Tom: Bb
Gm
[Verse 1]
Gm Bb
When you're trying to smile
Cm Bb F Eb Bb
And it's harder than you'll ever know
Gm F Bb
Do you see anyone helping themselves
Cm Bb
Just think the road is more rugged
F Eb Bb
Than they'd ever show
[Pre-chorus]
F Gm Cm
I'm just waiting for an easy ride
F Gm Cm
Waiting to jump the next train out on this life
[Chorus]
Bb
It's a lonely life in a nowhere town
F
No one knows where it is
F
Everything's falling down, no
Bb
I don't think anyone cares but you and I
F Cm Eb
And that's the wait it is, that's the way it is
[Instrumental]
Gm F Bb
Cm Bb F Eb
[Verse 2]
Gm F Bb
I'm frozen standing here
Cm Bb F Eb
Just watching the people on the merry-go-round
Gm Bb
Their eyes ablaze just laugh like you're mad
Cm Bb F Eb
Going nowhere but where you are bound
[Pre-chorus]
F Gm Cm
That's why I'm awaiting for an easy ride
F Gm Cm
Waiting to jump the next train out on this life
[Chorus]
Bb
It's a lonely life in a nowhere town
F
No one knows where it is
F
Everything's falling down, no
Bb
I don't think anyone cares but you and I
F Cm Eb
And that's the wait it is, that's the way it is
