Song
----
D A
I can't deal with all this undergrowth talk
Em7 A
It just trips my feet and tangles up my thoughts
G A
You're trying to sell me your new faith
D
Tell me why do you do it?
G
And your hands are clenched and you're talking low
Bm
With your eyes like flames and your voice like snow
G Em A
Someone dug a pit for you and you fell right into it
Chorus
------
G
Tell me how the universe was meant to be
A D
Take another sip of your cola
G
You be the colonel of the cavalry
A Bm
I'll be Francis Ford Coppola
G
We'll go together through the jungle night
Bm
Till the moon and stars fade out of sight
G A7
Waiting for the dawn to come
D G D G D G D G
Here in Angola, here in Angola.
Rest of song
------------
D A
I can't remember how you got this way
Em7 A
I can still recall you in a younger day
G A D
The earnestness now drips off you like butter
G
And you fling round words in a holy war
Bm
And you look so vague but seem so sure
G Em A
Don't you ever just want to break right down and stutter.
Chorus
Gm D
Ahhhh, why don't you let it go
G Gm/Bb D F#m
Ahhhh, you'd be too wise to know
G A G
That time will get you anyway
A Bb
It's at your door today
Guitar instrumental: C Bb C Bb C F Bb C Bb C Bb C D
A
I can't deal with these periscope views
Em7 A
The caveman scrawl that you call news
G A D
Hey, why don't you make a note to cancel your next visit
G
Well I knew that things were getting out of control
Bm
When you found your faith and lost your soul
G Em
If there's something you'd rather die than compromise
A
What is it?

3 Doors Down
Life of my Own
(Lyrics by Arnold)
(Music by Arnold, Roberts, & Henderson)Living risky, never scared, wander
Closer to the edge
Nothing valued think no fear, always
Wondering why you’re here
All your purposes are gone, nothing’s
Right and nothing’s wrong
Nothing ventured, nothing gained
Feel no sorrow, feel no painKiss me while I’m still alive
Kill me while I kiss the sky
Let me die on my own terms, let me
Live and let me learn
Now I’ll follow my own way, and I’ll
Live on to another damn day
Freedom carries sacrifice, remember
When this was my lifeLooking forward, not behind
Everybody’s got to cross that line
Free me now to give me a place,
Keep me caged and free the beast
Falling faster, time goes by, fear is
Not seen through these eyes
What there was will never be, now
I’m blind and cannot seeKiss me while I’m still alive
Kill me while I kiss the sky
Let me die on my own terms, let
Me live and let me learn
Now I’ll follow my own way, and I’ll
Live on to another damn day
Freedom carries sacrifice, remember
When this was my lifeKiss me while I’m still alive
Kill me while I kiss the sky
Let me die on my own terms, let
Me live and let me learn
Now I’ll follow my own way, and I'll live on to another damn day
Freedom carries sacrifice,
Remember when this was my life -
