E5    F#m11


E5                  F#m11
Unfit to live in - just about fit to burst...

         E5
Like the banks of a swollen river,

   B5
As bitterness does its worst...


E5                          F#m11
Working on your feelings - eating you all up.

                E5
But you have to shed that shit to move on,

    B5
And let love carry you on up!


            E5                  F#m11
(It's just) Bitterness rising - taking you off.

E5                            B5
Bitterness rising - you gotta shake those feelings off!


E5    F#m11


E5                       F#m11
Unfair to give in - and never change its course.

       E5
If you have the choice before you,

          B5
You gotta take it with a force!




E5                          E5 *
 Or the past will take you - keep you from the truth.

E5                            F#m11  G#m11   A5 *     B5 *
 As bitterness rises - from the ashes of your youth!



            E5                  F#m11
(It's just) Bitterness rising - taking you off.

E5                            B5
Bitterness rising - you gotta shake those feelings off!

E5                   F#m11
Bitterness rising - taking you off.

E5                            B5
Bitterness rising - you gotta shake those feelings off!



C#5
Moments in time - finding the space,

F#5                      Ab5
 To be what'cha wanna be.

C#5
The things you never got - life you never had.

F#5                               Ab5
 The dreams that you once dreamed.


C#5              F#5      Ab5
(For the "Shoo do do do" part)


C#5
Finding the space - waiting the time.

F#m11  G#m11         A*
 To be what'cha wanna be -

    B5 *
Just be!
