^Am7Morning ^Cadd4had to c^Come, I'd be ^Bbwalking in the^D sun ^G Living in the da^F#11y But last ^Cnight I was about to throw it all a^Eway

If patience started a band I'd be her biggest fan Look at me, I'm talking to you I don't want the lead in your play The star's just a part of the scene The gentleman in green Paying off, out on the street I can't go home, it's not on my way LA Things I've never done, cars parked in the sun Living in the day But last night I was about to throw it all away

Last ^Cnight I was about to throw it all aw^Eay Last ^Cnight I was about to throw it all aw^Eay Last ^Cnight I was about to throw it all aw^Eay
