Diplomat Lyrics
My first tab! I was looking for chords and couldn't find them anywhere so I tried
playing a few and they seemed to work! This is completely by ear so it's probably not 100%
correct, but it sounds right when I play it. Enjoy!
Intro:
Verse 1:
Live to work, work to live
No time left to spend or give
Walking like a bureaucrat
Talking like a diplomat
Verse 2:
Always look into their eyes
Firm handshakes, quick replies
Push the product, sell the crop
Climb that ladder to the top
Verse 3:
But what if it's not meant for me?
I can't stand the symmetry
My head is stuck inside the clouds
But I can see clearly now
Chorus:
I'm trying to find the means to living more passionately
Cause I'm not who I wanna be
Buried in routines, I don't care what happens to me
I just gotta get free
Verse 4:
I am no proprietor
Tell that that to my dear father
Taught me everything he knew
About nothing that I wanna do
Verse 5:
Earned awards, honors, degrees
I couldn't find myself in these
So I took my car keys and ID's
And threw them in the ocean
Bridge:
Now, all of the world is laying right before my eyes
I wonder why the hell it took so long for me to recognize
(recognieieiiize)
I'm trying to find the means to living more passionately
Cause I'm not who I wanna be
Buried in routines, I don't care what happens to me
Chorus:
I said I'm trying to find the means to living more passionately
Cause I'm not who I wanna be
Buried in routines, I don't care what happens to me
I just gotta get free
I just gotta get free
G D Am C D (Repeat and fade)
