Cliche

Key of ? Bb

Verse 1

Dm
Turn on the TV, so I don't have to think
C
Get up off the couch, just to make another drink
Bb
Don't know where I'm going, let's see how far I sink
A7
Pick up the pieces some other day.... then I tell myself

Chorus:

---Dm-------Bb
No guts, no glory,
---C--------------------A
No sticking to your sad story,
----Bb-----------C------------G
Cuz time doesn't wait for any man
-----Bb-------------------C--------------------A
No regrets, you've got to move while you still can

Verse 2
My friends they come over, zombies just like me
Sit around talking, and we ain't drinkin' tea
No thoughts about tomorrow, guess we'll just wait and see
Pick up our pieces another day... but we tell ourselves

Chorus

Verse 3
Ten years later, and nothing much has changed
Been through some hard times, and it's looking like I've aged
But I ain't quitting, and I'm gonna break out of this cage
Pick up the pieces any day now... and I tell myself

Chorus
