[Intro]
G
[Verse]
G
Twenty-seven dollars in an old jean jacket
Em
And there’s dust under the collar 'cause I’ve been walking for hours
C G
But I’m almost where I said that I would be
G
Just like long television this heart full of ambition
Em
Has been haunting my dreams reaching for grander things
C G
And I never really knew if they could be mine
[CHORUS]
Em C G
And I’m out way past my prime
Em C G
Looking for reasons I didn’t get my time
[Break]
G Em C G
[Verse]
G
Keep a bottle top list of the chances I missed
Em
While I’m on my way to that vacant place
C G
But I promised myself I would not escape
G
One more drink and I’m anyone’s useless mess
Em
Just a helpless man with no self defense
C G
If I’m not yours, what are you looking for?
[CHORUS]
Em C G
And I’m out way past my prime
Em C G
Looking for reasons I didn’t get my time
[Break]
G Em C G
G Em C G
G Em C G
[Verse]
G
If my knees aren’t bleeding when I seem defeated
Em
If I try to save face before I make it
C G
to where I set out and swore that I would find
[CHORUS]
Em C G
And I’m out way past my prime
Em C G
Looking for reasons I didn’t get my time
Em C G
And I’m out way past my prime
Em C G
Looking for reasons I didn’t get my time
[Outro]
Em C G
And I’m out way past my prime
Em C G
Looking for reasons I didn’t get my time
