G#
I'm good to go
B
And I'm going nowhere fast

It could be worse
E C#
I could be taking you there with me
E
I'm good to go
B F# G# F# E
But it looks like I'm still on my own

G#
I'm good to go
B
For something golden
F# E
Though the motions I've been going through have failed
G# B
And I'm coasting on potential towards a wall
F# E
At a 100 miles an hour

G# F# E
When I say
B F#
Two more weeks
C# E5
My foot is in the door (yeah)
B F#
I can't sleep
C# E5
In the wake of Saturday
B F#
Saturday
C# E5
When these open doors were open-ended
B F#
Saturday
C# E5
When these open doors were open-ended

G# B
Pete and I attacked the laws of Astoria
F# E
with promise and precision and mess of youthful innocence
G#
And I read about the afterlife
B F# E
But I never really lived more than an hour (more than an hour)

(Chorus)
(Bridge)

B E F# G# B

E F# G# B
And I read about the afterlife
E F# G# B
But I never really lived
E F# G# B
And I read about the afterlife
E F# G#
But I never really lived

(Chorus)
