Verse 1:
C
Days gone by the west coast waves, crash up against the shore
     A 
Of a beach I haven't been to or at least can't remember no more
   F
My love and constitutions they only get me so far
              G
It doesn't take but one look up to know how hard it is to reach the stars
         C
And I've felt my share of loneliness, still feel it now from time to time
  A 
I try to get some rest, these issues tend to fade with morning light
    F
But even if my darkness has decided where it stays
     G
I suppose that I will close my eyes and try to find another way
      A                  F                   G
Is it love that keeps me planted here or the fear of something new
       A            F              G
Won't come along if I leave either way I don't know what to do
     A                F                G
I've tried my best to figure out those pieces that I lack
      F               G                 A 
Now I feel all that I've lost pulling me back
          F                  G              C
Oh yes, I feel all that I've lost pulling me back
 
Verse 2:
C
Seashells on the east-coast, find them buried in the sand
     A 
Of a beach I haven't been to but you said you hope one day I can
F
All the inspirations you've A ounted in your life
                 G
they find their way right back to me through quotes and colors that you live by
  C
And is it through the regrets or achievements in your life
         A 
that you manifest the compass that will try to steer me in the right
F
Direction is a funny thing when tides and currents change,
       G
it's a burden that I carry one you've carried all the sA e
       A                F               G
Just a number's number cycling through everything
A               F                G
Finding what escaped you in those days
A                   F                 G
And it isn't that I want to live the life you never did
              F               G                A 
It's just for my sake I will learn from your mistakes
            F               G               C
Oh it's for my sake I will learn from your mistakes
