Not to say were not fortunate to be born
C F
to a world that encourages us to grow
Am G F G
but sometimes perpetual motion moves so slow
C F
Hunger for a change of scenery
C F
you drive North in search of snow
Am
were you prepared for certain shadows
G F G
to follow you everywhere that you go
F G Am F G C
C F
your body's been decaying all this time
C F
and now it finally starts to show
Am
and are you having second thoughts
G F G
about that path that you chose
C
Now that the fire in your eyes
F
has burned down like coals
C F
to a warm consistent glow
Am
well hey that smoke has cleared
G F G
you regained the use of your nose
F
So take take a second now
G Am
to stop and smell the roses
F G
just like you never thought you had time
C
but always thought that you should
F G Am
At least for now it okay to take life in smaller doses
F
Something new has come to town
G
seems like he's doing you good
C F
And I've come to a new town
C F
yeah sure it's somewhat the same
Am
it feels good to be aware of
G F G
but still not focused on the cause behind that pain
C F
And sometimes when the mood is right it feels
C F
like every inch and nothings changed
Am G
but in some way that not for one second
F
has stayed the same
F (stop)
So you remember to eat dinner
remember to feel better
Am
remember your friends
G
they'll think that you forgot them
F G
if you only write secret letters
C F
Remember not to focus on
C F
those feelings that you lack
Am G C F C
You just might give yourself a heart attack
