[INTRO]
Em7 - Cadd9 D
[VERSE]
Em7 I was born inside a small town, I've lost that state of mind Cadd9 D Learned to sing inside the Lord's house, but stopped at the age of nine G Em7 I forget when I get awards now the wave I had to ride Cadd9 D The paving stones I played upon, they kept me on the grind G Em7 So blame it on the pain that blessed me with the life Cadd9 D Friends and family filled with envy when they should be filled with pride G Em7 And when the world's against me is when I really come alive Cadd9 D And everyday that Satan tempts me, I try to take it in my stride G Em7 You know that I've got whisky with white lines and smoke in my lungs Cadd9 D I think life has got to the point I know without it's no fun G Em7 I need to get in the right mind and clear myself up Cadd9 D Instead, I look in the mirror questioning what I've become G Em7 I guess it's a stereotypical day for someone like me Cadd9 D Without a nine-to-five job or an uni degree G Em7 To be caught up in the trappings of the industry Cadd9 D They showed me the locked doors I find another use for the key, and you'll see
[CHORUS]
Cadd9 G D D/A I'm well aware of certain things that can destroy a man like me Cadd9 G B7 Em7 But with that said give me one more, higher Cadd9 D Em7 Another one to take the sting away Cadd9 D Em7 I am happy on my own, so here I'll stay Cadd9 D Em7 Save your lovin' arms for a rainy day Cadd9 D And I'll find comfort in my pain, eraser
[VERSE]
Em7 I used to think that nothing could be better than touring the world with my songs Cadd9 D I chased the pictured perfect life, I think they painted it wrong G Em7 I think that money is the root of evil and fame is hell Cadd9 D G Relationships and hearts you fixed, they break as well Em7 And ain't nobody wanna see you down in the dumps Cadd9 D Because you're living your dream, man, this shit should be fun G Em7 Please know that I'm not trying to preach like I'm Reverend Run Cadd9 D I beg you, don't be disappointed with the man I've become Em7 Our conversations with my father on the A14 Cadd9 D Age twelve telling me I've gotta chase those dreams G Em7 Now I'm playing for the people, dad, and they know me Cadd9 D With my beat and small guitar wearing the same old jeans Em7 Wembley Stadium crowd two hundred and forty thousand Cadd9 D I may have grown up but I hope that Damien's proud G Em7 And to the next generation, inspiration's allowed Cadd9 D The world may be filled with hate but keep erasing it now, somehow
[CHORUS]
Cadd9 G D D/A I'm well aware of certain things that will befall a man like me Cadd9 G B7 Em7 But with that said give me one more, higher Cadd9 D Em7 Another one to take the sting away Cadd9 D Em7 I am happy on my own, so here I'll stay Cadd9 D Em7 Save your lovin' arms for a rainy day Cadd9 D Em7 And I'll find comfort in my pain eraser Cadd9 D Em7 And I'll find comfort in my pain eraser Cadd9 D And I'll find comfort in my pain eraser
[BRIDGE]
Em7 Welcome to the new show Cadd9 D I guess you know I've been away Em7 But where I'm heading, who knows Cadd9 D But my heart will stay the same Em7 Welcome to the new show Cadd9 D I guess you know I've been away Em7 But where I'm heading, who knows Cadd9 My pain eraser
