[VERSE 1]
E
Hey Mr. cage man let me get a fresh breath
Cherry bomb head strong I could fake my own death
A
Hey Mr. fate man shuffle me a ninth life
I’ve been wrong, go long, throwing me a sharp right
E
It’s not a picture perfect life
F#
Not what I had in mind
N/C
Let me write my own life
[CHORUS]
E
I’ve got this place
A
That I’ve filled with empty space
B E
Oh I’m trying not to face what I’ve done
My hopeless opus
A
I’m in this race and I’m hoping just to place
B E
Oh I’m trying not to face what’s becoming
My hopeless opus
[VERSE 2]
E
Hey Mr. safe man hustle me an okay
I could slide take a dive take it for the home team
A
Hey Mr. postman slip me one more green note
I’ve been low hit the floor looking just to make broke
E
It’s not a picture perfect life
F#
Not what I had in mind
N/C
Let me write my own line
[CHORUS]
E
I’ve got this place
A
That I’ve filled with empty space
B E
Oh I’m trying not to face what I’ve done
My hopeless opus
A
I’m in this race and I’m hoping just to place
B E
Oh I’m trying not to face what’s becoming
My hopeless opus
