Strum
D-DU-UDU
So  here I am,  doing everything  I can.  Holding on  to what I
am,  pretending I'm  a superman.
I'm  trying to keep the  ground on my feet.
 It seems  the world's falling  down around  me.
The  nights are all long, I'm  singing this song
 to try  and make the answers  more than maybe.
 And I'm so con-fused,  about  what  to do,  sometimes  I wanna
throw  it all away.
So  here I am,  looking older  all the  time. Growing  older
 all the time,  feeling younger  in my mind.
And  here I am,  doin everything  I can,  holdin on  to what I  am, pretending
I'm  a super man.
 (play slower)
I'm  trying to sleep.  I lost count of  sheep.
 My mind  is racing faster  every minute.  What could
 I do more?  Yeah  I'm really not sure.  I know  I'm
 running circles  but I can't  quit.
 And I'm so confused  about  what  to do.
 Sometimes  I want to throw  it all away.  (kinda cut it off here)
Controlling  everything in sight,  I'm feeling weak I don't
 feel right.  You're telling me I have to change,  telling  me
 to act my age.  But if all  that I can do  is just sit  and
 watch time go,  then I'll have to say goodbye.  Life's too
short  to watch it fly,  so watch it fly.
 OPTIONAL
 end on either a D a Bm or Fm depending on what you like better
