[Verse 1]
G
That's the road, it's over there,
            G/F#    Bm
And leading down to nowhere,
G
    This is the age...
                       G/F#      Bsus2
When you're allowed to have your own chance,
Am
    If you were half so bright,
      Em                 G
You'd plan your life a - head,
Am                                E           Am   G
   Instead of waiting 'til you're old in your bed
 
[Chorus]
C                     Am C    Em             G
I'll be over tonight,      ...if you say you might,
C                     Am C    G               Em
I'll be over tonight,      ...need to put you right
 
[Verse 2]
G
I'm so used to waiting,
                G/F#      Bm
That's entirely your de - cision,
G
    Don't be restricted...
                  G/F#         Bsus2
By the weightless views you're given,
Am
    If you were half so bright,
      Em                  G
You'd hide them from your head,
Am                             E              Am
   Instead of saving 'til your young heart is dead,
     G
Woh, oh - oh!
 
[Chorus]
C                     Am C    Em             G
I'll be over tonight,      ...if you say you might,
C                     Am C    G               Em
I'll be over tonight,      ...need to put you right
 
[Bridge]
        D                           D/C
Well, I know what you wrote in your overcoat,
        G/B                       D  D/C D/B D/A D/G
But you don't want to take it too far,       Oh, I...
   D                      D/C
...think you won't, but I know you don't,
    G/B                 D     Dsus4 D
You always say that you are--------------!

[Verse 3]
G
Never let the riches,
                G/F#      Bm
That my endless need will give you,
G
   Show some concern for all the love...
     G/F#     Bsus2
That you must live through,
Am
    If you were half so bright,
      Em                 G      Gsus4 G Gadd2 G
You'd plan your life a - head,
Am                                E           Am   G
   Instead of waiting 'til you're old in your bed
 
[Chorus]
C                     Am C    Em              G
I'll be over tonight,      ...if you say you might,
C                     Am C    G               Em
I'll be over tonight,      ...need to put you right
C                     Am C    Em             G
I'll be over tonight,      ...if you say you might,
C                     Am C    G               Em
I'll be over tonight,      ...need to put you right
