Fun song, and my favorite one off of this album. Enjoy, I included the leads at
the bottom, should be easy to follow.
VERSE: (with Intro lead)

Im gonna walk to the edge of the world,

Im gonna collect everything left thats scattered,
(D)
Maybe then I can mend your wounds,
(D) Bm C#m D G
Maybe then I can mend mine too.
A G
Because Im running out of excuses,
A G
Because Im running out of time.
CHORUS: (with Chorus lead)
D Bm
Ill find my own way home,
D A G
and stumble into another New Year
VERSE: (with Verse lead)
D
Im gonna get in fighting fit,
(D) Bm C#m D G
Im gonna let my liver play offense,
D
But when captains choose their teams,
(D) Bm C#m D G
Im always the last one on the side lines.
A G
Because Im running out of excuses,
A G
Because Im running out of time.
BRIDGE: (with Bridge lead)

To go anywhere but backwards

Either.

Ill find my own way home,
D A G
and stumble into another New Year.

You said, Hey man Im on your side,
(D) Bm C#m D G
