verse 1
Dbm E
Ever since the day I was born
F# A E
There were dark clouds hovering over the city where I stay
Abm B Ab Dbm
I don't recollect clear days, mostly the fog and haze
A Ab
Because the city by the Bay stays grey
E Dbm
But that's what made it great, consistently the same
A E
Also I hated it when I wanted a change
Abm A Dbm Abm Dbm
But I wasn't afraid, back then I thought that I would live for days
A E Abm
A year was an eternity so yeah, I thought I had it made
Pre-Chorus
A Ab Dbm
But I kept it hush, kept it hush, kept it hush
A E Abm
Yeah I kept it quiet and I never opened up
F#m Dbm
Made my own philosophy, the system is corrupt
B A E Ab
Made my own decision that I'd had enough
Dbm Abm
I just never found what some say I would find
A E
I was making music just so I could pass the time
Dbm Abm A
Stored it in my mind, pushed it to the side
E Abm
Realised that there was lots to criticise
Dbm E Dbm E
On some days, some days
A E A
I think about those days, those days
Dbm E
On some days, some days
A B Ab A
Reminisce about those days, those days
Dbm E
On some days, some days
A E
I think about those days, those days
A Dbm E
On some days, some days
A Ab
Reminisce about those days, those days
verse 2
E Abm Db
When it got to May and we all celebrate
A E
First time it hit me, adding numbers to my name
F#m E F# Dbm
And I start to see, every day was a routine
A E Abm
Get up in the morning, same thing every week
A Abm
But I didn't speak, never opened up my mouth
A Ab
Pretended I was listening when I was spacing out
Abm Dbm
Started to have doubts instead of me being devout
A Ab
I would've said it loud but I don't think that was allowed
Pre-Chorus
A Abm Dbm
So I kept it hush, kept it hush, kept it hush
F#m E Abm
Yeah I kept it quiet and I never opened up
F#m Dbm
Made my own philosophy, the system is corrupt
A E Ab
Made my own decision that I'd had enough
Dbm E Abm
I just never found what some say I would find
A E
I was making music just so I could pass the time
Dbm E Abm A
Stored it in my mind, pushed it to the side
Dbm
