Thought I might get a rocket ride
FWhen I was a child,
CBut it was a lie
That I told myself when I needed something good.
Dm BbAt 17 had a better dream
F CNow I'm 33, and it isn't me.
But I'd think of something better if I could.
All my friends and lovers
Dm Asus2 F GWill leave me behind,
Bb F AAnd I'm still looking for a girl.
One way or another
Dm G BbI'm just hoping to find a way
F BbTo put my feet out in the world.
Dm Bb
Caught some grief from a falling leaf
As she tumbled into the dirty ground,
Dm Bb F AAnd said I should have put her back there if I could.
Dm BbWell everyone needs a better day,
And I'm tryin' to find me a better way.
Dm Bb ATo get through the things I do and the things I should.
Gm Am
All my friends and lovers
Dm Asus2 F GWill leave me alone.
To try to have a little fun.
Gm AmOne way or another
Dm Asus2 F GI just wish I had known
To go out walking in the sun.
Bb F G# BbTo find out if you were the one.
G# BbDo you wanna come a little closer now
Do you wanna dance with me?
G# BbWould you want it a little hotter now?
Am Bb
Can you see her waiting there?
Am BbCan you see her she's almost there?
can you see her waiting there for someone like me?
Well all you want is a beauty queen,
Fnot a superstar,
CBut everybody's dream machine.
All you want is a place to lay your head.
Dm BbYou go to sleep dreamin' how you would
F CBe a different kind if you thought you could,
But you come awake the way you are instead.
All my friends and lovers,
Dm Asus2 F GThey shine like the sun.
Bb F AWell I just turn and walk away.
One way or another
Dm Asus2 F GI'm not comin' undone.
Bb F BbI'm just waiting for the day.
