Verse 1:
E minorEm
 Well I've tried to live like
         G+G     C majorC
The way that you wanted me to
   E minorEm     D MajorD
Never needed the proof
   D5D5      A augmentedA
Just followed the rules
E minorEm
 I pick up all the pieces
       G+G    C majorC
And I move my feet as fast as I can
      E minorEm    D MajorD
I'm always falling behind
   D5D5      A augmentedA
Just float in the lines
E minorEm                    G+G    C majorC
 You want more and ambition's taken its toll on you

Well hey your confidence is fading
A augmentedA
With your youth

C majorC
 And you say

That dreamers always get what they desire
(C majorC)
Well I've found
   G+G             D MajorD
The more I want, the less I've got


Chorus:

Is this the life you've been waiting for?

Where you want with a little more?

Verse 2:
E minorEm        G+G    C majorC
 You're coughing blood again
        E minorEm      D MajorD
I know 'cause I clean up the mess
   D5D5   A augmentedA
Every now and then
E minorEm
 Fold the line along the seam
         G+G   C majorC
Force a smile and never say what you mean
       E minorEm    D MajorD
You're in the promised land
      D5D5   A augmentedA
In someone else's dream
E minorEm
 If you want more and you'll get there
        G+G    C majorC
Throw a quarter in the well
    E minorEm     D MajorD
It's okay, you're fine
 D5D5    A augmentedA
Ambition's not a crime

The more I want, the less I've got
