Gmaj7
[Verse]
Gmaj7 Dmaj7
I close my front door and turn on the light
Gmaj7 F#m7 A6 Dmaj7
I let out a breath and hold in a sigh
Gmaj7 A6 F#m7 Dmaj7
Ain't nothin' new, ain't that much inside
A6 Gmaj7 Dmaj7 F#aug Gmaj7 A6 D
And if I'm counting days, dream fruition ain't what it's looking like
[Chorus]
F#m7/C# Gmaj7
But strictly speaking, I'm still on track
A6 Dmaj7
Strictly speaking, I'm holding on
F#m7/C# Gmaj7
One other minor setback
A6 D Dmaj7 D
But strictly speaking, I'm still on track
F#m7/C# Gmaj7
And all of my dreams are still in sight
A6 D Dmaj7 D
Strictly speaking, I've got my whole life
F#aug Gmaj7
I lost a wheel a while back
A6 D Dmaj7 D
But strictly speaking, I'm still on track
F#m7/C# Gmaj7
Trouble keeps falling in my lap
A6 D F#aug
Strung out again, but still on track
[Verse 1]
Gmaj9 A6
I know it's unrealistic, over-optimistic
D F#m7/C#
I know I tried before this, I know it's nearly August
Gmaj9 A6
I know I can't ignore this, looking forward to all this
Dmaj7 F#aug
Sayin', "Babe, I just adore this" and, "Babe, can we afford this?"
Gmaj7 A6
I know it's been a slow year, nothin' much to show here
Dmaj7 F#m7/C# Gmaj7
I didn't really go for it, so not a lot to show for it
[Bridge]
Gmaj7 A6 Dmaj7
The hardest part is over, adjusting makes it slower
F#m7/C# Gmaj7
So glad you're coming over, I want to bring us closer
A6 Dmaj7
The world ain't changin' for ya, nothin' to lose it over
F#m7/C# Gmaj7
We're just a shuttle over, the rest comes easy
A6 Dmaj7
The rest comes easy
[Chorus]
Gmaj7 A6 D
('Cause life's like that)
F#m7/C# Gmaj7
But strictly speaking, I'm still on track
A6 Dmaj7
Strictly speaking, I'm holding back
F#m7/C# Gmaj7
Troubles keep falling in my lap, yeah
A6 D Dmaj7 D
But strictly speaking, I'm still on track
F#m7/C# Gmaj7
So tell everyone I'll be alright
A6 D Dmaj7 D
'Cause strictly speaking, I've got my whole life
F#aug Gmaj7
One other major setback
A6 D Dmaj7 D
But strictly speaking, I'm still on track
F#m7/C# Gmaj7
(Yeah)
[Outro]
Gmaj7 A6 D
The hardest part is over, adjusting makes it slower
Dmaj7 D F#aug Gmaj7
So glad you're coming over, I want to bring us closer
A6 D
The world ain't waitin' for ya, nothin' to lose it over
Dmaj7 D F#m7/C# Gmaj7
I just kept getting older, the rest gets easy
A6 D
The rest gets easy
