Chords

[Verse 1]
  G#m                       F#
Thinning airflow through a narrow hallway

   G#m                               F#
Hanging heads from the billboards, hoping to entertain

                    E
I hear the circle resonate

                  C#m
You're all nameless faces to me

                    G#m
I'm merely a short daydream

               F#
I helped you get through nothing
[Chorus]
                     G#m
And if you look real close

                     B
Hands held under the thorns

                     D#m
Keep you proud and me unknown

                     C#
I'm your toy when things get shallow

                 G#m     F#       G#m     F#
I'm under your control
[Verse 2]
G#m                                       F#
Press your face to wood floor, you're the grain

G#m                                       F#
Here's a savior for when you don't feel anything

                     E
I am what you want me to be

                        C#m
Ripped right out in front of me

                            G#m
I was on the edge of your everything

                      F#
Now something gets in the way

                      E
Innocence sedates your memory

                  C#m
The misbelief in anything

                   G#m
I see you on every city street

                    F#
Looking for me to fix your pain
[Chorus]
                      G#m
And if you look real close

                      B
Hands held under the thorns

                       D#m
Keep you proud and me unknown

                       C#m
I'm your toy when things get shallow

             G#m
It swallows everyone

                         B                       D#m
You don't hold enough to show anything for what you've done

                              C#m
I'm your toy when things get shallow
I'm under your control [Interlude] G#m C#m G#m C#m [Bridge]
B
I've wished for this

          G#m
Well, my attention comes and goes ever since

B
And I've dreamt of this

            G#m                                B
Well, it is never clean behind the film we're staring at
[Chorus]
                      G#m
And if you look real close

                     B
Hands held under the thorns

                       D#m
Keep you proud and me unknown

                        C#m
I'm your toy when things get shallow
It swallows everyone
G#m                       B                            D#m
You don't hold enough to show anything for what you've done

                              C#
I'm your toy when things get shallow

                G#m
I'm under your control
