I like playing without a capo so I just did the chords as they are.
If you want to play with a capo like he does put it on the third fret and play the chords that are in brackets.
Intro
F(D)
F(D) Gm(Em)
Polished my shoes, bought a brand new hat
Bb(G) F(D)
Moved to a town that time forgot
F(D) Gm(Em)
Where I don’t have to shave or be approachable
Bb(G) C(A)
No I can do just what I want
Gm(Em) C(A) F(D) Bb(G)
I wanna walk in that howling wind ‘til it scatters all my thoughts
Gm(Em) C(A) F(D) Bb(G)
Sit all alone on the river bank ‘til I forget that I can talk
C(A) F(D)
Just listen
F(D) Gm(Em)
They say everyone has a choice to make
Bb(G) F(D)
To be loved or to be free
F(D) Gm(Em)
I told you once I felt invisible
Bb(G) C(A)
And I guess by now you see
Gm(Em) C(A) F(D) Bb(G)
That what I meant is I’m not all there until I finally leave
Gm(Em) C(A) F(D) Bb(G)
Some loneliness is acceptable and some’s just out right mean
C(A) F(A)
It gets even
Bb(G) C(A) F(D) Bb(G)
The ivy crawls up the garden wall builds a ladder towards the sun
Bb(G) C(A) F(D) Bb(G)
It can’t be climbed but who’s gonna mind if I claim it can be done
C(A) F(D)
Illusion
C(A) Dm(Bm)
And the sun goes down, and the stars come out
Gm(Em) C(A) F(D)
The distance that I felt, I can see it for myself now
F(D) Gm(Em)
Boarded a train to take my memories back
Bb(G) F(D)
Make up for time that I have lost
F(D) Gm(Em)
I’ll never know if I’m delusional
Bb(G) C(A)
I just believe that I am not
Gm(Em) C(A) F(D) Bb(G)
I’m gonna work for my sanity, give it everything I got
Gm(Em) C(A) F(D) Bb(G)
Though so far I have cheated death, I know someday I’ll get caught
C(A) F(D)
Just living
Bb(G) C (A) F(D) Bb(G)
So here we go man, it’s beautiful, get your trumpet, get your drum
Bb(G) C (A) F(D) Bb(G)
We’ll be keeping time in a second line, it can make you feel so young
Bb(G) C(A) F(D) Bb(G)
I know you say you’ll go all the way but that’s not quite far enough
Gm(Em) C(A)
Someone told me that same thing
Gm(Em) C(A)
Someone told me that same thing
Gm(Em) C(A) F(D)
Someone told me that exact same thing once
