Tom: G

Verse 1: 
G          B7            Em      C 
I?ve got a shoebox underneath my arm,  
G               B7              Em      C 
Yeah, its been draggin? me down way too long. 
G           B7                Em          C 
Filled with empty dreams that never came true 
G        B7             Em     C 
I bet we all have got a box or two. 
Em           G     Am                      C          B7       
(I?m letting go) 
                Of all the things that are holding me down 
Em           G              Am                       C       B7       
 (Now that I know) 
                 There?s so much for me than what?s come before 
C7                    B7                     
I?ve done made up my mind 
C7                   B7                     
Not wasting no more time 
C7                B7   D                     
I?m leaving it behind   
Verse 2: 
G            B7                   Em         C 
I?m tired of thinking ?bout what might have been 
G            B7                 Em       C  
How I could change my life and live it again 
G             B7            Em     C 
That?s just a lie trying to run me down 
G         B7               Em         C 
My better days are all in front of me now.
