  			G 
Things didn't work how you planned it 
C 
Things fell apart at the seams 
C 
What's yours is what you took with you 
         D  
What you have, has their shattered dreams 
       G 
Oh and now you're cold and sleepy 
           C 
Christ how did it come to this 
C 
Don't forget your loved ones 
        D           
They'll be the ones you miss 

               G 
And now you're standing at the station 
                    C 
Trying to take what I ain't got to give 
    D    
And I'm so sorry Charlie 
             C              D    
But I've got my own life to live 
        G           
So just call your friends in college 
    C 
And wonder why you didn't stay 
        D 
Well my boss is coming down soon Chuck 
     C                  D                  G  
He's drunk so you can't stay, no you can't stay 
 
 
We all know you didn't deserve this 
God didn't treat you square 
It all seemed to slip through your fingers 
And it all seems so unfair 
Well your girlfriend, she's in high school 
She says that she loves you a lot 
But Lord knows she can't support you 
So you better sell more pot 
 
Chorus
