verse 1 -
Amaj7
I left, after 8
E/G# E7
To board the plane to Montreal
Amaj7
To see what fortune lay ahead
Amaj7
It's true, I was scared
E/G# E7 Amaj7
I didn't have two cents to rub together to keep me hydrated and fed
Amaj7
Nobody thought that
I would really do it
They said I talk the talk but never follow through
E/G# E7
Now I'm 24 it's been 6 years
Amaj7
And still they all think I'll crack at any minute
verse 2 -
Amaj7
My bone, too weak and tired
E/G# E7 Amaj7
But not enough to stop me seeking out the place where I belong
Amaj7
And it took about 6 days
E/G# E7 Amaj7
All I remember were the glowing lights of cirque du soleil
Amaj7
Nobody thought that
I would really do it
They said I talk the talk but never follow through
E/G# E7
Now I'm 24 it's been 6 years
Amaj7
And still they all think I'll crack at any minute
