              Am               C               G
Well I can’t think of better ways to spend my time
      Am                      Em7
Than living in this life of rhyme
  Am               C                      G    G/F#       Em7     
Surrounded by my future friends, for the best days of my life
             C                               C*
 And it’s hardly growing up I know, but it makes me feel alright


      C              Am                G
If I had a point I don’t know what it was.
                       C               Am          Em7
Some days I stand on stage for little reason but because
                        Am                C                    G                              
And though I've wasted days, you know I won’t take back these nights 
               Am          C       G
I will not let go, I will live my life



Am                   C              G           Am                    Em7      
          And if I haven’t done so well, it’s living in this concrete hell
       Am               C                   G    G/F#   Em7   
Where you all love the one show, and we’re all in bed by 12      
       C                                        C*
And I cannot call this place my home, till I’ve no more tales to tell.



        C             Am                 G
So for now I’m just content to spend my time
                 C           Am            Em7
Putting pen to paper in the hope of grand design 
                        Am               C                       G
And though I’ve wasted days, you know I won’t take back these nights 
               Am           C      G
I will not let go, I will live my life



G, Em7, G/F#, Em7, C, G x2



         Am       C                  G  
And I finally recognised , the other night
      Am                     Em7
That we’re no longer twenty five
     Am                C
The fame never came knocking
         G      G/F#   Em7
And perhaps it never might
            C                                    C*
But we’re too far gone to quit this now, to just go without a fight


       C              Am                G
If I had a point I don’t know what it was.
                       C               Am          Em7
Some days I stand on stage for little reason but because
                        Am                C                    G                              
And though I’ve wasted days, you know I won’t take back these nights 
               Am          C       G
I will not let go, I will live my life


      C              Am                G
If I had a point I don’t know what it was.
                       C               Am          Em7
Some days I stand on stage for little reason but because    

          Am                 C                G
When the day arrives I must bid you all good night
                Am         C       G
I will not let go, I will live my life
