Key: Bm

Intro:

C

Verse 1:
C                       Am
Standing outside in the parking lot
                          Cmaj7
There's not a lot to take in
Cmaj7
Just strip mall traffic
Cmaj7                                      C/G
Back and forth into places you've already been
                         Am
There's a winter advisory
                                C
And I really should get back inside
C                                       Cmaj7
But I know I won't miss this when I'm gone
Cmaj7                               Cmaj7
So I'll stand here and desperately try
Cmaj7*
To fit into the shoes I've been wearing
Cmaj7/G*
Now

Chorus:
C/G             Cmaj7
take me and shake me awake
Am                        Cmaj7/G              Cmaj7
throw me into it i’ll cease all my movements, my marching in place. Cuz it’s just
C/G
artistry, starving, apartaments, parking fees
Cmaj7
far away, common place, oppulance, taunting me
Am                      Cmaj7/G                 Cmaj7          Cmaj7/G
how do you learn to admit that you really know nothing
                 C
twenty something.

Verse 2:
C                       Am
sitting outside on the front porch
                           C
swimming in new england stars
C
the yard that i’d run in,
C
the house i grew up in
C                               C/G
the place where  we buried the dog
                            Am
and the roads that repeat like a record
                         C
have made me so tired but I
C                          Cmaj7
found leaving them isn’t so easy
                             Cmaj7*
even when i’m so sick of the drive and I know I’ve grown to a new person
    Cmj7/G*
but i’m just as scared as the future’s uncertain so

Chorus:
C/G             Cmaj7
take me and shake me awake
Am                        Cmaj7/G              Cmaj7
throw me into it i’ll cease all my movements, my marching in place. Cuz it’s just
C/G
artistry, starving, apartaments, parking fees
Cmaj7
far away, common place, oppulance, taunting me
Am                      Cmaj7/G                 Cmaj7
how do you learn to admit that you really know nothing
