AmCG Well I can’t think of better ways to spend my time AmEm7 Than living in this life of rhyme AmCGG/F#Em7 Surrounded by my future friends, for the best days of my life CC* And it’s hardly growing up I know, but it makes me feel alright
CAmG If I had a point I don’t know what it was. CAmEm7 Some days I stand on stage for little reason but because AmCG And though I've wasted days, you know I won’t take back these nights AmCG I will not let go, I will live my life
AmCGAmEm7 And if I haven’t done so well, it’s living in this concrete hell AmCGG/F#Em7 Where you all love the one show, and we’re all in bed by 12 CC* And I cannot call this place my home, till I’ve no more tales to tell.
CAmG So for now I’m just content to spend my time CAmEm7 Putting pen to paper in the hope of grand design AmCG And though I’ve wasted days, you know I won’t take back these nights AmCG I will not let go, I will live my life
G, Em7, G/F#, Em7, C, G x2
AmCG And I finally recognised , the other night AmEm7 That we’re no longer twenty five AmC The fame never came knocking GG/F#Em7 And perhaps it never might CC* But we’re too far gone to quit this now, to just go without a fight
CAmG If I had a point I don’t know what it was. CAmEm7 Some days I stand on stage for little reason but because AmCG And though I’ve wasted days, you know I won’t take back these nights AmCG I will not let go, I will live my life
CAmG If I had a point I don’t know what it was. CAmEm7 Some days I stand on stage for little reason but because
AmCG When the day arrives I must bid you all good night AmCG I will not let go, I will live my life
