Verse 1:
C                 D              G
Grit my teeth and face a new day dawning
C                   D               G
Take a deep breath, then get up and go
C                D               C
Tie the same old weary shoes and walk the same old pathway
G                               D
I never see a face that I don't know
                                   G
Oh God if I could just pack up and go

Chorus:
C                           G
Hungry for some other face, hungry for some other place
D                            G
Needing something and I know what, God I know what
    C
I'm tired of seeing the same old road
G
Tired of carrying the same old load
D                            G
Hungry for something I ain't got

Verse 2:
    C                D           G
Her face across that table every mornin'
    C              D                 G
And lately I don't notice that she's there
C                 D                C
Always leave that breakfast table, feelin' so damned empty
    G                                          D
She knows there's something wrong, but I don't care
                                   G
Oh God how much more of this can I bear?
