verse 1: 
C#/F           F# 
    I've got a life 
          G# 
out there somewhere  
     Bbm 
it's waiting 
C#/F           F# 
    Lined with palmtrees  
    Bbm      C# 
and only new faces 
C#/F           F# 
    If I could look past  
    G#          Bbm 
the present and get there 
C#/F          F# 
    Well baby it's worth the  
Bbm C# C#/F     F# 
shot      Just enough time 
   G#        Bbm 
to plan an escape route 
C#/F         F# 
    I put my map on the  
G#          C# 
wall in the basement 
C#/F            F# 
    Not quite a victory to  
G#            Bbm 
run from your problems 
C#/F             F# 
    But it's the only  
G#          C# 
plan that I got 
C#/F         F# 
    it's the only  
G#          C# 
plan that I got 

 
F#           C# 
  And if you try to  
        G#   Bbm   Fm 
find me now (oh oh oh oh) 
F#               C# 
  I'm in all the echoes  
          G# 
that have faded out 
  F#           G# 
So  I'm moving on cause I  
     Bbm     G#/C 
just want to feel for  
C#        C#/F   F# 
once that I    belong 
    G# 
And that's what's going  
C#/F F# G# 
on      that's  
       Bbm     C#/F F# G# C#   
what's going on 


verse 2: 
C#/F           F#(Hold) 
    Cross the state line 
and called out a warning 
C#/F(hold) 
   Not too long now I'll 
breathe California 
C#/F        F# 
    Paid my dues and 
     G#        Bbm 
I'll try to be loyal 
C#/F            F# 
    But now I'm done 
         Bbm C# 
with all that 
C#/F          F# 
    Where I'm going is 
G#          Bbm 
everyone's story 
C#/F        F# 
    We want you left  
      G#            C# 
we're left to start over 
C#/F          F# 
   It's not a question 
   G#         Bbm 
of who are we really 
C#/F     F#           G# C#(Hold) 
    It's who we wanna be 


F#           C# 
  And if you try to  
        G#   Bbm   Fm 
find me now (oh oh oh oh) 
F#               C# 
  I'm in all the echoes  
          G# 
that have faded out 
  F#           G# 
So  I'm moving on cause I  
     Bbm     G#/C 
just want to feel for  
C#        C#/F   F# 
once that I    belong 
    G# 
And that's what's going on 


Bridge: 
Bbm        F#    C# 
All that's in between a  
          Bbm      F#     C# 
brand new life and I this time 
    Bbm               G# 
But time has not been kind 
              C#      C#/F 
It's not been kind to me 
     F# 
it’s winding backwards 
Bbm               G# 
Time has not been kind 
              F#-- 
it’s crawling by so slowly! 


Chorus 3: 
F#           C# 
  And if you try to  
        G#   Bbm   Fm 
find me now (oh oh oh oh) 
F#               C# 
  I'm in all the echoes  
          G# 
that have faded out 
  F#           G# 
So  I'm moving on cause I  
     Bbm     G#/C 
just want to feel for  
C#        C#/F   F# 
once that I    belong 
    G# 
And that's what's going on 
F#           C#/F 
  And if you try to  
        G#   Bbm   Fm 
find me now (oh oh oh oh) 
F#               C#/F 
  I'm in all the echoes  
          G# 
that have faded out 
  F#           G# 
So  I'm moving on cause I  
     Bbm     G#/C 
just want to feel for  
C#        C#/F   F# 
once that I    belong 
    G#                    C#/F F# G# C#(Hold)
And that's what's going on
