[Intro]
G Dmaj7
 
 
[Verse 1]
G                                       Dmaj7
  I close my front door and turn on the light
G                                 Dmaj7
  I let out a breath and hold in a sigh
G                                      Dmaj7
  Ain't nothin' new, ain't that much in sight
A                          G                                       Dmaj7
  And if I'm counting days, dream fruition ain't what it's looking like
 
 
[Chorus]
                                 G
But strictly speaking, I'm still on track
              A7          Dmaj7
Strictly speaking, I'm holding on
             F#m   G
More than a minor setback
                  A7            Dmaj7
But strictly speaking, I'm still on track
                 F#m           G
And all of my dreams are still in sight
                     A7               Dmaj7
'Cause strictly speaking, I've got my whole life
            F#m        G
Challenges falling in my lap
                  A7            Dmaj7
But strictly speaking, I'm still on track
 
 
[Verse 2]
  G*                               A*
I know it's unrealistic, over-optimistic
  Dmaj7*                                       F#m*
I know I tried before this, I know it's nearly August
  G                                            A
I know I can't ignore this, looking forward to all this
         Dmaj7                                         F#m
Sayin', "Babe, I just adore this" and, "Babe, can we afford this?"
  G                                             A
I know it's been a slow year, nothin' much to show here
  Dmaj7                                     F#m
I didn't really go for it, so not a lot to show for it
 
 
[Refrain]
G                              A7               Dmaj7
  The hardest part is over, adjusting makes it slower
                               F#m               G
So glad you're comin' over, a wall to bring us closer
                                    A7             Dmaj7
The world ain't bearin' for ya, nothin' to lose it over
                               F#m             G
We're just a little older, the rest comes easy
    A7              Dmaj7
The rest comes easy
 
 
[Chorus]
                                 G
But strictly speaking, I'm still on track
              A7          Dmaj7
Strictly speaking, I'm holding back
            F#m        G
Challenges falling in my lap
                        A7            Dmaj7
Yeah, but strictly speaking, I'm still on track
             F#m         G
So tell everyone I'll be alright
                     A7               Dmaj7
'Cause strictly speaking, I've got my whole life
            F#m        G
Challenges falling in my lap
                        A7            Dmaj7       F#m
Yeah, but strictly speaking, I'm still on track (Yeah)
 
 
[Refrain]
G                              A7               Dmaj7
  The hardest part is over, adjusting makes it slower
                              F#m                G
So glad you're comin' over, a wall to bring us closer
                                    A7             Dmaj7
The world ain't rootin' for ya, nothin' to lose it over
                               F#m             G
We're just a little older, the rest comes easy
    A7         Dmaj7   A6/11
The rest comes easy
