This town is c

              
older now, I t

            
hink it's sick

 of us
   
It's time to m

ake our move, 

I'm shakin' of

f the rust
  
I've got my he

art set on any

where but here
           
I'm staring do

              
wn myself, cou

              
nting up the y

   
ears
              
Steady hands, 

              
just take the 

  
wheel
              
And every glan

            
ce is killing 


me
              
Time to make o

    
ne last appeal

 for the life

But fair ain't

Oh, can you se

[Verse 2]
- Same Pattern of chords as for Verse 1 -
 
They're tryin' to come back, all my senses push
Untie the weight bags, I never thought I could
Steady feet, don't fail me now
Gonna run till you can't walk
Something pulls my focus out
And I'm standing down
 
 
 
Stop and stare
              
I think I'm mo

           
ving but I go 

nowhere
