THE SONG (/ indicates rhythm):

  D5   A5 / B5  /  /   E5 B5 / C#5 G#5 F#5
I'm running out of time this time
   D5   A5  / B5  /  /  E5 B5 / C#5 G#5 F#5
This time I can't be late
   D5   A5  / B5  /  /  E5 B5 / C#5 G#5 F#5
I've got to find my destiny
 D5   A5  / B5  /  /   E5 B5 / C#5 G#5 F#5
Before it turns to fate


Chorus:

C#5 D5   B5     C#5   D5  B5
I  feel so insecure, I feel so all alone
C#5  D5     B5       C#5 D5 B5
I need something, some possession of my own


 D5  A5 /   B5  /  /   E5 B5 / C#5 G#5 F#5
I reach for what I want
 D5   A5 / B5    /  /   E5 B5 / C#5 G#5 F#5
I see it in my sleep
   D5   A5 / B5  /  /   E5 B5 / C#5 G#5 F#5
It's hard to get a hold of it
     D5  A5 / B5 /  /   E5 B5 / C#5 G#5 F#5
And it's twice as  hard to keep


C#5 D5   B5     C#5   D5  B5
I  feel so insecure, I feel so all alone
C#5  D5     B5       C#5 D5 B5
I need something, some possession of my own

 D5    A5  / B5  / /    E5 B5 / C#5 G#5 F#5
I grab the rope in front of me
     D5    A5 /   B5 / / E5 B5 / C#5 G#5 F#5
It keeps slipping through my hands
 D5   A5  /  B5   / /  E5 B5 / C#5 G#5 F#5
I try to climb with all of my strength
    D5 A5 / B5    /  /   E5 B5 / C#5 G#5 F#5
But it trickles through like sand


C#5  D5    B5        C#5  D5    B5
This feeling's too secure, it's like a ball and chain
C#5   D5      B5         C#5 D5 B5
Yeah, I know there's something dragging in my brain


D5 A5  / B5  / /      E5 B5 / C#5 G#5 F#5
Now another rope appears
   D5   A5  / B5 / /   E5 B5 / C#5 G#5 F#5
I've got it snug and tight
 D5   A5  /  B5   / / E5 B5 / C#5 G#5 F#5
This is one that I can't let go of
D5 A5 /  B5  / /       E5 B5 / C#5 G#5 F#5
No matter how I fight


C#5  D5    B5        C#5  D5    B5
This feeling's too secure, it's like a ball and chain
