[Verse 1]
[D]Lis[A]ten up, an d I[D]'ll[F#m] tell a[D] story
About an artist growing [Em]old[G][Em]
[G]Some [Em]will try for fame
[G]and glory[Em][G]
[A]And others aren't so bol[D]d
And everyone in friends and family
Saying, go [Em]get a job[G][Em]
[G]Why do [Em]you only [G]do that [Em]only?[G]
[A]And why are you so odd[D]?
They say we don't really like what you do
We don't think anyone ever [Em]will
We think you have a [G]problem
[A]Ethan's problems made
you [D]ill[Em][A]
[D][A]
[D]The artist walks among the flowers,
appreciating the sun
[G]He's out there all his waking hou[Em]rs
[A]Oh and who's to say he's wro[D]ng
[A]But the artist wal[D]ks alone
And someone says behind his [Em]back
He's got some gold to [G]call himself [Em]that
[A]He doesn't even know
where he's [D]at
So listen up, and I'll tell a story
About an artist growing [Em]old
Some will try for fame [G]and glory[D]
[A]Others like to watch the
[D]world [A]fall[G][Em][A]
Da da [G]da, da [A]da [Em]da d[A]a
