Tuning: E A D G B E Standard
(VERSE)
F#5 A#5
Minutes, running down the drain
D#5
This is where our lives go
B5
This is where we stay
F#5
In a job that really pays
A#5
So much like the first step
D#5
Maybe just a misstep
B5 C#5
Maybe just a phase, just a phase
(BUILD-UP)
D#5
What am I supposed to do?
C#5 D#5
What am I supposed to do?
C#5 F#5
What am I supposed to do?
(VERSE)
A#5
Take a Dramamine for nausea
D#5
Another pill for the broken bones
A#5
And the ringing in my head now
F#5
Sounds just like the telephone
A#5
So it's over-complicated
D#5
A shame so shoved aside
B5
Like the broken years I've waited
C#5
And the emptiness inside
(BUILD-UP)
D#5
What am I supposed to do?
C#5 D#5
What am I supposed to do?
C#5 F#5
What am I supposed to do?
(CHORUS)
C#5
Take one more on the chin
D#5
Grow a somewhat thicker skin
A#5
Let the scars all fade away
B5
Like the promise of today
C#5
And when the sky falls down
F#5
I hope you're still around
(OUTRO)
E5 B5
And everything keeps changing,
F5 F#5
but I won't be around!
E5 B5
And everything keeps changing,
F5 F#5
but I won't be around!
