[Intro]
D

[Verse 1]
D
All of my life I've been
searching for something
  D
I give everything and
I end up with nothing
  G
I only hurt myself,
   Em
to please everyone else
        D
So I've packed up my things
and the engine is running

[Pre-Chorus]
       G
'Cause I just can't
keep going like this

[Chorus]
       G               D
So I'm learning how to live
        A      Bm
Without me and anybody,
G                D
rolling like the wind
      A        Bm
Tryna leave it all behind me
G                 D
Know that I'm not there
         A
But finally, feels like
    Bm      A     G   D
I'm getting somewhere
          A
Somewhere

[Verse 2]
D
Headed out West where the
sun's always shining
D
Back where I'm from there
ain't no silver lining
G
When it rains it pours
      Em
Don't call me for the storm
   Em
It hurts you so bad that you
                 D
just feel like I feel

rolling like the wind

Tryna leave it all behind me

Know that I'm not there
