F#m               F
   The distance to the end
  A           E
Is closer now than it's ever been
F#m           F
Road we traveled far
       A           E
All the lights and sights we saw
F#m                 F
No room left on the pages
               A        E
We filled 'em up and painted some
F#m                      F
Though the book it may never be read

Oh, by anyone, oh, anyone but me

And I hope that today and every day is grand

Oh, I apologize, so sorry 'bout the timing
         Bm                              E              D
But you know, something that I never had was the uppеr hand

🤘 Verse 2:
F#m                 F
Lonely ship on the horizon
     A       E
Silhouettе fading out
F#m                    F
Bright lights make for dark shadows
     A                     E
The lines once defined getting blurry now

D                            A    G
And I hope the people are smiling
      D                                     A  E
Oh, how I always wanted to be like one of them
       D                              A    G
Oh, I apologize, so sorry 'bout the timing
