E A Abm Gbm B
B Abm Dbm A B
[Verse]
E A
I was backed against the traps of my teenage plan
Abm Gbm B
I was stumbling over gaps and feeling beat up again
A Abm Dbm
I was staring down the corpse of a lifelong dream
B A B
But I was willing it to get back on its feet again
[Verse]
E A
I was walking through my life and feeling sick, that’s when
Abm Gbm B
I would find myself repeating my old stories to friends
A Abm Dbm
Always searching for a notion that resembled a hope
B A B
That I was standing on the verge of something good, I don’t know
On the verge of something
[Chorus]
E Gbm
Oh oh ohoh oh
A
Ohhhh
E Gbm
Oh oh ohoh oh
A B
Oh oh ohoh oh
[Bridge]
E Gbm
From the traps of my teenage plan
A B
I was wearing out my feet again
E Gbm
Working nights for some old businessman
A B
Who couldn’t give a second shit about me (I was grasping at a hope)
E Gbm
I’d take a hope and a borrowed sedan (I couldn’t take it any more)
A B
And I’d ride out to the state that’s when (Spending hours on the phone with the pharmacy)
Dbm Gbm
I’d be pulling up to some suburban pharmacy
A B
And I’d be begging them to tell me something
[Verse]
E A
I was closing out the bar every night and then
Abm Gbm B
I was waking up each morning around 6am
A Abm Dbm
I was driving to the doctor and then back again
B A B
You know, they never seemed to have any good news to me then
[Verse]
E A
I was walking through my life and feeling sick that’s when
Abm Gbm B
I started plotting out a course to getting free again
Abm Dbm
While making pennies for some psychopath businessman
B A B
I started thinking that I might be on the verge of something
On the verge of something
[Chorus]
E Gbm
Oh oh ohoh oh
A
Ohh ohoh ohhh
E Gbm
Oh oh ohoh oh
A
Ohh ohoh ohhh
E Gbm
Oh oh ohoh oh
A B
Oh oh ohoh oh
Dbm Gbm
Oh oh ohoh oh
A
Oh ohoh ohhh
