GD
So you ask for my opinion
CG
Well what is there to say
GD
To be honest and just foolish
CG
Won't make you wanna stay
GD
You've got to go on and get moving
CG
And I can't do that for you
GDCG
Got so many plans and so much you want to do
GDCGDC
Love is tough, time is rough
GDCGDCGDCGDG
Love is tough, time is rough on me
GD
Well I see you've got your bible
CG
Your delusion imagery
GD
Well I don't need your eternity
CG
Or your meaning to feel free
GD
I just live because I love to
CG
And that's enough you see
GD
So don't come preach about morality
CG
That's just human sense to me
GDCGDC
Love is tough, time is rough
GDCGDCGDC
Love is tough, time is rough on me
GDGGDC
On me-eeee .. on me-eee ...

Verse:
F#mA
I don't want to wait anymore I'm tired of looking for answers
EF#m
Take me some place where there's music and there's laughter
F#mA
I don't know if I'm scared of dying but I'm scared of living
too fast, too slow
EF#m
Regret, remorse, hold on, oh no I've got to go
F#mA
There's no starting over, no new beginnings, time races on
EF#m
And you've just gotta keep on keeping on
F#mA
Gotta keep on going, looking straight out on the road
EF#m
Can't worry 'bout what's behind you or what's coming for you
further up the road
F#mA
I try not to hold on to what is gone, I try to do right
what is wrong
EF#m
I try to keep on keeping on
AEF#m
Yeah I just keep on keeping on
Chorus:
DA
I hear a voice calling
EF#m
Calling out for me

These shackles I've made in an attempt to be free

Be it for reason, be it for love

I won't take the easy road

Verse:
F#mA
I've woken up in a hotel room, my worries as big as the moon
EF#m
Having no idea who or what or where I am

EF#m
There's hope, there's a silver lining
AEF#m
Show me my silver lining
AEF#m
Show me my silver lining
Chorus:
DA
I hear a voice calling
EF#m
Calling out for me
