E:---3--2--0---
on the sixth string in between strummings.
Capo on 5th fret
G: 320033
Em: 022000
C: 032010
D: 000232
Dsus4: 000233
G Em C D Dsus4 G
G
I sometimes lose my faith in luck
Em
I don't know what I want to be when I grow up
C D Dsus4 G
I just count the rain Wearing the floor through the boards again
G
I wish I could find a soul to steal
Em
I could be the engine, you could be the wheel
C D Dsus4 G
and we could drive it home, and never have to worry about being alone
C Em
Oooh, follow my tracks
D Dsus4 G
See all the times I should have turned back
C Em
Oooh, I wept alone
D Dsus4 G
I know what it means to be on my own
Em C
Oooh, the things I've known
D Dsus4 G
Looks like I'm taking the hard way home
Em C
Oooh, the seeds I've sown
D Dsus4 G
Taking the hard way home
D Dsus4 G
Taking the hard way home
G
I never did learn how to follow the rules
Em
I never was good at sleeping while the moon was full
C D Dsus4 G
I just lie and burn Wreck my mind while the planet turns
G
I sometimes wish I could start again
Em
I'd try and do the right things every now and then
C D Dsus4 G
I'd step in line, that's what I would do if I could turn back time
