[Intro 1]
[A][D][G][D][A][D][G][D]
[G][D]
[A]He went to visit an

[Verse 1]
[A]old,
old [D]friend
And it was long, long [G]over[D]due
[A]And though they stayed up very late
[D]They never talked out of [G]turn or tune[D]
[A]And every time they'd say goodbye
[D]Well he'd just stay ano[G]ther whi[D]le
[A]They started from a distant place
[D]And were so happy fac[G]e to [D]face

[Verse 2]
[A]The one who left wanted everything
[D]The one who stayed never wan[G]ted mor[D]e
[A]It's not your choice,
it's how you're built
[D]It's in a blueprint of you[G]r sou[D]l
[A]The one who left, he dropped his smile
[D]And they sat qui[G]et for a whi[D]le
[A]Then the one who stayed began to speak
[D]And in his words, he ans[G]wered why[D]

[Verse 3]
[D]
I'm just [Gm]another drop in the bucket
[D]I'm just another son[Bm]g on a jukebox
[A]I'm just another fac[G]e in the crowd
Another fish [A]in the sea
[D]

[Verse 4]
Something to [Gm]being one of the many
[D]Something to being one[Bm] in the masses
[A]Something to being surrou[G]nded by
others and not alone [A]by [D]yourself

[Verse 5]
[E]I never wanted the bright lights and
my [A]eyes are [D]much too [Em]quiet[D]
[E]I never wanted them pointing
their fingers [A]at me
[Em]Oh n[D]o, b[Em]ut

[Verse 6]
[D]Something to bei[Gm]ng one of the many
[D]Something to being one[Bm] in the masses
[A]Something to being surrou[G]nded by
others and not alone [A]by your[D]self

[Verse 7]
[A]The one who left he knew it the[D]n
And he would never [G]doubt [D]again
[A]He loved this life, he loved his friend
[D]But he'd keep running 'ti[G]l the end[D]
[A]All words they said hovered above
[D]All of the[G] pain, all of the lov[D]e
[A]They hugged goodbye
And in his room,
[D]he sang real quiet to [G]the moo[D]n

[Verse 8]
[D]Something to [Gm]being one of the [D]many who
get to sing [Bm]the songs on the jukebox
[A]Who get to stay awa[G]ke all night and
dream half [A]of the [D]day
Something to waking [Gm]up in a new town
[D]Something to singing songs
[Bm]to a new crowd
[A]Something to being surrou[G]nded by
others and not [A]alone [D]by yourself

[Verse 9]
[E]I never wanted the bright lights and
my [A]eyes are [D]much too [Em]quiet[D]
[E]I never wanted them pointing
their fingers at [A]me
[Em]Oh n[D]o, b[Em]ut

[Verse 10]
[D]Something to bei[Gm]ng one of the man[D]y who
get to sing [Bm]the songs on the jukebox
[A]Who get to stay awa[G]ke all night
and dream half of [A]the [D]day
Then wake [G]up in [A]a new [Bm]town
Just [G]an other [A]face in the crowd
