[F#] I [C#] don't know just where I'm going.
[F#] [A#m]
[C#]
[F#] But I'm gonna [C#]
try for the kingdom if I can.
Cause it makes me feel like I'm a man.
When I put a spike into my vein.
And I tell you things aren't quite the same.
When I'm rushing on my run.
I [A#m] feel just like Jesus' [C#] son.
I [F#] guess [C#] that I just don't know.
And I [A#m] guess that I just don't [C#] know.
[F#] [C#]
[C#m] [A#m]
[C#] I have made a big decision.
I'm gonna try to nullify my life.
Cause when the blood begins to flow.
And it shoots up the dropper's neck.
When I'm closing in on death.
It helps guys, but at least [A#m] girls with all your [C#] sweet talk.
You can't [A#m] all hope to go wrong.
And I guess I just don't know.
And I guess that I just don't [C#] know.
[A#m]
I wish that I was born a thousand [C#] years ago.
[A#m] [C#]
[A#m]
I [C#] wish that [A#m]
I'd sail the darkened [C#] seas.
On a great big clipper ship.
Going from this land here to that.
On [A#m] a sailor's suit and cap.
[F#]
[C#] [A#m]
Away from the big [C#] city.
Where [A#m] a man cannot be [C#] free.
Of all the evils of this town.
And of himself that looks around.
Oh and I guess that I just don't know.
Oh and I guess that I just don't know.

Cause [F#] of the [C#] slope.
[F#] I really don't care [C#]
anymore.
About [F#] all the chim-chims in this [C#]
town.
And all [F#] the politicians making crazy [C#]
sounds.
And [F#] everybody putting everybody [C#] else down.
And all the dead bodies piled up in mounds.
