Born To Hum

C F once in the spring of my 24th year C F i had nothing to say. C with a dangling promise and F a terrible past C F i threw all the words away. Em F C F we were born to hum. C F you were the last in my 24th year C F to make a demand of my voice. C i tickled your ear and F i laughed in your face and C i gave you my choice. Em F C F we were born to hum. Em F C F we were born to hum. (lots of picking here, along with the artist saying "hum". it follows the chord pattern from the rest of the song...C, then F C it's a gradual running, F a kind of release C F that's settled on my face. C F once in awhile i complain to myself, C nothing gets done! F nothing's in place! Em F C but i would rather hum. Em F C i would rather hum. (picking, "hum", C F chord pattern at the end)
