Chords

[Intro] D A Bm G A [Verse 1]
   D                         A
If all mistakes were made in stone

                    Bm
I'd build a wall so tall, you'd see for miles

    G             A                   D
And every man and child would come to see

                   A
Stand and laugh at me

                     Bm
Like you would not believe and I can't blame them
[Pre-Chorus]
     G           A                 F#m
It's kinda funny when you start to think about the kind of fool

    G                                D
Who breaks his heart as often as the moon

                  A
Shows its face to you

    F#m                      G                                   D
And I regret to say politely I'm the guy who'll more than likely lose

              A
Like I always do
[Chorus]
                   D
So tell me are you running scared

                           A
'Cause you know that I'm beyond repair?

      Bm          F#m           G              A              D
Well, baby, I'm a master of the ancient art of always fucking up

                A
Everything I've ever loved

         Bm                   F#m          G              A              D
'Cause I wrote the books, the study of the ancient art of always fucking up
[Verse 2]
    D                       A
May I, have your attention, please?

                  Bm
Step right up and see the most amazing

    G          A              D
The absolutely mind-inflaming show

                         A
About a boy who sold his soul

                            Bm
For a shot at love and gold

                          G              A
And he almost made it but lost it on the way
[Pre-Chorus]
          F#m
The story goes, now he's the kind of fool

    G                                D
Who breaks his heart as often as the moon

                  A
Shows its face to you

    F#m                      G                                   D
And I regret to say politely I'm the guy who'll more than likely lose

              A
Like I always do
[Chorus]
                   D
So tell me are you running scared

                           A
'Cause you know that I'm beyond repair?

      Bm          F#m           G              A              D
Well, baby, I'm a master of the ancient art of always fucking up

                A
Everything I've ever loved

     Bm                F#m
They fall from me like autumn leaves

    G              A                D                        A
The wake I make it scattered with debris, of everything that could have been

         Bm                   F#m          G              A              Bm
'Cause I wrote the books, the study of the ancient art of always fucking up
[Bridge]
                    A                  G
And I'm bleak by design, forget all my lines

                   A
I've burned all my blessings more than half the time

Bm                   A                          G
  Been trapped in my ways, but I'm desperate to change

                             A
So let me know if you'll stay
[Chorus]
                   D
So tell me are you running scared

                           A
'Cause you know that I'm beyond repair?

      Bm          F#m           G              A              D
Well, baby, I'm a master of the ancient art of always fucking up

                A
Everything I've ever loved

         Bm                   F#m          G              A              D
'Cause I wrote the books, the study of the ancient art of always fucking up
