Intro: G Cadd9 x 4
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
It's been 10 years of investment
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
It's been one foot in and one out
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
It's been 4 days of full of shit
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
And I feel snuffed out
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
It's been 33 years of restraining
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
Of trying to control this tumult
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
How I did invest in such fantasy
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
But my nervous system has worn out
Em D Bm C
I feel done, I feel raked over coals
Em D C
And all that remains is the case
That it's a bitch to grow up
G Cadd9 x 4
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
I've repeated this dance ad-nauseum
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
There's still something to learn that I've not
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
I'm told to see this as divine perfection
G Cadd9 G
But my bones don't feel this perfection
Em D Bm C
I feel done, I feel raked over coals
Em D C
And all that remains is the case
That it's a bitch to grow up
G Cadd9 x 4
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
I've spent life hovering above bottom
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
Thinking I can't survive what's below
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
But I've known through the kicking and screaming
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
That there was no other direction to go
Em D Bm C
I feel done, I feel raked over coals
Em D C
And all that remains is the case
That it's a bitch to grow up
G Cadd9 x 26
