[Verse 1]
Em       Em/F#         Em/G          B7
After it happened when all the smoke cleared

Em         Em/F#        Em/G        B7
How did it feel to you, did it seem weird?

       C
Such a charmed life

             G
Nothing ever mattered

               C        B7
Everything was yours to take

C       B7
One mis-take, and

Em         Em/F#       Em/G       B7
Everything fell apart, everything changed

Em             Em/F#         Em/G     B7
Sitting there, bleeding out, isn't it strange?

          C
When they hit you

                  G
You can feel them hit you

                C       B7
Weaknesses they all can see

C         B7
Just like me
[Chorus 1]
         E           Emaj7          E7                 A
Now your heart's all done, but your head won't let you run

                       E
You're dying where you stand

         E        Emaj7
All this wait and see

         E7                A
All this what will be will be

                      B                  Em
That sounds like the plan of an Ordinary Man

[Bridge]
        Am                   A
You say no one tells you the ending

       D         Dm
But it ends this way

        Am                  A
You can take it back if you want it

       D        Dm       E
But it might be over any-way

[Verse 2]
Em          Em/F#       Em/G      B7
Haven't you done enough saving by now?

Em              Em/F#        Em/G       B7
Can't they take care of each other some-how?

        C
All the questions

             G
Is it really over?

            C        B7
Is he gonna take the fall?

C        B7
Worst of all you

Em             Em/F#         Em/G        B7
Start to think maybe they're right about you

Em         Em/F#     Em/G       B7
Maybe it's over now, maybe it's true

        C
And you know you're

            G
Never gonna stand up

              C           B7
Be who you're supposed to be

C         B7
Just like me
[Chorus 2]
            E           Emaj7          E7                 A
'Cause your heart's all done, but your head won't let you run

                       E
You're dying where you stand

         E        Emaj7
All this wait and see

         E7                A
All this what will be will be

                     B          Em
