spend time save time
verse (Gadd2, Gadd2, D7, Gadd2)
they say i have to be my own advocate
but how can i ever be patient
when i'm just a shy, spry, little boy? (boy, boy, boy)
i’m fixing for something i won't ever quit
a feeling of losing myself
in a dimension of love and joy (joy, joy, joy)
chorus (C, G, C, G-D-Em, C, G-B-C, C, B)
but i never really listened anyway (why, why, why)
the only thing that listening ever caused me was pain
these days i'd like to think i'm doing fine
oh i gotta spend time to save time

verse (F, C, Bb, G, Finv/C, Dinv, Dinv)
i don't write comics
i write songs
don't get it twisted
i know you must be confused
i record at college on my own
i know i don't look it
but maybe someday you will come around
chorus (Am, Eminv)
and i'm in love
with the feeling i get when i'm done
it's a semi-professional one
but boy it’s nice to say I'm still young
(G)
verse
it might seem crazy but you see
i'm allergic
t-t-to the things that make me who i am
do they make a miracle cure for the soul?
could you prescribe it?
'cause building up resistance takes some time
chorus
and i'm in love
with the feeling i get when i'm done
it's a semi-professional one
but boy it’s nice to say i'm still young
i know this is a disjointed song
but if you were on the drugs i'm on
you would never think twice upon
the thought that it’s always better to belong
(G)
verse
i can't see now clearly but i know
that you're beside me
taking it on one day at a time
