The songs in my head they always seem to be so sentimental
And here in my heart they always echo out so clear
But when I hear them out loud, all the melodies they start to jumble
The lines I thought were the best, now seem so insincere
So I wasted no time, I thumbed a ride with a stranger
And I said, Take me anywhere but here
(b5)
Every chord I play, sounds a bit diminished
NC
the dissonance plagues me and the stanzas lay unfinished
Still I sing along, but the words I form lack innovation
so Iâll take the open road in search of inspiration
So I wasted no time, I thumbed a ride with a stranger
And I said, Take me anywhere but here
Some people think, they are always on the brink of something
Better than, what they ever had before
Me I'm the same, You know I'm a hopeless romantic that way
But, it seems that this town has been keeping me down
And I canât stick around one more day
So, I'll be on my way
So I wasted no time, I thumbed a ride with a stranger
And I said, Take me anywhere but here
