[Verse 1]
C C Bb F This town ain't big enough for both of us C Bb F So don't sleep on the things that my hands have done C Bb F The flora and the fire keep lighting up the distance C Bb F Careful with your mouth don't let it run F G Am Out of sight, out of mind Abaug F Dug my heels into the earth G Am Abaug It was safe, it was mine, but this is where the way turns
[Chorus 1]
C Bb F Take it while you get it, toss this and forget it C Bb F As you swallow your seat and son C Bb You're plagued with pride of fathers F Long since dead behind you C Bb F Careful with your feet don't let them run
[Verse 2]
F G Am You can camouflage, you can lock up, and you can stow away Abaug But it is to question one's self in a hideout to leave the cover F The cursed will stay away G Am And in my hard heart I tried to block out and to blot out and obstruct the clouds Abaug But the shroud, the bell, the blanket and the envelope will eclipse them now
[Pre-Chorus 1]
F G Standing where the water meets the shore you feel the sun Am Abaug Touch your face and leave its mark with nowhere left to run F G To hide your shaking hands and words that swore this was the day Am Abaug You never feel as weak as when the answers go away
[Chorus 2]
F G I was caught in the current; it's a lesson, and I've learned it Am Abaug The teacher left scars on our fists
(I'm the worst, I'm the worst, just please leave me here)
F G There's pain we never speak of, second guess the ones that we love Am Abaug And the last thing you want is for your last words to sound so scared Am Em Am Em Am Em But you find yourself here, alone and scared Am Em Am Em Am Em Am Em Am Em Will they leave You here, Will You leave me here?
[Bridge]
C The best part of that G Is I want it back F The best things to say, I want to say C G F That all this time I was wrong C The water's deep G As they find their sleep F And I begged for less
But I second guessed
C G That you would come F After me
[Outro]
(The past still waits)
C/E Dm G Am Em C Dm It's the pain we ne-ver speak of
(To catch my eye)
C/E Dm G Am Em C Dm Se - cond guess the ones that we love
(And I never stopped)
C/E Dm G Am Em C Dm All the words and our con-fessions
(To question)
C/E Dm G Am Em C Dm I ne- ver thought that I should question Am Em To question why
Am Em (x3)
C/E Dm G Am Em C Dm
