Bm (x24432@1)          E (022100@1) X2
(Whistling)

B (x2444x@1)              AWe've (x02220@1)run out of reason
D (xx0232@1)             ALosing (x02220@1)sight of what it's supposed to be 
B (x2444x@1)            A (x02220@1)            D*        A*
A part time believer, to truth
B (x2444x@1)              A (x02220@1)        D (xx0232@1)            AWe've (x02220@1)somehow conceded this sense of self-evasive solitude
B (x2444x@1)              A (x02220@1)      D*      A*
It means way too much to me
B (x2444x@1)            B (x2444x@1)        C# (x43121@1)      DAnd (xx0232@1)I hope you know, how lucky you are

Bm (x24432@1)                      EOh (022100@1)I remember sitting back on my balcony
        Bm (x24432@1)                     EI (022100@1)was'a listening to the Rolling Stones
          Bm (x24432@1)                       ESee (022100@1)I was waiting for my dad to come home from work 
           Bm (x24432@1)                             ESo (022100@1)I could show him all the chords that I'd learnt
          Bm (x24432@1)                       ESee (022100@1)I was under the impression I was gonna lead
             Bm (x24432@1)                ESome (022100@1)kind of simple understated life
             Bm (x24432@1)                     EBut (022100@1)now I'm living in the shadows of a memory
      Bm (x24432@1)            E (022100@1) 
And I hope so, man I hope so

Bm (x24432@1)             E (022100@1) X2
(Whistling)

B (x2444x@1)               AIt's (x02220@1)been way too long
   D (xx0232@1)              A (x02220@1)    
It seems that I can celebrate my meaning
B (x2444x@1)          A (x02220@1)           D*       A*
For I am too young to mourn
B (x2444x@1)               AAnd (x02220@1)if it won't release
   D (xx0232@1)          AIt (x02220@1)pulls and it pushes me
        B (x2444x@1)           A (x02220@1)           D*
Til I wither, til I wither, til I wither
      B (x2444x@1)      B (x2444x@1)       C# (x43121@1)      DAnd (xx0232@1)I hope you know, how lucky you are

Chorus

B (x2444x@1)    AAnd (x02220@1)oh you dare,
               DYou (xx0232@1)run like a lion
   ATo (x02220@1)defend your senses
    B (x2444x@1)   AAnd (x02220@1)oh it seems
               AIt (x02220@1)cuts at the core
             Bm (x24432@1)              EIt's (022100@1)not the same my friend no more

Oh no

          Bm (x24432@1)
