[Verse 1]
Eb
Oh, here I go again
I wake up every morning to this Groundhog Day
Ab
Thinking about the list of things that I've done wrong
Eb
Can't even count, it goes on too long
Eb
I try to change my ways
I feel like I'm the villain in some crappy play
The book has long been written
Ab Cm
But I'd rather be just about anyone else but me
Bb
I hope you see
Ab Eb
It doesn't mean I'm not a fighter
Cm Bb
It's just that I wanna be a little lighter
Ab Eb Bb
Spent so long fixing things I've done
Ab Eb
I've got holes in all my pockets
Cm Bb
Even those holes, they've got pockets
Ab Eb Bb
Hiding things that'll never see the sun
[Chorus]
Cm
I'm taking off
Ab Eb
Going to Rio
Cm Ab Eb
I'm getting lost to find an alter ego
Cm Ab
It could be Paris or Berlin
Eb
I don't care what state I'm in
Cm Ab Bb
Gonna leave it all behind
Cm Ab Fm Bb
Maybe I'll be myself when I'm somebody else
Eb
This is not an invitation
Ab Eb
I'm going to Rio
Eb
This is not a conversation
Ab Eb
Say good-bye to me, oh
[Verse 2]
Eb
Maybe in ten years time,
You'll receive a letter from some random guy
Ab
You'll like him so much better, but then you will see
Eb
He's not a stranger it's only me
Bb
I could only be myself
Ab
As somebody else
Ab Eb
'Cause you got sun, I got bad weather
Cm Bb
Anything you can lose, I can lose better
Ab Eb Bb
Did my best with what life gave to me
Ab Eb
I've got holes in all my pockets
Cm Bb
Even those holes, they've got pockets
Ab Eb Bb
Hiding things that I sure want to leave
[Chorus]
Cm
I'm taking off
Ab Eb
Going to Rio
Cm Ab Eb
I'm getting lost to find an alter ego
Cm Ab
It could be Paris or Berlin
Eb
I don't care what state I'm in
Cm Ab Bb
Gonna leave it all behind
Cm Ab Fm Bb
Maybe I'll be myself when I'm somebody else
Eb
This is not an invitation
Ab Eb
I'm going to Rio
Eb
This is not a conversation
Ab Eb
Say good-bye to me, oh
[Bridge]
Eb
Give me a peanut and I'll turn blue
I can't even eat the things you do
Bake you a cake, and I'll burn it up twice
I roll thirteen on a pair of dice
Give me a peanut and I'll turn blue
I can't even eat the things you do
Bake you a cake, and I'll burn it up twice
I roll thirteen on a pair of dice
[Chorus]
Cm
I'm taking off
Ab Eb
