[C]our course is coarsely plotted
on a [Cadd9/B]map of shoddy dreams
but [Am]hindsight will reveal
time's [G]moving [F]faster than it seems

[C]maybe i'm just selfish
i've got [Cadd9/B]nothing left to give
i'm [Am]still a foolish boy
i've [G]got a [F]lifetime left to [G]live

and i was [E]swinging like a madman
not quite [F]sure of what i felled
and i might [C]never under[Cadd9/B]stand
exactly [Am]what it was i'd [G]held
and now i [F]watch the sun descending
from this [G]weathered gravel roof
and i [F]recall the sky once told me
that all [G]lies lead to the truth

so i'll [C]look the other way[Dm]
and i'll [E]turn a deafened ear[F]
and i'll [C]talk of distant lands[Dm]
pretend [E]i was never here[F][-][G]

[Am] [-] [G] [-] [F] [-] [G]
[Am] [-] [G] [-] [F]

[C]reality beads on my skin
like a [Cadd9/B]slicker in the rain
but now i [Am]feel it soaking in
and [G]i be[F]gin to feel the pain

[C]i fight the urge to run to you
this is [Cadd9/B]how it has to be
we've [Am]gotta step away right [G]now
we're [F]just too close to [G]see

and i was [E]swinging like a madman
not quite [F]sure of what i felled
and i might [C]never under[Cadd9/B]stand
exactly [Am]what it was i'd [G]held
and now i [F]watch the sun descending
from this [G]weathered gravel roof
and i [F]recall the sky once told me
that all [G]lies lead to the truth

so i'll [C]look the other way[Dm]
and i'll [E]turn a deafened ear[F]
and i'll [C]talk of distant lands[Dm]
pretend [E]i was never here[F]

[G]and i'll [Am]look the other way[G]
[F]and i'll turn a deafened ear
[G]and i'll [Am]talk of distant lands[G]
pretend [F]i was never here[G][-][F]
