Verse 1:

E                       F#m
By the time you get to hear this
A                          E
I'll be long gone down the road
E                         F#m
Without a toothbrush or a   suitcase
A                     E
In a world I didn't know
A                             F#m         G#m   A
 By the time you get through college
A                          F#m      B
 By the time you learn to drive
 A                     F#m           B       A
I'll be pecking through the garbage of my life

Verse 2:
E                       F#m                          E
By the time you get adjusted  to  your objectionable role
E                  F#m7                       F#m          E
I'll be deleted deselected from that very ordinariness you own
A                                F#m   G#m    A                       B
When you've lost your sense of direction and burned every happiness you own
A                           F#m                         E
I’ll have made my last connection on the long journey home
