Rio

          Eb
Oh, here I go again

I wake up every morning to this 
Groundhog Day
Thinking about the list of things 
     Ab
that I've done wrong
                            Eb
Can't even count, it goes on too 
long

         Eb
I try to change my ways

I feel like I'm the villain in some 
crappy play

The book has long been written
        Ab                         
But I'd rather be just about anyone
 Cm
 else but me
    Bb
I hope you see

 Ab                    Eb
It doesn't mean I'm not a fighter
  Cm                    Bb
It's just that I wanna be a little 
lighter
Ab             Eb               
Spent so long fixing things I've 
Bb
done
Ab               Eb
I've got holes in all my pockets
Cm                 Bb
Even those holes, they've got 
pockets
Ab                    Eb         
Hiding things that'll never see 
     Bb
the sun


[Chorus]
              Cm
I'm taking off
Ab          Eb
Going to Rio
            Cm      Ab            
I'm getting lost to find an alter 
  Eb
ego
            Cm             Ab
It could be Paris or Berlin
         Eb
I don't care what state I'm in
      Cm       Ab        Bb
Gonna leave it all behind
      Cm            Ab      
Maybe I'll be myself when I'm 
      Fm        Bb
somebody else

                Eb

Ab                 Eb
I'm going to Rio

Say good-bye to me, oh


[Verse 2]
          Eb
Maybe in ten years time,

You'll receive a letter from some 
random guy
You'll like him so much better, but 
     Ab
then you will see
                        Eb
He's not a stranger it's only me
              Bb
I could only be myself
          Ab
As somebody else

Ab                    Eb
'Cause you got sun, I got bad 
weather
  Cm                    Bb
Anything you can lose, I can lose 
better
Ab             Eb               
Did my best with what life gave to 
Bb
me
Ab               Eb
I've got holes in all my pockets
Cm                 Bb
Even those holes, they've got 
pockets
Ab                    Eb         
Hiding things that I sure want to
     Bb
 leave


[Chorus]
              Cm

[Bridge]
Eb
Give me a peanut and I'll turn blue

I can't even eat the things you do

Bake you a cake, and I'll burn it up
 twice

I roll thirteen on a pair of dice

Give me a peanut and I'll turn blue

I can't even eat the things you do

Bake you a cake, and I'll burn it up
 twice

I roll thirteen on a pair of dice
