Chords

[Verse 1]
C                   Em                  Am
The patience I once had is running away with my youth

F
Away in its hands

          C                Em
I've been neglecting who I am

                     Am
That's just who I was back then

     F                              C
Don't need to be perfect, just happy

    Em              Am
I'm still a lost boy

    F
I'm still a lost boy
[Chorus]
C                       Em                       Am
Last year I was a trainwreck, now I'm just a mess

           F
I'm letting go so I don't lose myself
[Verse 2]
C                  Em               Am                  F                     C
Every once in a while I listen to Death Cab and think about how it used to be 

                  Em
We thought that we knew the answers

     Am
When no one was asking

F                  C
Asking the questions 

    Em              Am
I'm still a lost boy

    F
I'm still a lost boy
[Chorus]
C                       Em                       Am
Last year I was a trainwreck, now I'm just a mess

           F                          C
I'm letting go so I don't lose myself

                Em                     Am
I'm starting to be where I need to be

                F
I'm starting to be where I need to be
C Em A F [Bridge]
                           Am         F               C               
It feels like I've been taking the long way for a while now

                Am                F          C                Em
Haven't been at home in more years than I care to say

       Am              F     C           Em               Am
I keep letting my past cover what the present shouldn't be

                 G
What I shouldn't be
[Chorus]
C                       Em                       Am
Last year I was a trainwreck, now I'm just a mess

           F                          C
I'm letting go so I don't lose myself

                Em                     Am
I'm starting to be where I need to be

                F
I'm starting to be where I need to be
