Intro: G+G C majorC G+G C majorC
G+G C majorC
We were getting tired of not living to the letter,
G+G C majorC
And yet not knowing how to do it that much better,
A minorAm D MajorD
I was feeling awful all the time,
A minorAm D MajorD
She was never really on my mind.
G+G C majorC
I know you'll soon decide that it's time to be a-leaving,
G+G C majorC
To begin the search for something worthwhile to believe in,
A minorAm D MajorD
The frustration of now knowing what it is,
A minorAm D MajorD
Yet knowing you need more than cash to live.
G+G C majorC
You said don't you ever feel like human beings are a virus,
G+G C majorC
And if god loved the earth he'd do his best to sterilize us,
A minorAm D MajorD
For I know the worlds a complex place to be,
A minorAm D MajorD
But don't become a cynical as me.
G+G C majorC
A augmentedA thousand pop songs say that life's a never ending highway,
G+G C majorC
And if you're young you'd close your eyes floor the car and drive it,
A minorAm D MajorD
But I know that for every open road,
A minorAm D MajorD
You see a door that's just waiting to close.
G+G C majorC
Please just follow the people who love life enough to use it,
G+G C majorC
Use their eyes to see the earth, their hearts to make the music,
A minorAm D MajorD
Who love the world so very much it hurts,
A minorAm D MajorD
Turn that love into a chorus and a verse.
C majorC
You see, its for you I write this song like it's the one to close the album,
G+G C majorC
But here I thought I’d finish before this drizzle was a downpour,
A minorAm D MajorD
But please refrain, this aint Manchester,
A minorAm D MajorD
No, if you close your eyes you could be anywhere.
