D A Em Bm Em
So here I am, doing everything I can. Holding on to what I
F#m G A
am, pretending I'm a superman.
(Verse:)(ska upstrokes)
D A Em Bm
I'm trying to keep the ground on my feet.
G D A
It seems the world's falling down around me.
D A Em Bm
The nights are all long, I'm singing this song
G D A
to try and make the answers more than maybe.
(This part uses barre chords:)
G D A F#m E D G
And I'm so con-fused, about what to do, sometimes I wanna

throw it all away.

D A Em Bm Em
So here I am, looking older all the time. Growing older
F#m Em A
all the time, feeling younger in my mind.
D A Em Bm
I'm trying to sleep. I lost count of sheep.
G D A D
My mind is racing faster every minute. What could
A Em F#m G
I do more? Yeah I'm really not sure. I know I'm
D A
running circles but I can't quit.
G D A F#m E D
And I'm so confused about what to do.
G A
Sometimes I want to throw it all away.
Am Bm
Controlling everything in sight, I'm feeling weak I don't
Em Am Bm
feel right. You're telling me I have to change, telling me
Em Am Bm
to act my age. But if all that I can do is just sit and
Em Am
watch time go, then I'll have to say goodbye. Life's too
Bm Em Loud F Loud G
short to watch it fly, so watch it flyyyyyyyyyy.
