     D
So this is what you meant when
you said that you were spent?
A
And now it's time to build from
                                   Bm
the bottom of the pit right to the top
Don't hold back
G
Packing my bags and giving the academy
   D
a rain check
                                 A
I don't ever want to let you down
                                   Bm
I don't ever want to leave this town
             G
'Cause after all
This city never sleeps at night

Chorus:
      D
It's time to begin, isn't it?
                   Bm
I get a little bit bigger, but then
                                   Em
I'll admit, I'm just the same as I was
                     G
Now don't you understand
That I'm never changing who I am?

So this is where you fell
And I am left to sell
The path to heaven runs through miles of clouded hell
Right to the top
Don't look back
Turn in the rags and giving
the commodities a rain check

I don't ever wanna let you down
I don't ever wanna leave this town
'Cause after all
This city never sleeps at night

Chorus:
It's time to begin, isn't it?
I get a little bit bigger, but then I'll admit
I'm just the same as I was
Now don't you understand
That I'm never changing who I am
It's time to begin, isn't it?
I get a little bit bigger, but then I'll admit
I'm just the same as I was
Now don't you understand
That I'm never changing who I am

Bm                         A
This road never looked so lonely
                               G
This house doesn't burn down slowly
   Em        G    A
to ashes, to ashes.

Chorus:
It's time to begin, isn't it?
I get a little bit bigger, but then I'll admit
I'm just the same as I was
Now don't you understand
That I'm never changing who I am
It's time to begin, isn't it?
I get a little bit bigger, but then I'll admit
I'm just the same as I was
Now don't you understand
That I'm never changing who I am
