Verse 1:
E
   You drift through life and say:
                    E
“I’ll do it another day”
            G#m                A    G#m  B  F#
because you do what you always do


Verse 2:
E
    And, yes, you’re gonna scoff, but you
                   E
always put things off
           G#m                A     G#m  B  F#
Surely the goal is to take control

just stop being so nonchalant

  And look how all the trees
                        E
have already lost their leaves
     G#m                  A     G#m  B  F#
This year’s going to disappear

Verse 4:
E
   And you know that it’s true,
                          E
 the world won’t wait for you
       G#m           A     G#m  B  F#
You’ve got to make a move

Interlude:
E E

Chorus 2:
E          A E
You can’t ignore
               G#m A
that there’s a  door that is just
A               E          C
waiting for you to unlock

Chorus 3:
                    C#m B
It’s not just about  you
               E A
it affects me, too
      A             E
We’re all running against the clock

And they don’t look too high
              Emaj7/G#
I can see the mountains from here
                    A
And they don’t look too high
