While most of this song is on piano, it is really a beautiful song on guitar as well, acoustic only please =P
Dm Bb
Thought I might get a rocket ride
F
When I was a child,
C
But it was a lie
Dm Bb F A
That I told myself when I needed something good.
Dm Bb
At 17 had a better dream
F C
Now I'm 33, and it isn't me.
Dm Bb A
But I'd think of something better if I could.
Gm Am
All my friends and lovers
Dm Asus2 F G
Will leave me behind,
Bb F A
And I'm still looking for a girl.
Gm Am
One way or another
Dm G Bb
I'm just hoping to find a way
F Bb
To put my feet out in the world.
Dm Bb
Caught some grief from a falling leaf
F C
As she tumbled into the dirty ground,
Dm Bb F A
And said I should have put her back there if I could.
Dm Bb
Well everyone needs a better day,
F C
And I'm tryin' to find me a better way.
Dm Bb A
To get through the things I do and the things I should.
Gm Am
All my friends and lovers
Dm Asus2 F G
Will leave me alone.
Bb F A
To try to have a little fun.
Gm Am
One way or another
Dm Asus2 F G
I just wish I had known
Bb F Bb F
To go out walking in the sun.
Bb F G# Bb
To find out if you were the one.
G# Bb
Do you wanna come a little closer now
G#Bb
Do you wanna dance with me?
G# Bb
Would you want it a little hotter now?
AmBb
Can you see her waiting there?
Am Bb
Can you see her she's almost there?
AmBb
can you see her waiting there for someone like me?
F Bb

Dm Bb
Well all you want is a beauty queen,
F
not a superstar,
C
But everybody's dream machine.
Dm Bb F A
All you want is a place to lay your head.
Dm Bb
You go to sleep dreamin' how you would
F C
Be a different kind if you thought you could,
Dm BbA
But you come awake the way you are instead.
Gm Am
All my friends and lovers,
Dm Asus2 F G
They shine like the sun.
BbF A
Well I just turn and walk away.
Gm Am
One way or another
Dm Asus2 F G
I'm not comin' undone.
Bb F Bb
I'm just waiting for the day.
