[Intro]
Drums lead in, then guitar with:
A E6
Bm9 D5
A E6
Bm9 D5 F
[Verse 1]
A F#
I used to care about it all
Bm E A
I used to lose it when she'd call
A E F#
Had a dream I wished to live
Bm E A E/G#
I had some love I wished to give
F# Bm
Read the writing on the wall
E A E/G#
You try to stand, you're bound to fall
F# Bm
Then the buildings grew too tall
E A
You got to get used to feeling small
[Interlude]
A E F#
Bm E A E/G#
[Verse 2]
F# Bm
So I gave up thinking
E A E/G#
I can't stop this boat from sinking
F# Bm
Grabbed a raft from that wall
D5 Dm/F
My thought is done
[Chorus]
A E
So I'm back to normal
Bm D
Whatever normal was
A E
And I think I'm doing
Bm D
What a normal person does
[Bridge]
D A
Letting go
G
Of what you know
F#m E
I only squint to see
D A
Letting go
G
Of what you know
F#m E
I only went to leave
G E
So if life is formal
G E E
Find me my suit
[Chorus]
A E
Because I'm back to normal
Bm D
Whatever normal was
A E
And I think I'm doing
Bm D
What a normal person does
[Outro]
D F A
[End]
