[Intro] Bass
D F#m Em Bm  x4


[Verse 1]
D        F#m
  It's a waste of time
Em       Bm
  It's a race that can't be
D            F#m
won Call the whole thing off
Em            Bm
  Well that's easier said than
D          F#m            Em
done And I try to shut it out
      Bm                 D
And I think I've figured out
        F#m           Em
That it makes no sense  to
   Bm
compare what I've done


[Chorus 1]
G  Bm A D
Now      So what do I
   G        Bm  A D
do now that I'm alone?
          Bm
I've been building up
    G
and tearing down And
A
looking for what
             G    Bm A D
never can be found
                G
So what do I do now
     Bm  A D
that I'm alone?
      Bm
God I tried so
hard to get here
              C
But still I'm averaged
                D    F#m Em Bm
out Graded on a curve


[Verse 2]
D         F#m        Em
  Put the blinders on  and
  Bm               D
believe in someone else
           F#m
You're not what they want
Em        Bm
  that's exactly what they

D             F#m
sell And it's all been
     Em
preordained but it's
Bm              D
never quite the same
            F#m
Once you've figured out
Em        Bm
  that it makes no sense at all


[Chorus 2]
G  Bm A D
         So what do I
   G        Bm  A D
do now that I'm alone?
          Bm
I've been building up
    G
and tearing down And
A
looking for what
             G    Bm A D
never can be found
                G
So what do I do now
     Bm  A D
that I'm alone?
      Bm
God I tried so
hard to get here
              C
But still I'm averaged
out Graded on a curve


[Chorus 3]
G Em      Bm
    And I don't care if I'm
    A                G    Em
the one who makes mistakes
      D
And I don't care how long
A                G   Em
this is going to take
        D
Does it really matter
A
how you played the
G   Em     D
game  When you were
      A
never really in it
