OK so now to the song. Enjoy! [Intro] Am F Dm [Verse]
                    Am                                 F
Somebody give me a sign that everything is going as planned,

          Dm               Am                    F                Dm
And then everything falls away into the darkness of this shallow place.

     Am                                                         F
The detail is striking, the rooms cold and frightening, you'll kick and you'll scream

            Dm            Am                      F                Dm
You'll try everything to survive, but you should know your fate by now.
[Pre-Chorus]
F       G       Am      C            F      G
  They told me,     how I should be,    but I broke the mold somehow
[Chorus]
Am                                             F
It's too late, too late. You keep trying to resolve the past right now.

        C                               G                             Am
But I swear I'll be the one to let the world know what you've done to me.
[Verse]
Am                        F                  Dm                  Am
You, you know you gotta search yourself, leave what you need for now

                       F             Dm
It's not the time or place you're searching for

Am                                                       F                Dm
All I can give them is my worst of intentions, you're nothing to me and everyone can see that

Am                         F               Dm
Your life's a lie, there's nowhere left to hide
[Pre-Chorus]
F       G       Am      C            F      G           G#m
  They told me,     how I should be,    but I broke the mold somehow
[Chorus]
Am                                             F
It's too late, too late. You keep trying to resolve the past right now.

        C                               G
But I swear I'll be the one to let the world know what you've done

Am                                             F
It's too late, too late. You keep trying to resolve the past right now.

        C                               G
But I swear I'll be the one to let the world know what you've done to me.
[Breakdown]
Am                                                                  Am
    Watch your back, you'll lose yourself. This is a battleground!

                Am
When will they know

 F             G   G#m
Your life's a lie
[Chorus]
Am                                             F
It's too late, too late. You keep trying to resolve the past right now.

        C                               G
But I swear I'll be the one to let the world know what you've done

Am                                             F
It's too late, too late. You keep trying to resolve the past right now.

        C                               G
But I swear I'll be the one to let the world know what you've done to me.
[Pre-Chorus]
F       G       Am      C            F      G
  They told me,     how I should be,    but I broke the mold somehow
