[E] [F#m11]

[E]Unfit to live in - [F#m11]just about fit to burst...

Like the [E]banks of a swollen river,

As [B11]bitterness does its worst...

[E]Working on your feelings - [F#m11]eating you all up.

But you have to [E]shed that shit to move on,

And [B11]let love carry you on up!

(It's just) [E]Bitterness rising -[F#m11] taking you off.

[E]Bitterness rising - you gotta[B11] shake those feelings off!

[E] [F#m11]

[E]Unfair to give in - and [F#m11]never change its course.

If you [E]have the choice before you,

You gotta [B11]take it with a force!


E11 E
Or the past will take you - keep you from the truth.

E11 F#m11 G#m11 A B
As bitterness rises - from the ashes of your youth!


(It's just) [E]Bitterness rising -[F#m11] taking you off.

[E]Bitterness rising - you gotta[B11] shake those feelings off!

[E]Bitterness rising - [F#m11]taking you off.

[E]Bitterness rising - you gotta[B11] shake those feelings off!


[C#m]Moments in time - finding the space,

[F#m] To be what'cha wanna be.[G#m]

[C#m]The things you never got - life you never had.

[F#m] The dreams that you once dreamed.[G#m]

[C#m](For the "Shoo do[F#m] do do" p[G#m]art)

[C#m]Finding the space - waiting the time.

F#m11 G#m11 A
To be what'cha wanna be -

B
Just be!

[E] [F#m11]
[E] [B11]

E11 E
Or the past will take you - keep you from the truth.

E11 F#m11 G#m11 A B
As bitterness rises - from the ashes of your youth!

(It's just) [E]Bitterness rising -[F#m11] taking you off.

[E]Bitterness rising - you gotta[B11] shake those feelings off!

[E]Bitterness rising - [F#m11]taking you off.

[E]Bitterness rising - you gotta[B11] shake those feelings off!

(Repeat till the end)
