, I'm restless, disconnected,
Am C
aimlessness has left me breathless.
G D Em
But my life has been redirected
Am C
and I'm starting to accept this.
G D Em
So efforts now must be relentless
Am C
because failure's leaving me so upset with
G D Em
myself, but I swear this is all that I love;
Am C
you're going to see exactly what I'm made of tonight.
G D Em Am C C
D
As for the rest of my life,
G G7
well, I'll just wait and see what happens to me
Am C C7
from here.
Em G
So it seems, like all of the time
Am C
I'm about to change my mind.
Em G
I'm so naive, yet resolute
Am C
after I've decided what to do.
Em G
I can't wear a tie on my collared shirt,
Am C
I can't get a job and just go to work.
Em G
I'm worried sick like you wouldn't believe
Am C C7
have you any idea what this means to me?
G Em Am C x2
G D Em
Looking back now makes me laugh,
Am C
I'm grateful I don't want the things that I lack.
G D Em
Except for time, oh goddam me,
Am C
when did free time become such a luxury?
G D Em
See, if I don't do this while I'm young
Am C
I'm certain that it wont get done.
G D Em
So I've made my choice and it's all right,
Am C
I'm ready to really start living my life.
G D Em
So I swear to god that I will quit my job
Am C
and drive until my car just stops.
G D Em
I'll walk until I reach the ocean,
Am C D G
maybe I will know what to do by then.
