Intro:

E

Verse:

          E
I took forty-five steps today:
     E
Couch to bathroom to kitchen to couch
C#m
Thanksgiving ’15 in a
B          A
loft across from a cemetery
E

Drinking beer & NyQuil in this old mill
                  C#m
It’s burnt out from a fire back in ’93
    B         A
Gentrified and standing tall

Chorus:

    A             B
And I feel like I’m stuck on an island
             E
And I’ve been more than selfish
          C#m
Wishing I could be landlocked again
     G#m
Trying to do something great
       A
Instead I’ll question my age
      B
And wonder why I’m such a mess
      E
Such a mess

Verse:

E
And now I want to be more than me
E
More for my friends and the
C#m           B   A
four people left in my family
    E
I’m so sick of everything always bringing me down
E
I’ll try not to break my neck
E
Get my feet on the ground
      C#m
So I don’t have to be a burden –
   B       A
Some sad kid up in bed

Chorus:

    A             B
And I feel like I’m stuck on an island
             E
And I’ve been more than selfish
          C#m
Wishing I could be landlocked again
     G#m
Trying to do something great
       A
Instead I’ll question my age
      B
And wonder why I’m such a mess

Bridge:

      E     B  A
But I’ve resigned my happiness
       C#m
to “lack thereof.”
         B       A
Guess nothing’s perfect in the end
     E
I’ll be alright
     B      A       C#m
And I’ll upend every good thing that I find
        B         A
But I’ll keep pissing in the wind

I want to be the one

I want to know what I love
  A    B     E
I want to hold it together
E
I want to be the one
     C#m
I want to know what I love
  A    B     E
I want to hold it together
