As recorded by Anberlin (From the 2005 Album NEVER TAKE FRIENDSHIP PERSONAL) [Intro] Am F Dm Am F Dm [Verse 1]
Am
There's a hatchet, got a knife

Am
When I awoke there was nothing real in this life

                    F
But dreams are so intoxicating

            Dm
When you're doing this alone

Am
Gun, rope, brick on the way

Am
But words have no meaning

                   F
When it's you that says, "I really do care"

           Dm             Am
No baby I, I really do care
[Chorus]
Am
Innocence gone

                           F
Never take friendship personal

                             Dm
If you can't hold yourself together

                          Am
Why should I hold you now?

Am
In a sense gone

                           F
Never take friendship personal

                             Dm
If you can't hold yourself together

                         Am
Why should I hold you now?
[Verse 2]
Am
Once a skeptic, now the critic

Am
And you think that you finally

Am
Found a place of your own

            F
Amongst the cold and timid souls

           Dm
Where only failure knows your name

Am
Look around for the closest to blame

Am
But look no further than the

                    F
Hands beneath your arms

F
And now you're six feet down

Dm                             Am
Buried with, with your passing fame, fame, fame, fame
[Chorus]
Am
Innocence gone

                           F
Never take friendship personal

                             Dm
If you can't hold yourself together

                          Am
Why should I hold you now?

Am
In a sense gone

                           F
Never take friendship personal

                             Dm
If you can't hold yourself together

                         Am   F  D   Am  F  D  
Why should I hold you now?
[Bridge]
Am
Oh, oh, oh, you lie

G                                             Am
Tell me something more than what you tried to hide

Am
If you can't find yourself

Em               F
Then how can I expect to find you

Am
Oh, oh, oh, you cry

G
Tell me something more than what you try

F
The greatest tragedy is not your death

      Dm
But a life without reason

Am
Life has no purpose

Am
A life has no reason

Am
Your life has no purpose
[Chorus]
Am
Innocence gone

                           F
Never take friendship personal

                             Dm
If you can't hold yourself together

                          Am
Why should I hold you now?

Am
In a sense gone

                           F
Never take friendship personal

Why should I hold you now?

Am
In a sense gone

Never take friendship personal

                             Dm
If you can't hold yourself together

Dm
Why should I hold you now?
