[Intro] A F#m C#m E (x2) [Verse]
A                          F#m                    
In vibrant hues and subtle brush strokes of memory

Bm                           E                      
The life I've painted I've sold for a quick twenty

A                            F#m                        
It's on display now for the privileged and the wealthy

Bm                      E                   
God, I despise their reassuring, lying eyes

A                                 F#m             
Our home stands tall behind that foreclosure sign

Bm                 E                      
Everything in boxes from another lifetime

A                            F#m   
Continental breakfast in the lobby

Bm                         E 
But they're always out of coffee
[Chorus]
A  F#m    C#m                      E                   A
..........Only a fool would think living could be easy

A  F#m    C#m                      E
..........Only a fool would think living could be easy
[Verse]
A                          F#m                
This little motel room on I-80 west of nowhere

Bm                           E                       
Why count the stars? You'll never know where you are

A                              F#m 
Somewhere light years from the world you used to know

       Bm
Like a lock that doesn't turn

        E                    
Like a plant that doesn't grow

A                        F#m         
Long for the words with hearts and wings

      Bm                    E                     
From five states over, I'm running from everything

A                            F#m   
Continental breakfast in the lobby

Bm                         E 
But they're always out of coffee
[Chorus]
A  F#m    C#m                      E                   A
..........Only a fool would think living could be easy

A  F#m    C#m                      E
..........Only a fool would think living could be easy
[Bridge]
Bm             F#m
Oh you know it breaks my heart

Bm                       F#m    A
Watching your whole life fall apart

      Bm                 F#m
While bastards dance off with the night

      C#m                                  A
As we try to break free with all our might
[Chorus]
A  F#m    C#m                      E                   A
..........Only a fool would think living could be easy

A  F#m    C#m                      E
..........Only a fool would think living could be easy

A  F#m    C#m                      E                   A
..........Only a fool would think living could be easy

A  F#m    C#m                      E                   A
..........Only a fool would think living could be easy
[Outro]
A                          F#m                     Bm
In vibrant hues and subtle brush strokes of memory

                            E                      A
The life I've painted I've sold for a quick twenty
