[Verse 1]
G              Bdim/F                      C/E           Cm/Eb
 When you were born, you were born with an open mind and way

         G/D              A7/C#                C
Then the folks around you showed you what they knew

             B7/D#                Em
They did the best that they could do

            G/D           C
But you had dreams of new perspectives

    D/F#         D
How special, you manifest the best bits

B7/D#                                  E
'Til you start to shake hands with new folks

            G#dim/D   A/C#
But it gets old soon enough

       Am/C               E/B
You're over it and you're onto something

     F#7/A#           A
That gives you plenty more

     G#7/B#         C#m
Satisfaction and control

        E/B             A
Looking around at other people

            B/D#
Now you're alone

    D/F#                D
But isn't everyonе? The answer might unfold, wait
[Verse 2]
G                  Bdim/F                C/E                 Cm/Eb
 Now you're saving up for somеthing that just might make the change

   G/D            A7/C#            C
It doesn't matter if you're making money

       B7/D#            Em
You'll always have your brain

          G/D             C
No matter where you go on earth

                     D/F#
You can feel just as stuck

         D
Will you live a nomad's lifestyle?

            B7/D#
Or will you pay the rent this month?

      E
Oh my God

                   G#dim/D
Smoking cigarettes now

                     A/C#
Being someone you're not

               Am/C
Because it's a lot

           E/B              F#7/A#           A
And you're doing things for all the wrong reasons

         G#7/B#                  C#m
And your job's just not what you want

             E/B               A
You've gotta find your own way out

                 B/D#
And find someone else

   D/F#
To share this unsure life with

    Cm6/Eb
And not be by yourself
[Chorus]
G            Bdim/F
One of these days

                C/E                  Cm/Eb
You'll find the love of your life to hold

          G/D               A7/C#       C
You'll be where you need to be together somewhere

              B7/D#               Em
And you'll be right there growing old

           G/D               C
That'll be fine for time has gone

                       D/F#
Oh, the lessons you've learned

    D
The things that brought you questions

      B7/D#
Now a group of pointless words

         E
One more time

        G#dim/D                 A/C#
Did you work out the meaning of life?

                  Am/C
Quick, before you go

         E/B         F#7/A#        A
Could it be the only thing we ever learn?

         G#7/B#      C#m
Or do we never truly know?

         E/B            A           B/D#
You only find it out as soon as you leave

    Adim/C
And sleep forever peaceful

B/D#
End of cycle
