E    A  Abm    Gbm    B
B    Abm    Dbm    A   B

[Verse]
                         E                   A
I was backed against the traps of my teenage plan
                Abm  Gbm                      B
I was stumbling over gaps and feeling beat up again
              A        Abm                  Dbm
I was staring down the corpse of a lifelong dream
                  B     A                     B
But I was willing it to get back on its feet again

[Verse]
                         E                             A
I was walking through my life and feeling sick, that’s when
               Abm    Gbm                       B
I would find myself repeating my old stories to friends
                 A     Abm                     Dbm
Always searching for a notion that resembled a hope
                    B      A                                B
That I was standing on the verge of something good, I don’t know

On the verge of something

[Chorus]
E          Gbm
Oh oh ohoh oh
A
Ohhhh
E          Gbm
Oh oh ohoh oh
A          B
Oh oh ohoh oh

[Bridge]
         E                   Gbm
From the traps of my teenage plan
      A                   B
I was wearing out my feet again
        E                   Gbm
Working nights for some old businessman
             A                        B
Who couldn’t give a second shit about me (I was grasping at a hope)

           E                   Gbm
I’d take a hope and a borrowed sedan (I couldn’t take it any more)
        A                            B
And I’d ride out to the state that’s when (Spending hours on the phone with the pharmacy)
                          Dbm            Gbm
I’d be pulling up to some suburban pharmacy
           A                       B
And I’d be begging them to tell me something

[Verse]
                      E                   A
I was closing out the bar every night and then
             Abm     Gbm              B
I was waking up each morning around 6am
              A      Abm                  Dbm
I was driving to the doctor and then back again
                     B         A                        B
You know, they never seemed to have any good news to me then

[Verse]
                         E                            A
I was walking through my life and feeling sick that’s when
                   Abm   Gbm                    B
I started plotting out a course to getting free again
                              Abm                Dbm
While making pennies for some psychopath businessman
                   B      A                        B
I started thinking that I might be on the verge of something

On the verge of something

[Chorus]
E          Gbm
Oh oh ohoh oh
         A
Ohh ohoh ohhh
E          Gbm
Oh oh ohoh oh
         A
Ohh ohoh ohhh
E          Gbm
Oh oh ohoh oh
A          B
Oh oh ohoh oh
Dbm        Gbm
Oh oh ohoh oh
        A
Oh ohoh ohhh
