Drumbeats x4

Verse 1:
This place is dragging me down
A hamster wheel I thought
I d be done by now
Now that all my
allies are gone
I realize advancing
could hold you back
Chorus 1:
My good intentions just keep
/
sliding by the wayside
But it s high tide and they
get washed away with time
Until everything s gone
until everything s gone
Post Chorus: x2
Verse 2:
I was flying along the
Long Island sound
But fine s polite I d
rather things more profound
I ve become a rock these
days and I swim like one
Alone again barely
surviving the tidal wave
Chorus 2:
My good intentions just keep
/
sliding by the wayside
But it s high tide and they
get washed away with time
Until everything s gone
until everything s gone
/Bb(hold) (hold)
I swear damn it all to hell
damn it all to hell
Bridge:
I think I finally found
the way to go to heaven
Without dying
so I m on my way
(I m on my way)
The harder you work
the harder you fall
You wake up one day
with nothing at all
Verse 3:
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
/
oh oh oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh oh oh
(Repeat)
Guitar Solo: x2
Chorus 3:
My good intentions just keep
/
sliding by the wayside
But it s high tide and they
get washed away with time
Until everything s gone
until everything s gone
Until everything s gone
until everything s gone
/Bb(hold) (hold)
I swear damn it all to hell
