· D              G  (Bass notes)


D
An empty papercup blows across the road
G
Like it was late for work on the first day of spring
D
I'll just stay here sitting on the curb collecting dust
G
From all the years that the fever brings to mind
D
If I give it time I will recognize the outline of a heart
G
nothing more than styrofoam
D
It's not that strong weathered from hanging on to the 
G
papercup full of dreams I live for


PRECHORUS:
F#m/C#  D5                 F#m/C#            D5
And there will come a day when the dreams might just blow away
F#m/C#  D5          F#m/C#            D5
That's when it all collided perfectly, oh can't you see that...


CHORUS:
D*                  Bm
Somebody needs you, somebody wants you to care
G*                        Asus
He will be waiting patiently for you in the hour you just can't win



BRIDGE:

[C2 G/B Asus] You just cant win [C2 G/B D] You just cant win

[C2 G/B Asus] You just cant win

G  D/F#                   Asus
No no, when you just cant win
Asus               G    D/F#                   Asus
When you just cant win, no, when you just cant win
