[Intro]
A D A D A D A
[Chorus]
A D
Whatever you want, it isn't me
A E
Other people's ambitions are not my specialty
F#m E
Sometimes I can see,
A D
From here clear to the ocean
A D A
And sometimes I'm blind
[Verse]
A D
The 101 is a war zone
A E
It's my main line, my artery, it's my way home
F#m E A D
It's the only place I have, left to write my song
F#m E
One day I want to look out through the windshield,
D
And watch you sing along
[Chorus]
A D
Whatever you want, it isn't me
A E
Other people's ambitions are not my specialty
F#m E
Sometimes I can see,
A D
From here clear to the ocean
A D A D A
And sometimes I'm blind
[Verse]
A D
I was a father before I was a man
A E
Laugh if you want, you can point if you can
F#m E A D
Everything that I do, well I do with complication
F#m E D
What I sing is true, but I can't face the implication
[Chorus]
A D
Whatever you want, it isn't me
A E
Other people's ambitions are not my specialty
F#m E
Sometimes I can see,
A D
From here clear to the ocean
A D
And sometimes I'm blind
A D A
Yes I am
[Bridge]
D A
Wiper blades at the Autozone on La Cienega
Bm A F#m
101.3 is just blasting in my car, if I'd written that song,
Bm
I'd be floating in a limousine
D A
Well it's a wet day from here to Sherman Way
D E
And I got to get my windshield clean...
N.C.
Anyway ... whatever you ... want ...
[Outro]
A D
Well it isn't me
A E
Other people's ambitions are not my specialty
F#m E
Sometimes I can see,
A D
From here clear to the ocean
(F#m) E A D
Slim change I concede, oh but I'm gonna never give up hoping
F#m E
Sometimes I can see,
A D
From here clear to the ocean
A D A D A
And sometimes I'm blind
