D         A         Em            Bm            Em   
So here I am, doing everything I can.  Holding on to what I 
F#m             G           A 
am, pretending I'm a superman.

(Verse:)(ska upstrokes)
D             A     Em               Bm
I'm trying to keep  the ground on my feet.  
   G                 D            A
It seems the world's falling down around me.
D                  A     Em               Bm
The nights are all long, I'm singing this song
   G                D                 A
to try and make the answers more than maybe.

(This part uses barre chords:)
        G  D   A            F#m    E  D       G   
And I'm so con-fused, about what to do, sometimes I wanna 
A                D
throw it all away.

D         A           Em            Bm            Em
So here I am, looking older all the time. Growing older 
        F#m           Em            A
all the time, feeling younger in my mind.

D             A     Em               Bm
I'm trying to sleep. I lost count of sheep.
   G              D            A       D  
My mind is racing faster every minute.  What could
     A    Em                   F#m     G  
I do more? Yeah I'm really not sure. I know I'm 
        D             A
running circles but I can't quit.
        G  D  A           F#m   E  D
And I'm so confused about what to do.  
    G               A
Sometimes I want to throw it all away.


Am                        Bm                 
Controlling everything in sight, I'm feeling weak I don't
     Em                                 Am             Bm 
feel right. You're telling me I have to change, telling me
          Em                         Am         Bm
to act my age. But if all that I can do is just sit and
           Em                             Am 
watch time go, then I'll have to say goodbye. Life's too 
Bm                Em             Loud F  Loud G
short to watch it fly, so watch it flyyyyyyyyyy.
