C

[Chorus 1]
C                    F              Am  Am/B C
I guess by now I'm supposed to be a man
C              F                 C
They said I'd find some kind of freedom
          F                 G  
When I forgot what I had a say
        Am            C
My grandmother still gives me
F               C
Ten bucks on my birthday
    Am                G              F
And she told me that sleep was God's medicine
           Am    G       C
And you're gonna die someday
   Am         G        C
So life, take all your terror
  Am      G       C
Surrender to the truth
     Am                     G              F
It's times like these, I forget why I quit loving you


Am G C

[Chorus 2]
  C              F              Am   Am/B C
I recall when I thought I had a plan
    F                  C
The sun, the moon, and stars
        F                     G     
Seem to slip right through my hands
       Am         C
And remember that failure
   F              C
Is part of being alive
  Am             G            F
I guess I let it take away my pride
Am  G    C
One many times
Am              G     C
And I know your gonna leave me
            Am      G     C
And there's nothing I can do
    Am                     G              F
But times like these, I forget why I quit loving you

Am G C F C Am G F

[Chorus 3]
   Am        G        C
So life take all your terror
   Am     G      C
Surrender to the truth
     Am                    G              F
It's times like these I forget why I quit loving you

       Am        G        C
And I don't know what I'm doing
     Am      G      C
Hell I don't have a clue
    Am                     G              F
But times like these, I forget why I quit loving you
     Am      G       C
I forget why I quit
