Capo 3
=
How can [G] one become so bounded by [D/F#] choices that somebody [Em] else makes?
How come we’ve [Am] both become a [G] version of a person we don’t even [D/F#] like? [D]
We’re in [G] love with the world but the [D/F#] world just wants to bring [Em] us down
By putting i [Am] deas in our heads that cor [G] rupt our hearts some [D/F#] how [D]
[G] When I was a child every [D/F#] single thing could blow my [Em] mind
Soaking it [Am] all up for fun but [G] now I only soak up [D/F#] wine [D]
They say to [G] play hard you work hard find [D/F#] balance in the sacri [Em] fice
Yet I don’t [Am] know anybody who’s [G] truly satis [D/F#] fied [D]
You better believe I’m [G] trying [B7] ...to keep clim [Em] bing [D]
But the [Am] higher we climb feels like we’re both none the [D] wiser
So I hope I [G] learn to get [D/F#] over my [Em] self
Stop trying to [Am] be [G] somebody [D/F#] else [D]
So we can [G] love each [D/F#] other for [Em] free
Everybody wants [Am] something, [G] you just want [D/F#] me [D]
[G] Why am I obsessing ab [D/F#] out the things I can’t con [Em] trol?
Why am I [Am] seeking approval from [G] people I don’t even [D/F#] know? [D]
In these [G] crazy times I hope to find [D/F#] something I can cling on [Em] to
Cause I need [Am] some substance in my life
Something [G] real, something that feels [D/F#] true [D]
You better believe for [G] you [B7] ...I’ve cried high [Em] tides [D]
Cause I [Am] want you so bad but you can’t fight fire with [D] fire
So I hope I [G] learn to get [D/F#] over my [Em] self
Stop trying to [Am] be [G] somebody [D/F#] else [D]
So we can [G] love each [D/F#] other for [Em] free
Everybody wants [Am] something, [G] you just want [D/F#] me [D]
Listen I [G] know how low I can go [D/F#] I give as good as [Em] I get
[Am] You get the brunt of it [G] all cause you’re all I’ve got [D/F#] left [D]
Oh I [G] hope in time we [D/F#] both will find peace of [Em] mind
Sometimes the [Am] road less travelled is a [G] road best left be[D/F#] hind [D]
I hope I [G] learn to get [D/F#] over my [Em] self
Stop trying to [Am] be [G] somebody [D/F#] else [D]
So we can [G] love each [D/F#] other for [Em] free
Everybody wants [Am] something, [G] you just want [D/F#] me [D]
