A-F#m-E-A
      A               
It's not the road we used to know,
     F#m
they tore some buildings down.
       E                           A
The traffic's like a pack of dogs.

There's fewer trees, windows, flees,
  F#m
concrete on the lawn.
          E                         A
There's people here but you are gone.
         F#m                           C#m
And I'm fine, still swimming through time.
  E                                     A
Afraid some days I've reached the shore.
               F#m                     C#m
Make yourself free, a man said that to me.
        Bm              E    A
Now my heart is like an open door.
               Bm             E
And the road finally gave me back
        A        A/Ab      F#m   F#
but I don't think I'll unpack
            Bm            E          A
'Cause I'm not sure if I live here anymore.
       
It's not my weight that makes me faint.
         F#m
Or the sugar in my blood.
        E                                A
but the way these strangers stand so close.
      
They say my name, like a guessing game.
      F#m
"Hey, Is that really you?"
    E                        A
No, I don't think it ever was.
         F#m
In the spring,
                          C#m
when the world's turning green,
   E                     A
I only think about the fall,
                     F#m
or the frets on the board
                  C#m
a progression of chords.
   Bm              E          A
Oh how I want this to resolve.
               Bm               E
And the road finally gave me back,
       A         A/Ab      F#m  F#
but I don't think I'll unpack.
           Bm             E              A      
'Cause I'm not sure if I live here anymore.
                Bm            E
Now the road finally gave me back,
       A          A/Ab    F#m  F#
but I don't think I'll unpack.
           Bm                  E   
'Cause I'm not sure If I live here,
         Bm             E
no, I'm not sure if I live here anymore.
    Bm            E                A
I'm not sure if I live here anymore
