Key: A
Introduction: A C#m7 Bm7 A
A
Hey man, the story's getting old
C#m7
Big lies, they always have been told
Bm7 A
But right now you face another man
A
This time I turn the page around
C#m7
No rhyme, no reason to be found
Bm7 A
Why should I play the fool again
G D A
I keep on running in circles
G D E
In a crazy human race that never ends
A E
I was never taking more than I needed
D A
Always standing at the end of the line
A E
Waiting for my turn to succeed it
D C#m Bm
But it's hard to keep playing the part
When there's nothing left at all
A
How come we always run for more
C#m7
The rich is stealing from the poor
Bm7 A
How come we're never satisfied
A
Don't know what I?m afraid to loose
C#m7
Somehow I'm not allowed to choose
Bm7 A
God knows I've never really tried
G D A
And still we're running in circles
G D E
In a crazy human race that never ends
A E
Oh, I was never taking more than I needed
D A
Always standing at the end of the line
A E
Waiting for my turn to succeed it
D C#m Bm
But it's hard to keep playing the part
When there's nothing left at all
A
Hey man, the story's getting old
C#m7
Big lies, they've always have been told
Bm7
And right now you face another man
A E
I was never taking more than I needed
D A
Always standing at the end of the line
A
Waiting for my turn to succeed it
D C#m Bm
But it's hard to keep playing the part
D C#m Bm
It's so hard to keep playing the part
D C#m Bm
It's so hard to keep playing the part
When there's nothing left at all
