intro: G  C  D    G D/F#

G                          C
The roads I took curved constantly
                           D
An open path or dead-end streets
                    G                D/F#              C
Took me a while to find out which direction I should face
             G                 B            Em
Left wrong turns and - oh my leaves turned early – 
     C                  G           D
By which I mean to illustrate my state


G    D/F#     C             D      G
And now it’s over there’s naught ahead 
        D        C  D/F#
But I can’t let go ohoh
G       D/F#                  C              D        G
had it all planned out, the way, the day, I set the time
             D                 C  
Well I came close to writing down
D/F#       G
My last goodbye


G                          C
Bad luck shaped me as a man
                           D
Bad breaks tore me down again
                       G                D/F#             C
Took different shapes before I took the shape that I now am 
                G           B                 Em
The pressure’s tense and – oh the tension’s pressing –
 C                  G           D
Society’s roll, took it’s toll again 


G    D/F#     C             D      G
And now it’s over there’s naught ahead 
        D        C  D/F#
But I can’t let go ohoh
G       D/F#                  C              D        G
had it all planned out, the way, the day, I set the time
             D                 C  
Well I came close to writing down
D/F#       G
My last goodbye


                G           B                 Em
The pressure’s tense and – oh the tension’s pressing – 
 C                  G           D
Society’s roll, took its toll again
