Verse 1 -

FF             A minorAm            Fmaj7Fmaj7
Today I walked through the door and fell down on my floor
       A minorAm
Got all of my papers out and read them
FF          A minorAm             Fmaj7Fmaj7
Seems that I've been wanderin' for a little too long
           A minorAm
Yeah, the desert can be hot if you waste it
FF         A minorAm           Fmaj7Fmaj7
Took a stab in the dark and missed again I believe
            A minorAm
The hardest part is not seein' what I used to see
FF         A minorAm              Fmaj7Fmaj7
My fifth route to endeavor where it does all it can
          A minorAm
To whisper in both my ears make-believe stories

Chorus 1 -

Bb majorBb          G minorGm
Where are my friends now?
      FF   G minorGm   A minorAm  FF
They're not around when I need them
Bb majorBb    G minorGm
I cannot pretend
           FF   G minorGm   A minorAm     FF
Yeah I find myself against all the odds again

FF A minorAm Fmaj7Fmaj7 A minorAm

Verse 2 -

FF          A minorAm             Fmaj7Fmaj7
I like to think I'm strong and then I'm proven wrong
          A minorAm
Grab the keys to my car and go to work again
FF       A minorAm
Yeah showed up late
          Fmaj7Fmaj7
Got screamed in my face
         A minorAm
Turn around, I'm punched drunk

But I'm laughin'
FF             A minorAm                  Fmaj7Fmaj7
 Got some thoughts in my chest, they're playin' games with my head
       A minorAm
Ten hours of sleep, I'm in my bed again
FF         A minorAm          Fmaj7Fmaj7
 Scream up to my God, say "I do what I can"
        A minorAm
How am I gonna move out from this circus dance?

Chorus 2 -

Bb majorBb          G minorGm
Where are my friends now?
      FF   G minorGm   A minorAm  FF
They're not around when I need them
Bb majorBb    G minorGm
I cannot pretend
           FF   G minorGm   A minorAm     FF
Yeah I find myself against all the odds again

Outro -

A minorAm  Fmaj7Fmaj7
Yeah, yeah
      A minorAm   G minorGm     FF
I'm against all the odds again

[x4]
