[Verse 1]
A C#m EIt's like a midlife crisis
A C#m EAlready has it in for me

A C#m G#Is I'll be dead by forty
A B A A E BI get so caught up in the future that the present's just a blur
A B E G#mI get so caught up in these anecdotes because I am obsessed with words 
[Verse 2]

G#m ABut hey, I think I've got at least a solid fifty bucks to my name
C#m BSo, clearly I'm okay.

A E B The world has made me feel so small
A E BAnd I'm sure that you can tell this doesn't bother me at all

A EAre you out for blood or glory? 
B A E BWhat's your story, boy?"
A E BIs it too much to ask for both? 
A E BBlood or glory? 
AIs it too much to ask for both?
