                                         From the first cry of a babe

E
From the first cry of a babe

         A      E           E*  E
'Til the age of twenty-five

E
I searched my soul to find myself

    A                E     E* E**
But I'm still unrecognized

A                B
One-way streets, walls of concrete

G#m                          C#m A
Two restless feet's all I've got.....

   E              D
Oh Lord, I'm so afraid.....

  E                            E**
A third of my life is shot.....

B
And I get out of breath

E                          A
Watching the world spin so fast

   E                 C#m
My future becomes my past

   E                 A
My mind gets hung so bad

           B                 E*
That I get out of breath......

E
It's all right for the successful

   A                       E*  E
To tell you "Take your time

E
Have patience, understanding"

          A             E     E* E**
While the suicide rates climb

  A               B
I work all day to try and pay back

G#m                 C#m A
Debts that won't go down....

  E                  D
I can't say that I'm lost......

       E                          E**
No!!!, I just ain't been found....

B
And I get out of breath

E                          A
Watching the world spin so fast

   E                 C#m
My future becomes my past

   E                 A
My mind gets hung so bad

           B                 E*
That I get out of breath......

E
People spend more time

          A                   E    E*  E
Asking forgiveness than being good

E
Everyone's out stealing

   A                      E     E* E**
Or home planning how they could

A                B
Double standards make good band aids

G#m                  C#m A
That strip us of our pride......

    E              D
Our morals have decayed, yeah

    E                      E**
And this I cannot bide......

B
And I get out of breath

E                          A
Watching the world spin so fast

   E                 C#m
My future becomes my past

   E                 A
My mind gets hung so bad

           B                 E*
That I get out of breath......
