  • People always say
    Tom, this has gone to far
    But I'm not afraid to chase my dreams,
    Just me and my guitar

    And no-one may ever know
    The feelings inside my mind
    'Cause all of the lines I ever write
    Are running out of time

    So maybe I should get a nine to five
    But I don't want to let it go, there's so much more to life

    Tell me that I’ve got it wrong
    Tell me everything will be okay
    Before I fall
    Tell me they'll play my songs
    Tell me they'll sing the words I say
    When darkness falls
    All of the stars will see
    Just me and my guitar

    I'm sure that I'll find my way
    'Cause I'm not afraid to try
    Even a world of love and hope can't guarantee that price

    So maybe I should get a nine to five
    But I don't want to let it go, there's so much more to life

    Tell me that I've got it wrong
    Tell me everything will be okay
    Before I fall
    Tell me they'll play my songs
    Tell me they'll sing the words I say
    When darkness falls
    All of the stars will see
    Just me and my guitar
