Verse 1:
D                           D
  This place is dragging me down
  Bm      D/F#    G
A hamster wheel I thought 
    A  Em
I'd be done by now
D
Now that all my
           D
allies are gone
  Bm D/F#   G
I realize advancing 
A     Em           Em  
could hold you back


Chorus 1:
Bm   D      D/F#     G
  My good intentions just keep
 A      F#/Bb  Bm
sliding by the wayside
G     D         D/F#     G
  But it's high tide and they
    A       A/C#     D
get washed away with time
      Bm           G
Until everything's gone
      Bm           G
until everything's gone

Verse 2:
      D
I was flying along the
            D
Long Island sound
    Bm       D/F#
But fine's polite I'd
G      A      Em
rather things more profound
D
I've become a rock these
           D
days and I swim like one
            Bm
Alone again barely
D/F# G    A   Em        Em  
surviving the tidal wave


Chorus 2:
Bm   D      D/F#     G
  My good intentions just keep
 A      F#/Bb  Bm
sliding by the wayside
G     D         D/F#     G
  But it's high tide and they
    A       A/C#     D
get washed away with time
      Bm           G
Until everything's gone
      Bm           G
until everything's gone
  F#/Bb(hold)          G(hold)
I swear damn it all to hell
        G  
damn it all to hell


Bridge:
  D       F#m
I think I finally found
    Bm           A
the way to go to heaven
        D
Without dying
       F#m   Bm
so I'm on my way
     A
(I'm on my way)
    Em         D/F#
The harder you work
    G          A
the harder you fall
    Em          D/F#
You wake up one day
     G          A
with nothing at all


Verse 3:
Bm   D     D/F#  G
  oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
A     F#/Bb Bm
oh oh oh oh oh oh
G    D     D/F#  G
  oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
A     A/C#  D
oh oh oh oh oh oh
