[Intro]: Dm Am Dm C F C F A

Dm       Am   Dm            C        F
Another day, waking to the same old beat
          C      F                   A          Dm
Counting doors, walking through the same old street
          Am Dm          C       F
Breathing in, breathing out the same
            C           F          A     Dm
Nothing's changed, just imitating yesterday
       Am   Dm            C   F
Count down, all the opportunities
             C        F              A         Dm
It's down to one, now everything is falling on me
       Am         Dm            C            F
Alarm bells, are warning me to do something soon
      C         F           A
Get away, I've got to get away

Gm          C                  Dm Am Dm Am
I hear the sound of something new
Gm           C             A
Give me the key to unlock you

Dm          C         G  F    E    Bb
Time after time, and nothing has changed
     F      C         G               Bb
Time after time, and we're still the same
    F      C        G            Bb
Day after day, and nothing has changed
     F     C        G           Bb
And now I feel that I'm gonna break
    G           Bb         C
So just cannot wait, to repeat yesterday

[Interlude]: Dm Am Dm C F C F A

Dm           Am         Dm                 C            F
It's just a game where you're the boss and I'm just a slave
            C       F              A     Dm
You trap me in, and I just play to entertain
         Am       Dm                C       F
Nothing more, so make your move and I'll be ok
          C        F              A           Dm
I try my best, but all you do is laugh in my face
       Am Dm            C          F
A gunshot will wake you up in the night
            C       F                A         Dm
You better run, or you will end up seeing the light
         Am       Dm            C            F
My heartbeat, is warning me to do something soon
      C         F           A
Get away, I've got to get away

Gm           C                 Dm Am Dm Am
I hear the sound of something new
Bb           E             A
Give me the key to unlock you

Dm          C         G  F    E    Bb
Time after time, and nothing has changed

Time after time, and we're still the same
    F      C        G            Bb
Day after day, and nothing has changed
     F     C        G           Bb
And now I feel that I'm gonna break
    G           Bb         C          A         F  G  A  Dm
So just cannot wait, to repeat yesterday, yeah yeah
