Verse:
E MajorE BB
Again with excuses and generally wasting my time
C# minorC#m A augmentedA
I'm finding solutions, just seeking my peace of mind
E MajorE BB
No hocus or pocus, my focus is drunk on the floor
C# minorC#m A augmentedA
And mumbling something about one more
Pre-Chorus:
E MajorE BB
I'm falling across the line
C# minorC#m A augmentedA
Keep punching pedals at the amber lights
E MajorE BB
And I cross my heart and hope to die
C# minorC#m A augmentedA
Unless I happen to lie
Chorus:
E MajorE BB C# minorC#m A augmentedA
I never meant to break my own promises [x2]
E MajorE
Oh, one more night
BB
I said it the last time
C# minorC#m A augmentedA
This is the last time, say it a million more
E MajorE BB C# minorC#m
Never meant to my break my own promises
A augmentedA
Break my own promises
E MajorE BB C# minorC#m A augmentedA
Promises promises [x2]
Verse 2:
E MajorE BB
I said I was trying, I really was drivin' the coast
C# minorC#m A augmentedA
The fighter, the flight, we lost sight with the lattermost
E MajorE BB
It almost is laughable, but when I chuckle I choke
C# minorC#m A augmentedA
Can't get the words out my throat, oh one more
Pre-Chorus 2:
E MajorE BB
Oh is that my lion's pride?
C# minorC#m A augmentedA
I meet my mountain then I run and hide
E MajorE BB
And I cross my heart and hope to die
C# minorC#m A augmentedA
Unless I happen to lie
[Chorus]
