Found leaving them isn’t so easy 
C                          Cmaj7 
Even when i’m so sick of the drive

And i know i’ve grown to a new person 
    Cmaj7/G

C/G 
Take me 
Cmaj7 
And shake me awake 
Am 
Throw me into it 
                Cmaj7/G 
I’ll cease all my movements, 
                Cmaj7 
My marching in place 
Cmaj7 
Cuz it’s just 
C/G 
Artistry, starving, apartaments, parking fees 
Cmaj7 
Far away common place, oppulance , taunting me 
Am                  Cmaj7/G                 Cmaj7 
How do you learn to admit that you really know nothing
