F#               Abm            Db    
So I tried a new direction, Ooo-ooh
                     Abm        Db
A new mindset, a new state
                       B
but running's what it is
                         Db             
it's hard when you're a kid
               F#
to find your place


[Verse 2]

                        Abm          Db
I know a gang of clever fellows (Ooo-ooh)
                           Abm       Db
we built a fort out in the woo-oods
                             B
we cuss and spit at all the girls
                           Db
without a care in all the world
                      F#
yeah, the living is good


[Verse 3]

                        Abm
but now I'm supposed to grow
         F#
big and tall
                   Ebm                         F#
seems like I don't get to wear my bare feet at all
                       Db
but when the storm is through
                     B
my feet know what to do
                   F#
all roads lead to you


[Verse 4]

                            Abm          Db
I think i've grown a little thinner (Ooo-ooh)
                           Abm           Db
without you riding my coattails
                         B
I will trade it in all again
                           Db
for a nice stroll in your skin
                   F#
just to cure what ails


[Chorus]

                 Abm
and I can see a palm tree 
         F#
from my chair
                  Ebm                  F#
so I don't really feel like going any-where
              Db
and even if I do
                    B
It really is of no use
                        F#
cause all roads lead to you

                 Abm
and I can see a palm tree 
         F#
from my chair
                  Ebm                  F#
so I don't really feel like going any-where
              Db
and even if I do
                    B
It really is of no use
                        F#
cause all roads lead to you


[Verse 5]

                Abm             Db
I always try to please you (Ooo-ooh)
                Abm        Db
I never get any sleep (Ooo-ooh)
                           B
love seems easier when it comes
                          Db
but the coming's just the first part
              F#
of having to leave

                         Abm          Db
so maybe ill die a happy minstrel ooo-oor
                           Abm        Db
just a shadow of my former self (Ooo-ooh)
                      B
I'd undo what I have done
                           Db
but lamenting's much more fun
                        F#
guilt is bad for your health


[Verse 6]

                             Abm
oh, but now I'm supposed to grow
         F#
big and tall
                    Ebm                          F#
seem’s like i don’t get to wear my bare feet at all
                     Db
but when the day is through
                         B
there’s nothing left to do
                         F#
baby, all roads lead to you


[Outro]

                           Db
yeah baby when my life is through
                     B
i know just what to do
                        F#
cause all roads lead to you
