C Cadd9/B Am
Verse 1
Dm G
This house never felt like a home
C C/B Am
The road never made me feel gone
Dm G
For heavens sake don't shake me awake
C C/B Am
I'm happy in my comfort zone
Verse 2
Dm G
Some talk a little too much
C C/B Am
Others are cold to the touch
Dm G
Make believe or make like a thief
C C/B Am
Just don't make it a crutch
Chorus
Fadd7 G
Say what ever comes naturally
C C/B Am
It makes no difference to me
Fadd7 G
Try all ya like, it's not ridding a bike
C C/B Am
I'll be falling off eventually
C C/B Am
We'll be falling off eventually
Verse 3
Dm G
Giving in or handing it out
C C/B Am
Who know's it could be my shout
Dm G
Just don't yell at me I can plainly see
C C/B Am
You’ve got better things to scream about
Verse 4
Dm G
It's not easy to give up your space
C C/B Am
I better try and head out with grace
Dm G
They'll laugh anyway, if not today
C C/B Am
The clock's ticking all over my face
Chorus
Fadd7 G
Say what ever comes naturally
C C/B Am
It makes no difference to me

Try all ya like, it's not ridding a bike

Verse 5
Dm G
Far from the maddening crowd
C C/B Am riff
Things can get a little loud
Dm G
But when those thoughts in your head keep you from your bed
C C/B Am
A strong drink will lay you flat out
Verse 6
Dm G
And if you run into a wall
C C/B Am
The best thing to do would be fall
Dm G
Down on your sword it’ll hurt, oh lord!
C C/B Am
But at least you no longer be bored
Chorus
Fadd7 G
Say what ever comes naturally
C C/B Am
It makes no difference to me
Fadd7 G
Try all ya like, it's not ridding a bike
C C/B Am riff
I'll be falling off eventually
C C/B Am
Yeah, We'll be falling off eventually
C C/B Am
Yeah, I'm falling eventually
