A D I've had enough of being programmed And told what I ought to do Let's get one thing straight, I'll choose my fate And it's got nothing to do with you The years are flying by and it's time I got high Took a sample of the good things in life This is a chance, I'm going to take Gonna kick out trouble and strife Chorus: E G D I've grow sick and tired of the same old lies E Might look a little young, so what's wrong? G D C A You don't have to be old to be wise No, I don't care that the people stare Accuse me of going mad Just get a long hard look into the mirror Then, tell me now who's been had The way things are going I won't get to show 'em Go single all the time's up to me So it's off with the ties, no compromise Want to taste what it's like to be free Chorus - x2 Alright, I'll gather my things, go through the door Live and let live from now on At last a free hand, no longer pre-planned I got a will of my own I go as I please, fend for myself Pull all the stops, roll the dice Out on my own, gonna go it alone When I need it, then I'll ask for advice You don't have to be old to be wise - x7 | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA C D E G Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
