Verse 1:
D5                           D5
  This place is dragging me down
  B5      D5    G5
A hamster wheel I thought 
    A5  E5
I'd be done by now
D5
Now that all my
           D5
allies are gone
  B5 D5   G5
I realize advancing 
A5     E5           E5  
could hold you back


Chorus 1:
B5   D5      D5     G5
  My good intentions just keep
 A5      F#5  B5
sliding by the wayside
G5     D5         D5     G5
  But it's high tide and they
    A5       A5     D5
get washed away with time
      B5           G5
Until everything's gone
      B5           G5
until everything's gone


Post Biss: D5  F#5 G5  x2


Verse 2:
      D5
I was flying along the
            D5
Long Island sound
    B5       D5
But fine's polite I'd
G5      A5      E5
rather things more profound
D5
I've become a rock these
           D5
days and I swim like one
            B5
Alone again barely
D5 G5    A5   E5        E5  
surviving the tidal wave


Chorus 2:
B5   D5      D5     G5
  My good intentions just keep
 A5      F#5  B5
sliding by the wayside
G5     D5         D5     G5
  But it's high tide and they
    A5       A5     D5
get washed away with time
      B5           G5
Until everything's gone
      B5           G5
until everything's gone
  F#(hold)          G(hold)
I swear damn it all to hell
        G5  
damn it all to hell


Bridge:
  D5       F#5
I think I finally found
    B5           A5
the way to go to heaven
        D5
Without dying
       F#5   B5
so I'm on my way
     A5
(I'm on my way)
    E5         D5
The harder you work
    G5          A5
the harder you fall
    E5          D5
You wake up one day
     G5          A5
with nothing at all


Verse 3:
B5   D5     D5  G5
  oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
A5     F#5 B5
oh oh oh oh oh oh
G5    D5     D5  G5
  oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
A5     A5  D5
oh oh oh oh oh oh
(Repeat)
