Intro:
E C#m B7 E
E C#m B7 E
We know the galaxy's full of black holes
E C#m B7 E
We don't know which ones have the pay tolls
D A E C#m B7 E
Ooh take a look out, take a look inside
E C#m B7 E
This is whole new kind of illusion
E C#m B7 B7
Based on a brand new kind of confusion
D A E C#m B7 E
Built on wise decisions, based on foolish pride
D A E C#m B7 E
And you wonder why you wasted all this time
D A E C#m B7 E
Ooh trying to find gold in a salt mine
D A
And now you've reach the limit
C#m B
But the limit is the sky
A
Oh straight up one more
D E C#m B7 E
Straight up one more time
This is a character assassination
This is a character that needs a vacation
Too soon, too long, too much for one mind
We got to step back and take inventory
You're only seeing one side of the story
And a good story is changing all the time
There is always one more sucker doing fine
One more trucker driving that white line
Delivering nothing to no one everywhere
D A
Delivering nothing
C#m B
To no one everywhere
A
Oh straight up one more
D E C#m B7 E
Straight up one more time
D
Oh straight up one more
A E C#m B7 E
Straight up one more time
Solo:

E
It's much easy to give up
It's much hard to get up
D A E C#m B7 E
To another day just like yesterday
D A E C#m B7 E
And this time there is no escape this time
D A E C#m B7 E
And any explanation would be fine
D A
And now you've reach the limit
C#m B
But the limit is the sky
A
Oh straight up one more
D E C#m B7 E
Straight up one more time
D
Oh straight up one more
A E C#m B7 E
Straight up one more time
A
Oh straight up one more
D E C#m B7 E
Straight up one more time
D
Oh straight up one more
A E C#m B7 E
Straight up one more time
