Bm                               G
Well it's a funny, sad, strange situation I've been in
                                          D
Where everything I do is my next worst sin
                                             A
I'm tired of watching life pass me by in fear
                                                                     Bm
So, I lit this joint and burned a whole right through the atmosphere
                                            G
'Cause I don't wanna watch life pass me by
                                  D
No, I don't wanna hide away inside

Gotta get back to the basics
                A
Step out of the matrix

Life's too short to waste it

[Pre-Chorus]
      Bm
It's a beautiful day
                      G
To step outside and hear him calling

[Chorus]
Bm               G            D A
I'm not gonna write you a sad song
Bm              G           D         A
I'm not gonna write about how I don't belong
          Bm               G
'Cause as tempting as it seems
      D                A
Well, that just isn't me
     Bm                       G
So, I'll do like Paul McCartney
D                       A
And I'll just let it be, let it be

[Instrumental]

Bm G D A

[Verse]
Bm
Let me get my generation
                            G
Back to a point of preservation and regeneration
                           D
Where peace of mind is more important than this demonstration
                       A
Anxiety is overwhelming our radio stations
                           Bm
Depression is most artists' only point of conversation
                        G
Which leads to negativity and personal frustration
                              D
This frame of mind is deadly amongst many heavy faces
                                 A
Ready to believe in the self-hatred that's in their playlist

How do we change this?

[Pre-Chorus]
      Bm
It's a beautiful day
                      G
To step outside and hear him calling

[Chorus]
Bm               G            D A
I'm not gonna write you a sad song
Bm              G           D         A
I'm not gonna write about how I don't belong
          Bm               G
'Cause as tempting as it seems
      D                A
Well, that just isn't me
     Bm                       G
So, I'll do like Paul McCartney
D                       A
And I'll just let it be, let it be
