VERSE 1:
[C#] Got a call from an
[C#/F] old friend, we used to be
[F#] real close
[G#] Said he couldn't go on the American
[C#] way
Closed the shop, sold the
[C#/F] house, bought a ticket to the
[F#] West Coast
[G#] Now he gives them a stand-up routine in L.
[C#] A.
REPEAT INTRO 2:
CHORUS:
[C#] I don't need you to
[C#/F] worry for me cause I'm
[F#] alright
[G#] I don't want you to tell me it's time to come
[C#] home
[C#] I don't care what you
[C#/F] say anymore, this is
[F#] my life
[G#] Go ahead with your own life, and leave me a-
[A#m]-lone
BRIDGE:
[A#m] I never said you had to offer me a
[F] second chance
[C#7] I never said I was a victim of
[D#7+9] circumstance
^
[D#7]^
[F]^
[F#] I still be-
[C#/F]-long,
[F] don't get me
[A#m] wrong
[D#7] And you can speak your mind, but
[F#/G#] not
[G#] on
[F#/G#] my
[G#] time
VERSE 2:
[C#] They will tell you you
[C#/F] can't sleep, alone in a
[F#] strange place
[G#] Then they'll tell you you can't sleep with somebody
[C#] else
[C#] But sooner or
[C#/F] later you sleep in your
[F#] own space
[G#] Either way it's okay to wake up with your-
[C#]-self
