Intro: G
G Am
So you've set out on you're own
You've shut up shop
G
You're leaving home
Am
You feel no need to settle down
In the crippled crook
G
Of your earth bound town
C Am G
And you've been down this road before
C Am G
Which is not to say you're bored
C Am G
Or that you shouldn't want for more
C Am
It's just your expectations...
G
Should be lower
G Am
