D                 C#          D
I don't wanna write a masterpiece
D                 G           D
I don't want the world at my feet
D            A#            Bm           A#
I just wanna leave all my dreaming to dreaming

D                 C#          D
I don't wanna have to run, run, run, run
D            G        D
I just wanna fa-la-la-la
D                    A#           Bm
And sing it like the drumbeat is played back
     A#
And sleeping


[Verse]
D  Bm       G             D
Time, it doesn't stop to ask you
D  Bm       G             D
Why you choose to stay behind
D  Bm         G             D
Life is just begging to include you
D        Bm             G             D
But sometimes you just got to stay behind

[Chorus]
D                 C#          D
Everybody wanna save the human race
D                 G                    D
But do I really gotta scrape the night away
A#
Just put me on a jet plane and
Bm             D
Send me off to outer space

[Verse 2]
D  Bm       G             D
Time, it doesn't stop to ask you
D  Bm       G             D
Why you choose to stay behind
D  Bm         G             D
Life is just begging to include you
D        Bm             G             D
But sometimes you just got to stay behind

[Bridge]
A#
Yeah, you do
Bm
Yeah, you do
A#
Yeah, you do, yeah

G                        Bm           G
I just kick it with your head in the clouds
     Bm                      G
And stick it to the guys downtown
         A
And just play another
D A# Bm A#
song

[Verse 3]
D  Bm       G             D
Time, it doesn't stop to ask you
D  Bm       G             D
Why you choose to stay behind
D  Bm         G             D
Life is just begging to include you
D        Bm             G             D
But sometimes you just got to stay behind

A#
Yeah, you do
Bm
Yeah, you do
A#
Yeah, you do, yeah

N.C.

A#
Yeah
Bm
Yeah
A#
Yeah
