 C                  Em            
Yesterday came and went and I 
     Am
wasn't present
                           Dm
The weeks were laid out like 
pavement
Work and drink and sleep, repeat

C                    Em          
Upon the beaten path, I kept on 
    Am
my blinders
Continúa después del anuncio
                     Dm
don't need any old reminders
no face, no name, no memories


Chorus:

F                C
If you love it, you leave it
Dm                    G
'cause you hate that, you need it
F                C
It's one thing, you can't have
        Dm                    G
you're too self absorbed to change
          F
always, "My way, my way, my way,..."


C   Em   Am   Dm


C                       Em
Tomorrow could come and go
                            Am
and I'd sleep right through it
I'm not searching for self 
   Dm
improvement
I'm sticking to the beaten path
Here and there I come across an old 
acquaintance
some old flame, some old burn victim
I remember I need to forget

Chorus:

Everything I ever said to you
If I could take it back,
I'd eat every word
You want to feel like all those 
others feel,
but you won't, and you never will
All that you love you lose
