 This is the story of my time machine invention. 
F         C                G        C
 It'€s not perfect, cuz I'€™m not that bright. 
F              C             G           C
   We walk our days with the best of intentions,  
    F                   C              G                 C
But when I screw things up, I wanna go back and make 'em right.

[Verse]
F              C         G          C
Yeah, I'€™m a believer in mind over matter. 
F                 C          G         C
And I'€™ve made my mind up to travel in time. 
F           C              G             C
Restart the days, and I'€™ll do it so much better. 
        F              C          G                 C
I waste so much time a worryin'€™ I forgot to live my life

[Chorus]
Am            F                 C                G           Am
I'€™m not going anywhere '€˜til I'€™m back to where it was we were before
             F               C              G             Am
I don'€™t need anything except always needing just a little more. 
         F                C              G
I run in circles so I can kick me in the pants. 
          Am            F              C                 G
There'€™s a reason God is doG backwards: we must chase the tail.

[Verse]
    F              C         G          C
The truth is my invention refuses to go backwards. 
F        C          G              C
  A tiny glitch I'€™m sure to figure out.  
          F           C             G               C
But I can ride on the moment slowly time travelling forwards 
       F          C        G            C
So the next destination is always right now. (All aboard!)

Am F C G [x2]


[Chorus]
Am            F                 C                G           Am
I'€™m not going anywhere '€˜til I'€™m back to where it was we were before
             F               C              G             Am
I don'€™t need anything except always needing just a little more.
         F                C              G
I run in circles so I can kick me in the pants.
          Am            F              C                 G
There'€™s a reason God is doG backwards: we must chase the tail.

     F                   C            G              C
I'€™ve finally  solved the puzzle of my time machine invention. 
        F        C           G                  C
You see, in the future, this present '€‹ is'€‹  the past, so 
F                C           G       C
If you give this moment your fullest attention 
      F               C                 G             C
We'€™ll just keep going forwards with no need for going back

[Verse]
Am              F            C              G
Just keep going forwards, no need for going back
Am              F            C              G
Just keep going forwards, no need for going back
Am              F            C              G
Just keep going forwards, no need for going back
Am              F            C              G
Just keep going forwards, no need for going back

[Chorus]
Am            F                 C                G           Am
I'€™m not going anywhere '€˜til I'€™m back to where it was we were before
             F               C              G             Am
I don'€™t need anything except always needing just a little more.
         F                C              G
I run in circles so I can kick me in the pants.
Am              F            C              G
Just keep going forwards, no need for going back.
