Verse 1
G

G
my friends are in New York and California

G
Trying for something big, what it is,
D
well they won't bore ya
Em
G
They just wanna make a mark,
D
that'll stay around
G
D
G
when they're gone
D
G
All my friends are actors and musicians
D
G
D
Myself included, man,
G
D
this ain't no inquisition
Em
G
If there isn't beauty in a
world like this,
D
G
D
then what have we got?
Em
But I don't want
to wake up one morning
D
Bm
D
G
with just a Bible and a car
D
When I was younger,
G
D

I made my mother worry
D
She said,
G
D
well, you'd better study in a hurry
Em
G
You don't want to come to one day
D
G
D

in a job that you hate

When I was younger, I passed

I had a hunger, but for what,
I could only

of my distractions one by one
Em
My dumb teenage heart
G
D
G
Bm
D
like the surface of the sun
Am
D
What if every floor metaphor
G
D
is my own kind of thing
G
D
G
What if all I really need
D
is for my head to be up high?
G
Above the trenches and the vapor
D
G
there's the sirens in the sky
D
I've never known you
G
D
G
an d chances are I never will
D
But if you hear this,
G
D
know that I love you still
Em
You're the most beautiful girl,
G
D
G
D
G
you're the bravest man there is
D
I've never known you,
G
D
G
but you know everything I've known
D
G
D
You know the balance to be struck
when you're all alone
Em
There's a need to be happy,
G
D
G
D
and there's a need to be safe
Em
D
And you'd better pick one,
G
D
G
Bm
D
that the other gets to stay
Am
D
But what if all you want someday
G
D
is a husband or a wife?
Am
D
G
Just a job, just a house,
D
just a child, just a life
G
Would you ignore the poison
call of fame
D
to drink up the last air?
G
Would you forsake the absolute
D
for the relatively fair? you
