So let me tell you this one
              A9
Try to keep up with me
                C#m7          E              A9
It's a tale that I have told a thousand times before
                       E
This is the story of my life
          A9
And how I hate it
           C#m7                          E              A9
And all the mistakes I mull over are the reason why I'm here
           E
I went to a shrink
               A9
He asked me to open up
              C#m7                    E                A9
So I told him I'm lazy and how I just can't get things done
                          E
He said " you need to push forward
                         A9
And none of this is your fault
              C#m7                        E                  A9
But maybe you cling to the past 'cause the future freaks you out”

Yeah, the future freaks me out

                  E
On and off I feel shitty

          A9
I cannot stand the heat
                    C#m7          E                  A9
I want a scape from reality or at least something to dream
                         E
I told my shrink 'bout my mom
                  A9
And how she's overprotective
                       C#m7                   E                 A9
Sometimes I feel like a child even though I'm twenty-five years old
                   E
I told him about my dad
                A9
And how I can't recall
                    C#m7            E                 A9
The last time that we hugged we are completely out of touch
                  E
I told him 'bout my girlfriend
               A9
And how she is so sad
                    C#m7                E                  A9
I wonder if she'd be better without me, I wish I could help her

(But I can't even help myself)
