The Future Freaks Me Out

	  		
                       E 
So let me tell you this one 
              A9 
Try to keep up with me 
                C#m7          E              A9 
It's a tale that I have told a thousand times before 
                       E 
This is the story of my life 
          A9 
And how I hate it 
           C#m7                          E              A9 
And all the mistakes I mull over are the reason why I'm here 
           E 
I went to a shrink 
               A9 
He asked me to open up 
              C#m7                    E                A9 
So I told him I'm lazy and how I just can't get things done 
                          E 
He said " you need to push forward 
                         A9 
And none of this is your fault 
              C#m7                        E                  A9 
But maybe you cling to the past 'cause the future freaks you out) 

Yeah, the future freaks me out

On and off I feel shitty 

          A9 
I cannot stand the heat 
                    C#m7          E                  A9 
I want a scape from reality or at least something to dream 
                         E 
I told my shrink 'bout my mom 
                  A9 
And how she's overprotective 
                       C#m7                   E                 A9 
Sometimes I feel like a child even though I'm twenty-five years old 
                   E 
I told him about my dad 
                A9 
And how I can't recall 
                    C#m7            E                 A9 
The last time that we hugged we are completely out of touch 
                  E 
I told him 'bout my girlfriend 
               A9 
And how she is so sad 
                    C#m7                E                  A9 
I wonder if she'd be better without me, I wish I could help her 

(But I can't even help myself)
