🎸 Intro:
N.C.
Man, if I'm gonna be honest, I...
🎸 Verse 1:
G#
Dropped out of college
G#
Found myself a whole new realm of knowledge
G#7
Down to the forest
G#7
Foraging for sounds that I can rhyme with orange
C#
Look, I'm a simple gatherer among a world of hunters
C#m
Not about chasing clout
C#m
I'd rather gaze at cows and feel the comfort
G#
Uh oh, on the trending tab
G#
Hope this won't be ending bad
G#7
Checking analytics is like working in a forensic lab
C#
Oh Lord
C#
Life's getting hard
C#
I'm too young for a credit card
C#m
And I crashed the very first time I drove my parents' car
G#
Teardrops, we've made friends between screens and deep seas
G#7
Steal hearts while teens scream our ears off
C#
You might not believe it
C#
A life full of streaming is real tough
C#m
It feels rough sometimes but that's the real stuff
🎸 Bridge:
G#
Day by day putting on a brave face (Hey!)
G#7
Playing games, taking pain straight away (Yay!)
C#
Maybe made mistakes but it's a-okay (Wait!)
C#m
We all need to take a break
🎸 Chorus:
G# G#7
If I'm gonna be honest, I need a little space to breathe
C# C#m
And I'm living and loving my life by the sea
G# G#7
If I'm gonna be honest, I need a little bit of a breeze
C# C#m
And I'm living and loving my life by the sea
🎸 Verse 2:
G#
Just tryna keep my life afloat but never quite coping
G#7
I feel the heat beneath my collar whenever I am joking
C#
Know most people aren't evil though some really just wanna watch you burn
C#m
So you're on edge and sweating, treading
C#m
Making wrong turns
G#
I'm treading on egg shells
G#
Laying on a bed of nails
G#7
Don't you take a wrong step or else you'll get impaled
C#
I'm just a happy guy
C#
Paddling through the angry tide
C#m
Online emotions amplified
C#m
I try to let it pass me by
G#
Can't keep everybody pacified, satisfied, appetites
G#7
My frazzled and distracted mind is acting like a satellite
C#
So many transmissions
C#
Every day I'm twitching
C#
Wishing that things were just an itty bit different
C#m
I know I shouldn't complain at the end of the day but it's a British tradition
🎸 Bridge:
G#
Day by day putting on a brave face (Hey!)
G#7

🎸 Chorus:
G# G#7
If I'm gonna be honest, I need a little space to breathe

And I'm living and loving my life by the sea
G# G#7
If I'm gonna be honest, I need a little bit of a breeze
C# C#m
And I'm living and loving my life by the sea

🎸 Verse 3:
G#
So I'll be chilling when the tide is low (Oh woah)
G#7
'Cause I wanna take it slow (Oh woah)
C#
And I can't sing the next note
C# C#m
But I brought a bro
🎸 Chorus:
