[Verse 1]
Emaj7 F#
We chose our names
Bmaj7
We chose our ways to get by
Emaj7
It was never enough
A G#m G#
But it was enough to survive
Emaj7
Now I'm draggin' my feet through the sidewalk
F# Bmaj7
This heat's really getting me down
Emaj7
But I'll keep coming to
A
If it gets me to you
Bmaj7
Hope it turns us around
[Chorus]
C#m F# C#m F#
And I found when it goes around
Bmaj7
That it goes so slow
C#m F# C#m F#
And our names aren't quite the same
Bmaj7
When they say them wrong
[Verse 2]
Emaj7 F# Bmaj7
Sorry to say we'll be expecting delays
Emaj7
Now please grab a seat
A
Get you something to eat
G#m G#
Don't walk too far away from the gate
Emaj7 F#
And I can't stand it anymore
Bmaj7
But I'm still on my own two feet
Emaj7 A
Just wait till we get there (Till we get there)
Bmaj7
I hear that it's nice there
[Chorus]
C#m F# C#m F#
And I found when it goes around
Bmaj7
That it goes so slow
C#m F# C#m F#
And our names aren't quite the same
Bmaj7
When they say them wrong
[Post-Chorus 1]
G#m7 D#
We'll be home soon
Emaj7
Remember yesterday
C#7 G#m
How far we've come today (Look how far we've come)
D#
We'll be alright
Emaj7
I thought we'd learn by now
G#7
A way to live
[Chorus]
C#m F# C#m F#
And I found when it goes around
Bmaj7
That it goes so slow
C#m F# C#m F#
And our names aren't quite the same
Bmaj7
When they say them wrong
[Post-Chorus 2]
G#m7 D#
We'll be home soon
Emaj7
A warm and cozy bed
C#7 G#m
A place to rest our heads (To rest our heads)
D#
And we'll be alright
Emaj7
I thought we learned somehow
G#m7
A way to live without

we chose our names
we chose our ways to get by
it was never enough
but it was enough to survive
now i’m draggin’ my feet to the sidewalk
this is really getting me down
but i’ll keep coming to
if it gets me to you
hope it turns us around

that it goes so slow
and our names aren’t quite the same
