Intro: F Bb F Bb

Verse 1:
F
Hey Mr. cage man let me get a fresh breath

Cherry bomb head strong I could fake my own death
Bb
Hey Mr. fate man shuffle me a ninth life

I’ve been wrong, go long, throwing me a sharp right
F
   It’s not a picture perfect life
                  Gm
Not what I had in mind
(nc)
Let me write my own line

Chorus:
F
I’ve got this place
          Bb
That I’ve filled with empty space
       C                            F
Oh I’m trying not to face what I’ve done

My hopeless opus
F                           Bb
   I’m in this race and I’m hoping just to place
       C                           F
Oh I’m trying not to face what’s become of me

My hopeless opus

Interlude: F Bb

Verse 2:
F
Hey Mr. safe man hustle me an okay

I could slide take a dive take it for the home team
Bb
Hey Mr. postman slip me one more green note

I’ve been low hit the floor looking just to make broke
F
   It’s not a picture perfect life
                  Gm
Not what I had in mind
(nc)
Let me write my own line
