              B                      C#m   B  A
I found other things to keep my mind on
                  B                        C#m    B A
And I'm gettin to know myself a little bit better

Whoa, keep pushin on,       keep pushin on yeah

                        A          B           C#m

            B A          B                C#m       B A
Oh yes I did,   tryin to leave behind the heartache
             B                       C#m
Sometimes I think I was a little bit crazy
