[Primeira Parte]

A2
Well I've tried to live like
                 A         D
The way that you wanted me to
      F#m          E
Never needed the proof
     C#m           B
Just followed the rules
A2
I pick up all the pieces
               A        D
And I move my feet as fast as I can
           F#m        E
I'm always falling behind
     C#m           B
Just float in the lines
A2                                     A        D
You want more and ambition's taken its toll on you
              F#m    E        C#m
Well hey your confidence is fading
B
With your youth

[Pré-Refrão]

D
And you say
       A                      E       D
That dreamers always get what they desire
 D
Well I've found
     A                         E
The more I want, the less I've got

[Refrão]

   D
Is this the life you've been waiting for?
A           E                   D
 Or are you hoping that you'll be
                                   
Where you want with a little more?

[Segunda Parte]

A2               A       D
You're coughing blood again
                 F#m          E
I know 'cause I clean up the mess
      C#m      B
Every now and then
A2
Fold the line along the seam
                   A     D
Force a smile and never say what you mean
              F#m        E
You're in the promised land
           C#m     B
In someone else's dream
A2
If you want more and you'll get there
                A        D
Throw a quarter in the well
      F#m           E
It's okay, you're fine
  C#m       B
Ambition's not a crime

[Pré-Refrão]

D
And you say
       A                      E       D

 D
Well I've found
     A                         E
The more I want, the less I've got
