Nothing Gets Crossed Out Uke tab by Bright Eyes

A6                               Bm7
The future's got me worried, such awful thoughts
              E                         A       Aadd9
My head is a carousel of pictures, the spinning never stops
   A6                  Bm7
I just want someone to walk in front
    G7              A 
And I'll follow the leader
            A6                         Bm7
Like when I fell under the weight of a schoolboy crush
        E                      A     Aadd9
Started carrying her books and doing lots of drugs
A6              Bm7           
I almost forgot who I was, 
     G7           A
But I came to my senses


Now I'm tryin' to be assertive, I'm making plans
Wanna rise to the occasion, yeah
Meet all of their demands
But all I do is just lay in bed
And hide under the covers


A6                 E
I know I should be brave
    A            Aadd9              E   
But I'm just too afraid of all this change


And it's too hard to focus through all this doubt
I keep making these "To Do" lists but nothing gets crossed out
Working on the record seems pointless now
When the world ends, who's gonna hear it?
But I'm tryin' and take some comfort in written words
Yeah Tim I heard your album and it's better than good
When you get off tour I think we should hang and black out together
Because I've been feeling sentimental for days gone by
All those summers singing, drinking, laughing, wasting our time
Remember all those songs and the way we smiled
In those basements made of music


A6                  E
But now I've got to crawl,
       A           Aadd9           E
To get anywhere at all. I'm not as strong as I thought

           A6
So when I'm lost in a crowd
           E
I hope that you'll pick me out
         G7
Oh, how I long to be found
              E
The grass grew high, I laid down
     E   
Now I wait for a hand 
          E
To lift me up, help me stand
         G7
I've been laying so low
             E
Don't want to lay here no more
             A6
Don't want to lay here no more
             E
Don't want to lay here no more
             G7            E
Don't want to lay here no more


        A6                         Bm7     
But if everything that happens is supposed to be
    E                             A           Aadd9
And it's all predetermined, can't change your destiny
A6                           Bm7
Guess I'll just keep moving, someday, maybe,
     G7               A
I'll get to where I'm going
