D C7+9 EbM7/F Bb

(repeat)


[Verse]

D                  D/F#
Got a call from an old friend
                G
We used to be real close
A                                   D
Said he couldn't go on the American way
                           D/F#
Closed the shop, sold the house
                        G
Bought a ticket to the West Coast
A
Now he gives them a stand-up routine in L.A.


[Instrumental]

D C7+9 EbM7/F Bb 

(repeat)


[Chorus]

D                  D/F#                    G
I don't need you to worry for me cause I'm alright
A                                                D   
   I don't want you to tell me it's time to come home
D                  D/F#                    G
I don't care what you say anymore, this is my life
A                                         Bm
   Go ahead with your own life, and leave me alone


[Bridge]

Bm                                  F#7/C#
I never said you had to offer me a second chance
D                                Esus            E
I never said I was a victim of circumstance
G         D/F#   F#            Bm
I still belong,     don't get me wrong
E7+9
 And you can speak your mind
    G/A   A   G/A  A
But not   on  my   time


[Verse]

D                  D/F#
They will tell you you can't sleep
                G
Alone in a strange place
A                                                   D
Then they'll tell you you can't sleep with somebody else
D                           D/F#
But sooner or later you sleep
        G
In your own space
A
Either way it's okay to wake up with yourself


[Chorus]

D                   D/F#                   G
I don't need you to worry for me cause I'm alright
A                                                D  
   I don't want you to tell me it's time to come home
D                     D/F#                 G
I don't care what you say anymore, this is my life
A                                            Bm
   Go ahead with your own life, and leave me alone


[Bridge]

Bm                                  F#7/C#
I never said you had to offer me a second chance
D                                Esus            E
I never said I was a victim of circumstance
G         D/F#   F#              Bm
I still belong,     don't get me wrong
E7+9
 And you can speak your mind
    G/A   A   G/A  A
But not   on  my   time


[Solo]  

D    D/F#    G    A    D


[Chorus]
D                     D/F#                 G
I don't care what you say anymore, this is my life
A                                            D
Go ahead with your own life, and leave me alone
