- Verse 1:

       Am        G D/F#                    G          D/F#   Em 
Unlucky seventeen, already handed plans for the future
D       C                    D                       G   
Glamour obsessed, told how to dress, and shown how to think
            Am         G D/F#                      G        D/F#   Em     
And I don't have a job, but I can show you how to be a slob
D       C                 D 
So many days, wasted and glazed
            Em             C                   
Sometimes I laugh aloud as I think about,
   G                              A
You asking me "Please can you help?"
           C        D
Can't help my self



- Chorus:

                  G                  D                 
I'm not your savior, I'm not who you want me to be
  C                                  D                         G  
A cowardly mistake I've made so many times before, refusing to break
              Bm                        C                     Cm    
Cut my losses ties them with you, like a good boy I'll pretend
Cm
And promise not to do it again




- Post-Chorus: G D/F# Em D C D  
               G G



- Verse 2:

       Am          G D/F#                   G         D/F#    Em
Do you remember when,  life was so simple and permanent?
D          C                   D                    Em           
Everyone's changed, "Everyone's cool", Everyone sucks
            C                G                                 A     
But I can't seem to complain, Exciting and new is just not there
                C      D
You're getting scared



- Chorus:

             G                      D                 
I'm not your savior, never thought I was anyway
      C                             D                 
I'm a void with empty promises that backs out late
               G                       Bm                
Never said I'd change, taking back the words that we spoke
       C                     Cm                                
Like a fuel tank running dry, you'll believe it when I choke



- Ending: G Bm C D                                
                    you'll believe it when I choke
          G Bm C D                               
                    you'll believe it when their life
          G Bm C D                                     G Bm C D   G
                    why all the good ones have to die?

  

 G Bm C D (until fades)
