C majorC
When I lost my mind I swear I met this bloke,
Am7/E
and he told me lots of things but just a few stick out,
C majorC
and he said "don't get yourself a job no roof or day plans to
G+G
just take a gamble, and see what life has for you.
C majorC
Take your time, and see the things you wanna see,"
Am7/E
and I'm like "wow man I think that sounds just like me but,
C majorC
it's not as easy as you're making out" and he said
G+G
"no but if you never try you're never gonna find out so"


C majorC
well we went our separate ways,
Am7/E
and he got me thinking, about all the things I'd like to be but,
C majorC
I've got it wrong before, and I can't think no more,
G+G
and I can't focus, right now on anything so,


C majorC
I know a place in Breda Town,
Am7/E
It's not quite Amsterdam but man it's done me proud.
C majorC
Cos I'm not quite the man I know I used to be,
G+G
but I quite like that and I think it suits me.

C majorC
and while I'm writing this I know it's getting old,
Am7/E
and it's not long until I catch the bus from Dijon city hall and I,
C majorC
I need more herb and a stimulating view,
G+G
and I just got chatting to this Dutch bird too.
C majorC
I know I'm kinda quiet and I must seem strange,
Am7/E
but I just like listening to all the things you're saying and I,
C majorC
I wouldn't wanna lie or make you look a fool,
G+G
cos I really like you , and your friends are so cool.

C majorC
I know that I might take my time.
Am7/E
But I'm just in a funny space in my mind.
C majorC
Sometimes it feels just a bit too much but,
G+G
damn I'm just so middle class these little things just get me down so,

C majorC
I know a place in Breda Town,
Am7/E
It's not quite Amsterdam but man it's done me proud.
C majorC
Cos I'm not quite the man I know I used to be,
G+G
but I quite like that and I think it suits me.


C majorC
I know a place in Breda town,
Am7/E
IT's not quite Amsterdam but man it's done me proud.
C majorC
Cos I'm not quite the man I know I used to be,
G+G
but I quite like that and I think it suits me...
C majorC
Fine.
