          D                         E
From confidence to self doubt in 60 seconds.

         G                   D
Storming stages and stereos
from here to there,
Hm                        D
 trying to prove that I belong.

          E           G      D
Trying to win approval  from people that I don't know.

Chorus:                                             Bm:
G         Bm     Hm                             e:--6--
And I look so strong H:--6-- D G G:--6-- when the weight of all the world D:--8-- A D A:--8-- don't take it's toll. E:--6--
G           Bm        Hm
    And I'd choose my sides

       E                  G
if I believed in what was right,

    A       D
but I'm all wrong.

Hm                                              D
  I'm not larger than life, I'm not taller than trees.

                                        E
Do I mean what I say? Is it just this disease

G                 D
 where I never go home.

Hm                                            D
  Never telling the truth how this life eats away.
Not admitting I'm fake
        E                        G
and I'm questioning whether this whole thing was worth it

   D
to die poor and all alone?

D    C#  A   Hm              A
this doesn't mean the world,

          D
'cause my ears would bleed

    F# E     D     H   A   D
and my heart would hit the floor.
Chorus: Slow it down at the end and finish it of with a D This is how I play this song and I think it sounds right... at least if you play it alone! Any questions or coments send them to [email protected]
