[Verse 1]
Bmaj7            Ebmaj7      Bbmaj7
Hop on I’ll just carry you a while
Bbmaj7             Ebmaj7 Bbmaj7  Bb7  Bbm
Self determination is a   child
     Cm                Ebmaj7
It’s been so long since I have felt like
Cm                Ebmaj7
Choices made were of my own
  Bb              D               Ebmaj7
Remind me of where I’m supposed to be
    Bb              D            Ebmaj7
The sun comes up and I rush out to please


[Verse 2]
    Bbmaj7        Ebmaj7              Bbmaj7
The desert always seemed to feel like home
Bbmaj7       Ebmaj7     Bbmaj7
Barren as it is I safely roam
Cm           Ebmaj7
Never asking why I’m out here
    Cm              Ebmaj7
The less I know the better, I
Bb                  D               Ebmaj7
Feel like it’s just part of what it means
   Bb           D            Ebmaj7
To be alive but is it really being


[Chorus]
        Cm              F
So just keep on trying
     Cm                 F
This restless striving
  Cm             F            Bbmaj7
Until I’m dying, I am just an animal

[Verse 3]
    Bbmaj7
The lion always seemed to be so sure
    Bbmaj7       Ebmaj7      Bbmaj7
But independence cannot be a cure
Cm               Ebmaj7
To the life it’s been condemned to
Cm                 Ebmaj7
Though it may seem like it knows
    Bb             D            Ebmaj7
The truth is just another loaded      word
Bb              D             Ebmaj7
Hopeless and confusing while it     burns


[Chorus]
        Cm              F
So just keep on trying
     Cm                 F
This restless striving
  Cm             F            Bbmaj7
Until I’m dying, I am just an animal

This restless striving

Until I’m dying, I am just an animal
  Cm             F            Bb
Until I’m dying, I am just an animal
