E MajorE  F#m11F#m11


E MajorE         F#m11F#m11
Unfit to live in - just about fit to burst...

     E MajorE
Like the banks of a swollen river,

  B11B11
As bitterness does its worst...


E MajorE             F#m11F#m11
Working on your feelings - eating you all up.

        E MajorE
But you have to shed that shit to move on,

  B11B11
And let love carry you on up!


      E MajorE         F#m11F#m11
(It's just) Bitterness rising - taking you off.

E MajorE              B11B11
Bitterness rising - you gotta shake those feelings off!

E MajorE  F#m11F#m11


E MajorE            F#m11F#m11
Unfair to give in - and never change its course.

    E MajorE
If you have the choice before you,

     B11B11
You gotta take it with a force!



E11E11             E*
 Or the past will take you - keep you from the truth.

E11E11              F#m11F#m11 G#m11G#m11  A*   B*
 As bitterness rises - from the ashes of your youth!


      E MajorE         F#m11F#m11
(It's just) Bitterness rising - taking you off.

E MajorE              B11B11
Bitterness rising - you gotta shake those feelings off!

E MajorE          F#m11F#m11
Bitterness rising - taking you off.

Bitterness rising - you gotta shake those feelings off!


C# minorC#m
Moments in time - finding the space,

F# minorF#m           AbmAbm
 To be what'cha wanna be.

C# minorC#m
The things you never got - life you never had.

F# minorF#m                AbmAbm
 The dreams that you once dreamed.


C# minorC#m       F# minorF#m   AbmAbm
(For the "Shoo do do do" part)


C# minorC#m
Finding the space - waiting the time.

F#m11F#m11 G#m11G#m11     A*
 To be what'cha wanna be -

  B*
Just be!
