Verse 1:
             A
Uh, I end my day the same way it started
         A
Alone in L.A., while I grieve the departed'
                     D                             Bm
Waiting, waiting for someone, someone to change my life (Hey)
          A
Brand-new shirt, yes, it's a little expensive
             A
Oh, whatever works to put some joy in the engine
                    D                         Bm
And I go out on the town, trying to change my night
                 Bm7                             E
Mm, and doing it over and over and over and over again (Oh, hell)

Chorus:
            D
I need some high hopes, Lord knows I could use 'em
A
I know I'ma lose 'em when the wheels fall off
D
Hey now, lend some independence
A
Stuck inside the fences like a xxxxxxx dog
D
Long nights, heavy feelings
A
They say I'm unappealing when I shoot my shot
Bm
Come here, honey, show me how to do it
      (nc)
Does love come around or does one come around to it? (Oh, yeah)

Interlude: A A

Verse 2:
        A
I get undressed in the arms of a stranger
            A
Then second-guess that ol' half-sober behavior
                         D                                    Bm
Do I really, do I really believe that someone could change my life?
                 Bm7                                E
Uh, I'm doing it over, and over, and over, and over again

Where does it end? Mm
