add lyrics with it I decided to add this anyway for those of you out there who plays and sings)
Intro

[Am] [Dm] [Fmaj7] [G]
I'm walking away from the troubles in my life, I'm walking away, oh to find a better day

I'm walking away
Verse 1
[Dm] [F] [G]
Sometimes some people get me wrong, when it's something I've said or done
[Am] [Dm] [F] [G]
Sometimes you feel there is no fun, that's why you turn and run
[Am] [Dm]
But now I truly realise, some people don't wanna compromise
[Fmaj7] [G]
Well I saw them with my own eyes, spreading those lies
[Am] [Dm]
And, well I don't wanna live my life, too many sleepless nights
[Fmaj7] [G]
Not mentioning the fights, I'm sorry to say lady

I'm walking away
Verse 2
[Dm] [F] [G]
Well I'm so tired baby, things you say, you're driving me away
[Am] [Dm] [F] [G]
Whispers in the powder room baby, don't listen to the games they play
[Am] [Dm]
Girl I thought you'd realise, I'm not like them other guys
[Fmaj7] [G]
Cause I saw them with my own eyes, you should've been more wise

And, well I don't wanna live my life, too many sleepless nights
[Fmaj7] [G]
Not mentioning the fights, I'm sorry to say lady
