My Life

1. Got a call from an old friend

We used to be real close

Said he couldn't go on the American way

Closed the shop, sold the house

Bought a ticket to the West Coast

Now he gives them a stand-up routine in L.A.

R: I don't need you to worry for me cause I'm alright

I don't want you to tell me it's time to come home

I don't care what you say anymore, this is my life

Go ahead with your own life, and leave me alone

*: I never said you had to offer me a second chance

I never said I was a victim of circumstance

I still belong, don't get me wrong

E7+9

And you can speak your mind

But not on my time

2. They will tell you you can't sleep

Alone in a strange place

Then they'll tell you you can't sleep with somebody else

But sooner or later you sleep

In your own space

Either way it's okay to wake up with yourself

R:

*:

I don't care what you say anymore, this is my life

Go ahead with your own life, and leave me alone
