E F#m11
unfit to live in – just about fit to burst . . .

E
like the banks of a swollen river ,

B11
as bitterness does its worst . . .

E F#m11
working on your feelings – eating you all up .

E
but you have to shed that shit to move on ,

B11
and let love carry you on up!

E F#m11
( it’s just ) bitterness rising – taking you off .

E B11
bitterness rising – you gotta shake those feelings off!

E F#m11

E F#m11
unfair to give in – and never change its course .

E
if you have the choice before you ,

B11
you gotta take it with a force!

E11 E *
or the past will take you – keep you from the truth .

E11 F#m11 G#m11 A * B *
as bitterness rises – from the ashes of your youth!

E F#m11
( it’s just ) bitterness rising – taking you off .

E B11
bitterness rising – you gotta shake those feelings off!

E F#m11
bitterness rising – taking you off .

E B11
bitterness rising – you gotta shake those feelings off!

C#m
moments in time – finding the space ,

F#m G#m
to be what’cha wanna be .

C#m
the things you never got – life you never had .

F#m G#m
the dreams that you once dreamed .

C#m F#m G#m
( for the “shoo do do do” part )

C#m
finding the space – waiting the time .

F#m11 G#m11 A *
to be what’cha wanna be –

B *
just be!

E F#m11
