C#
Took some time to think
    F#
my whole life through
      A#m
Cause nine to five is
                   G#
not cutting it And I've
got more important
          C#
things to do Then sit
                    F#
around like apples slowly
rotting to their cores
    A#m
And I won't take it cause
G#
I know that I'm here
for so much more

Chorus:
F# A#m       G#
Remind me of all I am
    C#            F#
and all I have to give
  Fm        A#m
Deny me the right to
       G#
lead a life that's
       F#
meaningless

A#m C# G# F# C#    G#  A#m C# G#
          My words are true
F#   C#  G#  A#m
I'll see the world
C#  G#   F#   C#
and have more fun
G#   A#m C# G#
than you
A#m C# G# F#  C# G#  A#m C# G#
          My stories told
F#   C# G#
Will be ones
A#m C# G# F#
of  ad-venture with
C#    G# A#m   C# G# F# C# G#
girls in-volved

A#m C# G# F# C#   G# A#m C# G#
         Sto-ries un-told
F#   C#     G# A#m
The streets outside
   C#  G#   F#
of New York are
C#    G# A#m C# G# F# C# G#
paved in gold

Chorus:
    A#m        G#
The days of my life
           F#
aren't so stupid
   C#  A#m     G#
anymore   So I guess
     F#
I'll see you on
    C#  F# G# A#m F# G#
the road

C#      G#
Well I guess
          A#m
I'll jump in the
van and won't look
         G#
back And never have
to see this place
 C#          F#   A#m
again Well I guess
     G#
I'll never have to
                C#
see this place again
