Capotraste 3 Tom: G G The group were big for just a year C and then the whole thing fell Am they had nothing to fall back on D they fell pretty hard as you can tell G C and now they're cleaning tables in the local bar Am D it wasn't all that long ago that they'd be told that they'd go far G C She looks down on those who do not look up to her Am D she's a head above them all although she'll never be as tall G C And everybody loves her they think that she is swell Am D But the one true problem is that she knows it all too well CHORUS C Bm Em Carve out your future no one else will do it for you (x2) Am C C/B Am D Am I know that it's a hard thing to choose, but I think it's pretty clear that C C/D Am D G I've got nothing to lose C Bm Em Take life by the handlebars and shake shake shake C Bm Em It is nowhere you will go if it's not progress that you make Am C C/B Am D Am I know that it's a hard thing to choose, but I think it's pretty clear that C C/D Am D G I've got nothing to lose VERSE 2 He's feeling pretty confident he thinks his future's made But all of a sudden the adoration could fade Now he begs the world to like him , and pretend he likes himself but he's wasted all his years and now he's sitting on the shelf I can try to avoid it I can push it in the shade But whether I like it or not there are decisions to be made I'm really scared a little bridge is all that I will be They'll tell me I'll be big and then they'll walk all over me CHORUS Carve out your future no one else will do it for you (x2) I know that it's a hard thing to choose, but I think it's pretty clear that I've got nothing to lose Take life by the handlebars and shake shake shake It is nowhere you will go if it's not progress that you make I know that it's a hard thing to choose, but I think it's pretty clear that I've got nothing to lose now BRIDGE C G Em D/F# Can I be sure that I've got nothing to lose C G Em D/F# G Can I be sure that I won't end up bruised CHORUS Take life by the handlebars Take life by the handlebars and shake shake shake It is nowhere you will go if it's not progress that you make I know that it's a hard thing to choose, but I think it's pretty clear that I've got nothing to lose now
