[Verse 1]
C F
Once I started down the road
G C
Never studied where I'd go
Am F
Darkness waited on the way
G C
Still I never seemed afraid
[Chorus 1]
B7 C
I appeared and said that I was strong
G B7
and if I got it wrong, I kept up the masquerade
E7 A2 G C
Now I see the truth I meant to find
F F Gsus G Gsus G
Knowing now that I was only wasting time
[Verse 2]
C F
So I missed the warning signs
G C
Took the hard road every time
Am F
Though I passed the easy turns
G C
I don't regret the lessons learned
[Chorus 2]
B7 C
I took away the mask and let it fall
G B7
and then I saw it all: I was looking straight at you
E7 A2 G C
Now I see the truth I meant to find
F F Gsus G
Knowing now that I was only wasting time
