D 
Well, I wish I had a short term memory  
 
 
Wish the only thing my eyes could see  
 
 
Was the  
G 
future burning bright right in front of me  
 
 
But  
Em 
I can't stop looking  
Asus4 
back  
 
 
 
 
D 
Yeah, I wish I was a perfect picture of  
 
 
Somebody who's never not good enough  
 
 
I try  
G 
to measure up but I mess it up  
 
 
And  
Em 
I wish I wasn't  
Asus4 
like that  
 
 
 
 
D 
I wish I wasn't wishing anymore  
 
 
Wish I could remember that nobody's keeping score  
 
G 
I'm tired of throwing pennies in a well  
 
Em 
I gotta do something  
 
Asus4 
Here goes nothin'

It's day one of the rest of my life

Wherever my yesterday may find me

Asus4 
stay there

See my hourglass is upside down  
 
 
My someday soon is here and now
