Intro: F A7 Dm Bb
F Dm A7 Bb
Well I don't know what I'm looking for but I know that I just want to look some more
F Dm A7 Bb
And I won't be satisfied 'til there's nothing left that I haven't tried
F A7 Dm
For some people it's an easy choice but for me there's a devil in an
Bb
angel's voice
C7 A7 Dm Bb
Well I don't know what I am looking for but I know that I just want to look
some more
F Dm A7 Bb
Well I don't know what I'm living for but I know that I just want to live
some more
F Dm A7
And you hear it from the strangers in your head from friends that love
Bb
never dies and love never ends
F A7 Dm Bb
I don't wanna argue I don't wanna fight 'cause you're always wrong and I'm
always right
C7 A7 Dm Bb
Well I don't know what I am living for but I know that I just want to live some more
Break: F A7 Dm Bb
F Dm A7 Bb
I used to be involved and I felt like a king now I've lost it all and I don't feel a thing
F Dm A7 Bb
I may never grow up I may never give in and I blame this world that I live in
F A7 Dm (let ring)
I visit hell on a daily basis I see the sadness on all your faces.....
C7 Bb F A7
I've got friends who are married and their lives seem complete and I am
Dm (A7? to Bb again) F
still stumbling down a darknened street, a darkened street
F Dm A7 Bb
And I act like a child and I'm insecure and I'm filled with doubt and I'm immature
F Dm A7 Bb
Sometimes it creeps up on me and before I know it I'm lost at sea
F A7 Dm Bb
But no matter how far I roam I always find my way back home
C7 A7 Dm
But I don't know what I've been waiting for but I know that I don't want to
Bb
wait anymore
