 G
In my mind
                  C
In a future five years from now
      D
Iʼm 120 pounds
       C
And I never get hungover
          G                         C
Because I will be the picture of discipline
                    D
Never minding what state Iʼm in
        C
And be someone I admire
          D                                   C
And itʼs funny how I imagined that I would be that person now
        D
But it does not seem to have happened
            C                       D
Maybe Iʼve just forgotten how, to see
              C                                      G
That Iʼm not exactly the person that I thought Iʼd be

          G
And in my mind
                C
In the faraway here and now
                     D
Iʼve become in control somehow
       C
And I never lose my wallet
         G                          C
Because I will be the picture of discipline
                  D
Never fucking up anything
               C
And Iʼll be a good defensive driver
          D                                   C
And itʼs funny how I imagined that I would be that person now
        D
But it does not seem to have happened
            C                       D
Maybe Iʼve just forgotten how, to see
           C                                      G
That Iʼll never be the person that I thought Iʼd be

          G
And in my mind
          C
When Iʼm old, I am beautiful
                     D
Planting tulips and vegetables
              C
Which I will mindfully watch over -
              G
Not like me, now
                  C
Iʼm so busy with everything
                      D
That I donʼt look at anything
                  C
But Iʼm sure Iʼll look when I am older
          D                                  C
And itʼs funny how I imagine that I could be that person now
                       D
But thatʼs not what I want, if thatʼs what I wanted
               C
then Iʼd be giving up somehow
                D                      C
How strange to see that I donʼt want to be
                          G
the person that I want to be

           G
And in my mind
              C
I imagine so many things
                           D
Things that arenʼt really happening
               C
And when they put me in the ground,
                         G
Iʼll start pounding the lid,
                      C
Saying "I havenʼt finished yet –
                  D
I still have a tattoo to get
                C
That says ʼIʼm living in the momentʼ."
          D
And itʼs funny how I imagined
                 C
That I could win this winless fight
              D
But maybe it isnʼt all that funny
                  C
That Iʼve been fighting all my life
             D
But maybe I have to think itʼs funny
         C
If I wanna live before I die
               D
And maybe itʼs funniest of all
                   C
To think Iʼll die before I actually see
           C                                G
That I am exactly the person that I want to be
