G Em C D D4 G


G
I sometimes lose my faith in luck
                                                Em
I don't know what I want to be when I grow up
         C              D                             D4 G
I just count the rain Wearing the floor through the boards again
G
I wish I could find a soul to steal
                                         Em
I could be the engine, you could be the wheel
              C                   D                       D4 G
and we could drive it home, and never have to worry about being alone



C                Em
Oooh, follow my tracks
D                                D4 G
See all the times I should have turned back
C               Em
Oooh, I wept alone
D                               D4 G
I know what it means to be on my own
Em                      C
Oooh, the things I've known
D                               D4 G
Looks like I'm taking the hard way home
Em                      C
Oooh, the seeds I've sown
D               D4 G
Taking the hard way home
D               D4 G
Taking the hard way home


G
I never did learn how to follow the rules
                                                 Em
I never was good at sleeping while the moon was full
        C            D                         D4 G
I just lie and burn Wreck my mind while the planet turns
G
I sometimes wish I could start again
                                                Em
I'd try and do the right things every now and then
     C              D                                    D4 G
I'd step in line, that's what I would do if I could turn back time

C                Em
Oooh, follow my tracks
D                                D4 G
See all the times I should have turned back
C               Em
Oooh, I wept alone
D                               D4 G
I know what it means to be on my own
Em                      C
Oooh, the things I've known
D                               D4 G
Looks like I'm taking the hard way home
Em                      C
Oooh, the seeds I've sown
D               D4 G
Taking the hard way home
D               D4 G
Taking the hard way home



G Em C D D4 G


G
I tell you how I want to live
                                         Em     
Forget about the take, forget about the give
            C                D                     D4 G   
I want to leave this town, fake my death and never be found

C                Em
Oooh, follow my tracks
D                                D4 G
See all the times I should have turned back
C               Em
Oooh, I wept alone
D                               D4 G
I know what it means to be on my own
Em                      C
Oooh, the things I've known
D                               D4 G
Looks like I'm taking the hard way home
Em                      C
Oooh, the seeds I've sown
D               D4 G
Taking the hard way home
D               D4 G
Taking the hard way home


G
I sometimes lose my faith in luck
                                                Em
I don't know what I want to be when I grow up
         C              D                             D4 G
I just count the rain Wearing the floor through the boards again
G
I wish I could find a soul to steal
                                         Em
I could be the engine, you could be the wheel
              C                   D                       D4 G
and we could drive it home, and never have to worry about being alone



Em                      C
