Played in Standard tuning with capo on the 4th fret
Em Am Em
While you was gone you must have done a lot of favors
Am
You’ve got a whole lot of things I don’t think that you could ever have paid for
Em Bm
While you’ve been busy crying about my past mistakes
Am A
I’ve been busy trying to make a change
Now I made the change
Em Am Em D (x2)

Em Am Em
I’ve been riding with the ghost I’ve been doing whatever he told me
Am
I've been looking door to door to see if there was someone to hold me
Em Bm
I never met a single one who didn’t see through me
Am A
None of them would love me if they thought they might lose me
Unless I made a change
Em Am Em D (x2)
(Chorus riff)
Em Am Em
See I ain’t getting better I am only getting behind
Am
Standing on a crossroad trying to make up my mind
Em Bm
Trying to remember how it got so late
Am A
While every night pain comes from a different place
Now something’s got to change
Em Am Em D (x2)
(Chorus riff)
Em Am Em
I put my foot to the floor to make up for the miles I’ve been losing
Am
I’ve been running out of things I didn’t even know I was using
Em Bm
While you’ve been busy learning how to complain
Am A
I’ve been busy learning how to make the change
Now I made the change
Em Am Em D (x5)
