So much for bad luck

I'd have a sorry looking raft

It always rains
G# A#m G# F#
But it's nice to see

That someone else is sad
[Refrão] C# A#m
I'm tired, oh I'm tired of being a scapegoat

So I can stay in one place

My roots can get loose

So I can stay in one place

To get rid of you

Can you find your calling

If nothing's calling for you?

For you?
