Verse 1:
C                            Em
Daddy went to law school and could've been an architect
D                          Am                          C 
Now he's turnin' sixty and wonders where the big dream went
C                        Em
Tucker never said a lot, two eyes down, a little luck
D                        Am                    C 
Took it to the Ivies and never really knew for what

Pre-chorus:
C                                   Em
And I, I bite my tongue ten times a day
                                D
Half swear to God, I might just pray

And I got a lot to lose
     Am                    C 
So I might as well lose it anyway
C                       Em
And I, I manifested you would leave
                              D
So the day you did, I had you beat
                           (nc)
Three steps ahead of everythin'
(nc)
Lately, I wake up feelin' like

Chorus:
C                        Em
"Oh, where does the time go?"
                 D
You never really know
                            Am              C 
'Til you're standing in the bathroom mirror like
C                    Em
"No, xxxx, we got so close"
                D
Hit me fast and slow
                  Am
Funny thing about nostalgia
       C        C              Em
Didn't show up 'til I lost ya (Ooh)
                      D        Am    C 
Didn't show up 'til I lost ya (Ooh)

Verse 2:
C                                 Em
My ma wasn't raised right, oh no, all she ever knew was guilt
D                                  Am                      C 
Little did she know that's all her kids would ever grow to feel

Pre-chorus:
C
And every choice leads back to the trait
Em
Every time that I drink and heart that I break
D
It's a truckload of regret and stupid mistakes
Am
And, man, lately I wake up feelin' like
