G D
Anxious and worrying, so you spend your whole life hurrying,
G D
searching for something better than what you knew before
G D G D
and always knowing you are you and you are going to even up the score,
G
is that what you're always fighting for?
D
It's a long way back to a place once called home you left behind
G D
and it's a long night out with nothing much to say,
G D G D
and it's the things you hold in sight that you dream less of every night
G A
until you guess it never mattered anyway.
G D
And we've all got hearts and they keep beating
G D
and they keep telling us what we should say
G D G
and it's hard to listen anyway but these days
D G
we are in tune with the way we love
D G A
the afternoon as it fades slowly to a restful night.
G D G D
Everything is magic until it becomes routine,
G D G D
in your bedroom, on the road or in the corners of your dreams,
G D
and I sure hope we aren't just spinning our wheels.
G D
Whatever happens, I think you should know
G D G A
I'm just glad it feels like anything at all.
G D
So don't push me down, I don't go down easy.
G D
And don't pick me up just to see me be the boy you knew.
G D G
It's just the distance between we and who we wish
D G A
that we could be don't seem so far, I guess, as it did so long ago
