[Intro]
F#5

D F#m A E D F#m F A
E F#m F A E F#m F A E D
 
[Verse 1]
F#m               F
   The distance to the end
  A           E
Is closer now than it's ever been
F#m           F
Road we traveled far
       A           E
All the lights and sights we saw
F#m                 F
No room left on the pages
               A        E
We filled 'em up and painted some
F#m                      F
Though the book it may never be read
         D                    A E
Oh, by anyone, oh, anyone but me
 
[Chorus]
D                            A    G
And I hope the people are smiling
      D                                  A  E
And I hope that today and every day is grand
          D                           A    G
Oh, I apologize, so sorry 'bout the timing
         Bm                              E              D
But you know, something that I never had was the uppеr hand
 
[Solo]
A F#m F A E F#m F A E
 
[Verse 2]
F#m                 F
Lonely ship on the horizon
     A       E
Silhouettе fading out
F#m                    F
Bright lights make for dark shadows
     A                     E
The lines once defined getting blurry now
 
[Chorus]
D                            A    G
And I hope the people are smiling
      D                                     A  E
Oh, how I always wanted to be like one of them
       D                              A    G
Oh, I apologize, so sorry 'bout the timing
             Bm                             E                D   A B D
Oh, but you know, something that I never had was the upper hand
 
[Post-Chorus]
A      B   D
Upper ha - nd
 
[Outro]
A          B      D
Help to carry me home
A          B      D
Help to carry me home
      A          B      D      A B D
Oh, help to carry me home, eh
      A  B D A B D
Carry me
          A   B D
Carry me home
          A   B D
Carry me home
                    A   B
Just need a few of you
    D
A few of you
                     A     B
Oh, maybe just the two of you
   D
Two of you
