Procrastinating - Stellar Kart
B
So here I am
It's 3 AM
I don't know where to begin
Time?s running out
And there?s no doubt
Ab
That I feel like throwing in the towel
E B
With no way I can get this start finished
B
I try and try
And wonder why
The answers never come
Guess this is it
I'm tired and sick
Ab
Of always feeling undone
I've tired it all but there is
E B
Still something missing
B Eb
So I'm a day late
Ab F#
At least a buck short
B E
I've got no chance to
Ab F#
Make this on my own
B Eb
I don't have it made
Ab F#
I'm nowhere near the shade
B E
Will you step in this
Ab F# B
Life and take control
N.C. (This is a bass only verse but can be played the same as the previous verses)
Show me the way
I know that slow and steady
Wins the race
But slow to me
?Cause I can't see
Is like a lightning pace
And all get is nowhere
Constantly waiting
B
Are you still there
And do you care
About how I'm feeling now
I?d like to see what I can be
Without this holding me down
Ab
But I'm too scared
B
Of taking this chance and failing
B Eb
So I'm a day late
Ab F#
At least a buck short
B E
I've got no chance to
Ab F#
Make this on my own
B Eb
I don't have it made
Ab F#
I'm nowhere near the shade
B E
Will you step in this
Ab F# B
Life and take control
E
I'm always waiting
B
Procrastinating
E
I feel so useless
Ab F#
On my own
E
You're always waiting
B
Just in time to save me
E
I'm not so useless
Ab F#
I'm not alone
B
So here I am
Ab
It's 3 AM
E
No better time to begin
B Eb
So I'm a day late
Ab F#
At least a buck short
B E
I've got no chance to
Ab F#
Make this on my own
B Eb
I don't have it made
Ab F#
I'm nowhere near the shade
B E
Will you step in this
Ab F# B
Life and take control
And take control
