Am       G            C               Am    G      C 
Everyone I know has assembled here for my final goodbye 
Am       G                 C                  Am          G            C 
People I haven't conversed with in years `and those who'd thought I'd died 

           F                 C                   E                      Am 
But I'm not ready, I saw the world yesterday and found I'm on a dot on a map 
                 F              C                       E 
There's all this talk amongst us all of settling, but I don't think I am ready for that 

Am          G                    C                  Am             G          C 
I know in a few months I'll take back this song and praise the new one that I love 
Am           G                 C                        Am              G       C 
But give her time and then she will be gone and I won't know what I was talking of 

             F                 C 
'Cos no-ones ready to love a problematic kid, 
   E                          Am 
a schizophrenic mess from the start 
              F                  C                            E 
One day he'll tell you that it's you who makes his world, the next, he'll say you tore  
it apart 


F                      G 
'Cos love and luck are similar 
    C               G               Am 
But we seem to need love just to get by 
F          G 
And I'm beginning to see  
        C           G                 Am 
All the beauties of being alone, this time 


   F 
But how long will this last?  
       G            E            Am 
I don't know, I don't know, ah ha oh 


C                               E 
I don't think I'm old enough to crash 
                  Am        C 
I don't think I'm ready for that 
F                               G 
I don't think I'm old enough to crash 
                  Am        C 
I don't think I'm ready for that 


F                      G 
'Cos love and luck are similar 
   C                G               Am

F          G 
And I'm beginning to see  
        C          G                 Am 
All the beauties of being alone, this time 


    F 
But how long will this last?  
       G              E          Am 
I don't know, I don't know, ah ha oh
