[Verse 1]
[G]I'v[Bm]e[C][G][Bm][C][Em][G]
been
around for a [Bm]little over [C]20 years.
And to [G]anyone [Bm]who need
s advice on [C]getting here.
Don't ask me, the path [Em]I took wa[Am]s not exactly by[D] the boo[G]k,
[Em]by t[D]he book.
I was too [G]young to know and to
[Bm]dumb to figure out[C].
That you [G]can lose your[Bm]self in all this
trav[C]eling around.
When you reach a point of no [E]return [Am]los ing touch with l[D]esson [G]learned,
[Em]les sons l[D]earned.
[C]Let me tell you now [D]where
I went [G]wrong.[B]
[C]Hollywood is [D]just another [Em]place
I don't [F]be [G]long.[F]

[Verse 2]
[Chorus] Let's go to [G]the
middle where
time stands [D]still.
Let's get [Em]lost [D]in [C]those hills.
Live a little [G]closer to what is [D]true.
I'll be [Em]me a[D]nd y[C]ou be you.
[G]

[Verse 3]
[C]
I'm [G]finding out [Bm]the ways of this [C]world can we
[G]overcome with [Bm]one boy's love [C]for just one girl.
And the only way to love [E]yourself.
Is to [Am]give your love [D]to someone [G]else,
[Em]someone [D]else.
[C]Don't believe in [D]everything
[G]you hear.[B]
[C]Growing up is more [D]than just liv[Em]ing [F]through[C][G]
[D]the[Em][D][C]
[G]years.
[D][B][Em][D]

[Verse 4]
[C]
[Chorus]
I'm disappoin[Am]ted in myself.
I [D]left you on a shelf that I [G]could never reach.
I prac[E]ticed what you'd
always preached against.
[Am]But now I'm back in my defense.
[D]That black and white wor[G]ld
we tried [Em]to paint is really [D]gray.
So [C]it took [D]a little while
to get this [G]right.[B]
The [C]guilty and the in[D]nocent are al
[Em]ways side [G]by side.
[F][Chorus]
