[D]
I
[F#m] stopped dreaming of flying [Em] by, but tomorrow never knows.
[F#m] I can hear my father run away, [Em] but those rosy days are [G] few.
I've got a lot of dying, [F#m]
things you've never done.
Time is short, life ain't [A] full, but it's up to us to [N] save the [D] planet.
I've got a lot
[G] [F#m] of smiles, issues, [Em] bills, and time to carry on.
[F#m] I've got a lot of love, you've got a lot of slums, [E] and [Em] you've got a lot of that.
[G] Hanging out there are a lot of [F#m] letters, all the lines, [A] but
it's enough to make you [E] stop and [A] lean in with me.
It's my [Bm] father, he's the one who [D] matters.
Yeah, I've
[G] [F#m] [Em]
[F#m] [Em]
got a [B] lot [G] of [F#m] struggle, year after year.
[Em] The empty things in front of me, they wash all my blood from my veins.
[D] It's my father who matters.
Yeah.
[C#] I was raised in the East, in [Bm] the sun, my ocean is clear.
[C#m] In this case, I'm a game in [Bm] Chicago.
I just want [F#m] [A] to come down here on this new gale to make the change in the times [D] I'm in.
Ooh, yeah.
[G] [F#m] It's all the same, right?
[Em] Ain't no town or track.
[F#m]
Searching my mouth, don't know [E] where I just found out.
[G] Oh, but I can't sit when you're getting [F#m] sweet.
What's the word in the [Em] breeze?
I know that I'm not the real one.
So I'm good [F#] for hanging [D] out with my daddies.
I'm a little stupid.
[N]
