Chorus:
D                                          G
I don't need you to worry for me cause I'm alright
A                                             D    G D G Em7
I don't want you to tell me it's time to come home
D                                          G      G D Em7 D
I don't care what you say anymore, this is my life
A                                         Bm
Go ahead with your own life, and leave me alone
                                   F#7
I never said you had to offer me a second chance
D7                             E
I never said I was a victim of circumstance
G         D     F#7          Bm
I still belong, don't get me wrong
E7          E7
And you can speak your mind
    G   A  G  A
But not on my time
 
 
D                                             G            G D Em7 D
They will tell you you can't sleep alone in a strange place
A                                                   D   G D G Em7
Then they'll tell you you can't sleep with somebody else
D                                     G
But sooner or later you sleep in your own space
A                                         D 
Either way it's okay you wake up with yourself
