I'm two days into college and I'm three lectures behind 
        D 
There's this guy, let's name him Colin, he says he wants to be mine 
               Em 
But it doesn't really sit with me quite right, 'Cause he doesn't really like the things I like 
       C 
And I keep accidentally locking myself out of my dorm in the middle of the night 

  G 
I wake up kinda wired and I wake up kinda cold 
   D 
And I wake up kinda tired but I'll just sleep in when I'm old 
    Em 
See, I don't like breaking rules but don't like doing as I'm told 
       C 
So I just float around and keep my head down, and hope my life unfolds 

 

  G                  D 
And everybody's telling me that I'm doing so well 
   Em                    C 
I try to trust them, honestly, I find it hard to tell 
   G                   D 
If I need work or I need rest, I try my best to try my best 
   Em                       C 
I tell myself, I say out loud, "It's fine, I'll figure it all out." 

 

C               D 
I tend to forget, I'm still only quite young 
G          D             Em       D 
In a way, this life of mine has only just begun 
      C           D 
I've got time, I've got time 
 

   G 
I'm two days into college with a busy, busy mind 
  D 
That guy that we named Colin, he's so handsome, he's so kind 
 Em 
My friends tell me I'm crazy, say I'll take it way too far 
     C 
'Cause I told him that it's over 'cause he doesn't play guitar 

      G 
I'm only two days into college and my bedroom is a mess 
        D 
There's just so much that I want to do that I have not done yet 
        Em 
There's just so much that I want to say and far too little breath 
   C 
Oh my mind, it runs so far away, it's easy to forget 
 

     G                   D 
That to everybody else it looks like I'm doing so well 
  Em                   C 
I try to see it, honestly, I find it hard to tell 
   G                        D 
If I've done wrong or I've done right, I need a good night's sleep tonight 
  Em                      C 
They said go out, I said alright, I think I won't, I maybe might 
    C                                     D 
I probably should just take it slow, I'll be all good, but God I know 



  C            D         G   D    Em 
The one thing that's important above everything else 
     C          D             G     D   Em 
Is to learn not to put all this heavy pressure on myself 
    D    C         D 
I try believe it when I say 
                   G             D     Em   D 
"If it's meant to happen, it'll happen anyway." 
        C 
I'll be fine 
      D 
I've got time 
      G      B  Em  D 
I've got time 

Final 

          C 
That's where I'm at, to be honest 
   D 
Just two days 
               G
