Chords

As recorded by Modern Baseball (From the 2016 Album HOLY GHOST) [Verse 1]
Em                    Bm           A
When I was younger, I thought of caring

     G                         D        A
As a reason for some to praise me, in envy

    Bm         Bm                A
“So humble and kind”; “No better person”

G                        D              A
Now that I’m older, I’ve seen what I’ve been

Bm          A           D                    G
Ruthless, ungrateful, always trying to turn up tracks

      D        A
Be it about me or you
[Bridge]
Bm                   D
Seeking out the faithful in me

                     E         D
With tricks of trust and gluttony

G                      D
I don’t wanna wait for anyone
[Verse 2]
G          Bm
When I was younger, I thought of deep space

G                   D         A
Pick me up swiftly, carry me away

G           Em       Bm               A
Drop me off willing, lightyears, long gone

G                  D           A
Never again seeing those who I loved

Bm        D                         F#m        G
It’s not about me this time—there I go, lying again

                       D                   A        Bm
Please save my soul, I don’t know what I’m doing anymore
A G
               D       E
Is it possible I’m overthinking this?
[Chorus]
G
It’s not what I’m not

D         A
It’s what I believe in

G
It’s not what I’ve got

D       Em
It’s my peace of mind

G                D                   G
Too early to see if I’m still in the past

                  D  Em
Too hopeful to be wasted time

G
It’s not what I’m not

D
It’s what I believe in

G
It’s not what I’ve got

D       Em       G
It’s my peace of mind

                 D
Too early to see if I’ll be
[Outro]
Bm              D
Seeking out the fraud in me

                    E        D    G    D
With compassion and honesty, I’ll wait
