| This deep, smooth rut is really | all I have to | show. |

| Eightteen was ten long years a | go | |
Chorus (repeat)

| My leather | jacket's shot to | hell | | |
| G | A | F#min | Bmin |
| But it pro | tects me like a | shell | |
| G | A | D | A | Bmin |
| It's something | I could never | sell | | |
| C | A | D | G | D | G | D | G | C | G |
| Comfortable | things can fit too well. | | | | | | | | |
|
I've got big plans, and it feels like they weigh a ton. |
|
If I'm so smart, why can't I just got get it done? |
|
Sometimes my life feels like an essay, overdue |
|
I'd ace if I could follow through. |
Chorus (repeat)
| G | A | D | A | Bmin |
| My leather | jacket's shot to | hell | | |
| G | A | F#min | Bmin |

|
Now please don't tell me only dark days lie ahead; |
|
'cause if I can't feel hope, then I cannot feel dread. |
|
And please don't say to me that I can only win; |
|
If I can't cry, then I can't grin. |
