[Intro] C Am [Verse 1]
C/G                   
I can't blame you, and I can't save you

            Am
But I will try

                          C/G
For you and I, for you and I-
won't find out all the dirty little things that you've done
             Am
But I will try I, I
[Pre-Chorus 1]
                   C/G
I'm coming for you giants and you liars and your chariots of fire

                                                            Am
You charmers with your anecdotes have started to show your true colors
[Chorus]
              F                                                G
And now I'm staring at the moon wondering why the bottom fell out

                   Em                                  F
Been searching for answers and there's questions I've found

                                          G
Open your eyes and share this burden somehow

                       Em                      A
Are you ready to drink or are you waiting to drown?
[Interlude] A [Verse 2]
C/G                                               Am
I would break you before I let you fall into the blind
C/G here (rhythm change) For you and I, for you and I will breathe in all the truth I can stomach
                 Am
If it keeps you alive I, I
[Pre-Chorus 2]
C/G
We've changed the dreamers and the preachers and the wise men on the hill

                                                                   Am
To concrete stepping smilers terrified to lose their power and control

                 C/G
Yeah, we've been crying for a leader to speak like the old prophets

                                                                    Am
The blood of the forgotten wasn't spilled without a purpose, or was it?
[Chorus]
            F                                                    G
And now I'm staring at the moon wondering why the bottom fell out

                   Em                                      F
Been searching for answers and there's questions I've found

                                            G
Open your eyes and share this burden somehow

                  Em
Are you ready to drink or are you waiting to drown?
A Db C F C F E A Db C F C D E [Outro]
A                       Db                         C
 Yeah, you'll never be whole, yeah, you'll never be whole
Until you lose control
F                  C
And think freely to smash the wall of apathy

D                              E                                 A
Stop your self-importance and lift the weight off somebody else

                       Db                            C
Yeah, you'll never be whole, yeah, you'll never be whole
Until you lose control
F                      C
And stop drinking the wine that's been dripping

      D                                             E
From lips of the gluttons and envying their bloody teeth

A                         Db                         C
 Yeah, you'll never be whole, yeah, you'll never be whole

                      F      C      D      E
Until you lose control
