Handlebars

G
The group were big for just a year
C
and then the whole thing fell
         Am
they had nothing to fall back on
          D
they fell pretty hard as you can 
tell
    G                              
and now they're cleaning tables in 
    C
the local bar
          Am                    
it wasn't all that long ago that 
           D
they'd be told that they'd go far

G                              C
She looks down on those who do not 
look up to her
        Am                         
she's a head above them all 
          D
although she'll never be as tall
      G                       C
And everybody loves her they think 
that she is swell
         Am                        
But the one true problem is that 
    D
she knows it all too well

CHORUS
C                      Bm        
Carve out your future no one else
       Em
 will do it for you (x2)
Am                  C    C/B  Am
I know that it's a hard thing to
  D       Am
 choose, but I think it's pretty 
clear that
          C  C/D Am  D   G
I've got nothing to lose
C                               
Take life by the handlebars and 
Bm           Em
shake shake shake
      C                          
It is nowhere you will go if it's 
      Bm               Em
not progress that you make
Am                  C    C/B  Am
I know that it's a hard thing to
  D       Am
 choose, but I think it's pretty 
clear that
          C  C/D Am  D   G
I've got nothing to lose



VERSE 2

He's feeling pretty confident he 
thinks his future's made
But all of a sudden the adoration 
could fade
Now he begs the world to like him, 
and pretend he likes himself
but he's wasted all his years and 
now he's sitting on the shelf

I can try to avoid it I can push it 
in the shade
But whether I like it or not there 
are decisions to be made
I'm really scared a little bridge is
 all that I will be
They'll tell me I'll be big and then
 they'll walk all over me

CHORUS

Carve out your future no one else 
will do it for you (x2)
I know that it's a hard thing to 
choose, but I think it's pretty 
clear that I've got
nothing to lose

Take life by the handlebars and 
shake shake shake
It is nowhere you will go if it's 
not progress that you make
I know that it's a hard thing to 
choose, but I think it's pretty 
clear that I've got
nothing to lose now

BRIDGE
C        G                  Em  
Can I be sure that I've got 
       D/F#
nothing to lose
C        G                 Em 
Can I be sure that I won't end up 
D/F# G
