[G]I want to know where my confidence went
[C]One day it all disap[G]peared
And I'm lying in a [D/F#]hotel [Em]room miles away
[C]Voices next door in my [D]ear

[G]Day time is bad, nighttime worse
[C]Hope that I can get home [G]soon
But the half-finished [D/F#]bottles of [Em]inspiration
[C]Lie like ghosts in my [D]room

PRE-CHORUS #1:
[Am]I want to go
I [D]know I can't stay
But [C]I don't want to run
Feel[D]ing this way

CHORUS:
Til [Am]I, [Bm]I [C]am my[D]self
Til [Am]I, [Bm]I [C]am my[D]self
Til [Am]I, [Bm]I [C]am my[D]self a[G]gain

[G]There's a seat on the corner I keep every night
[C]Wait til the evening be[G]gins
I feel like a [D/F#]stranger from [Em]another world
[C]But at least I'm living a[D]gain

There are [G]nights full of anger, words that are thrown
[C]Tempers that are shattered and [G]thin
And the moments of [D/F#]magic are [Em]just too short
[C]They're over before they be[D]gin

PRE-CHORUS #2:
[Am]I know it's time
[D]One big step
[C]I can't go
I'm not [D]ready yet

CHORUS

               [G]

[G]I had a dream that my house was on fire
[C]People laughed while it [G]burned
I tried to [D/F#]run by my [Em]legs were numb
[C]I had to wait til the feeling re[D]turned

[G]I don't need a doctor to figure it out
[C]I know what's passing me [G]by
When I look in the [D/F#]mirror
[Em]Sometimes I see [C]traces of some other [D]guy

PRE-CHORUS #1
