Tom: Cm
Eb
You wanted that fast life
Gm
No frills till the back nine
Cm
Didn't take too long
Ab
But you knew all along
Eb
One day you'd get there
Gm
So glad you could make it
Cm
But tell me what went wrong
Did you think about whats
Ab Gm
On the other side
[Verse 1]
Eb
I used to be so damn old
Gm Cm
Never been this young before
Ab Eb
When I feared what I'm afraid of
Gm
Staring it right in the face
Cm
The next few years till the grave
Ab Eb
Or in other words, twenty-four
[Chorus]
Eb Gm Cm
Ooooooh Ooooh Ooooh Ooooooh
Ab
Who knew the dark and scary
Eb
Would be so ordinary?
Eb Gm Cm
Ooooooh Ooooh Ooooh Ooooooh
Abm
Who knew the dark and scary
Abm
Would be so ordinary?
[Verse 2]
Eb
You want that freedom
Gm
Weekdays like the weekend
Cm
Won't breathe the first line
Thought it's only forty meters
Ab
But life's a marathon race
Eb
And you can't see the leader
Oh, and by the way
Gm
You just can't break that ball and chain
Cm
It's keeping you afloat
Ab
Should've took some time
Gm Eb
Before the gun's smoke
[Bridge]
Gm
So just keep your head down
Cm
Keep both your feet on the ground
Ab
Run with people around
Eb
Feel better now?
[Chorus]
Eb Gm Cm
Ooooooh Ooooh Ooooh Ooooooh
Ab
Who knew the dark and scary
Eb
Would be so ordinary?
Eb Gm Cm
Ooooooh Ooooh Ooooh Ooooooh
Abm
Who knew the dark and scary
Eb
Would be so ordinary?
[Outro]
Gm
It just might take your whole life
Cm
Before you take a bow
Ab
Who knew the dark and scary
Eb
Would be so ordinary?
Gm
So good luck, kid
Cm
I hope you see it was worth it
Abm
Who knew the dark and scary
Eb
Would be so ordinary?
