[Intro]
| C | - |

[Verse 1]
C
I can wait
I can wait
                                  Fmaj7
I can sit wondering what in the world
C/E    C/D      C
   you think about
G                                        C
I don't think i'm ever gonna figure it out
After all the alcohol,
the pretty words have devolved down
   Fmaj7 C/E    C/D     C
To slurs    and drunken shouts
G                                        C
I don't think I'm ever gonna figure it out

[Chorus]
F                        C
 Like some wild last frontier
Am7              Em11/A                D7/F#            G
   You never know      what kind of fight's gonna appear

[Verse 2]
     C
That once begun can't be won
                                Fmaj7
Started out losing already and go
C/E    C/D C
   all ten rounds
G                                       Am G
I don't think I'm ever gonna figure it ou_t
Am           G     F                     C
I don't think I'm ever gonna figure it out

 The tired hits that fall below

Yeah, yeah   I know

I don't think i'm ever gonna figure it out
