chords used: C G E Am F
Intro: C G E Am F G C
VERSE:
C G
I have lost the will to live
E Am
My life to someone else I will give
F G C
And I'll fly much higher than I have flown before
C G
Because I've rained and I've pined and I've cried
E Am
I've tried to run my tear ducts dry
F G C
But I must yet to wipe you from my mind
CHORUS:
E Am
Oh, I've tried chasing cars
E Am
I've reached out for the stars
E Am G C
Upon when I wished that what you had denied me was ours
F G C
Somewhere down the line
VERSE:
You fashioned me blue and green
My seasons won my chance, it has been
Now I envy all the love in your life that is yet to arrive
It will take the fun of all that I don't got
Fulfill you in the ways I have not
& Though I appear unable I am willing to give us a shot
CHORUS:
So I put paper to pen
& From bark I'll be born again
Cos if I'm made from cardboard then I'm gonna check every box
and pray that you're hard on moss
Bridge: C G E Am F G C x2 (second time whistle)
CHORUS:
Oh I'm leaving Mark Avenue
Something that I said I'd always do
I'm moving to a Royal Road to start out new
Maybe I'll get over you
end on C
