Marianas Trench – Alibis (Ukulele)

C                          Am
From the scrapes and bruises 

                    F
To the familiar abuses  

                 C                 G                F
I'll kick and scream but it never changes anything 

C                       Am
I could spill my guts out 

                               F
Wearing my best little girl pout 

                     C
And I almost missed it  

            G                             F
But nobody said that this was gonna be easy 

                 C
This is not the man I hoped to be, and

           Am
I'm just trying to stop the bleeding 

      F        
I don't know how to word it 

         C
I just started to deserve it 

    C                           F
And all my, all my faces are alibis

             F
And me, I'm half the man I wanted to be 

C                               Am
Most times it all comes out wrong

                                      F
I don't know the words but I'll hum along 

                     C                 G
There's nothing familiar here anymore 

                  F                   C
to anyone or anything left to feel alive 

C                              Am
And I still taste that sickness 

                                        F
And it makes me crazy without it at best 

                     C                   G
But I'm in the same place I used to be 

                F
But I'm trying harder not to be 

                 C
This is not the man I hoped to be 

               Am
And I'm just trying to stop the bleeding 

   F
I don't know how to word it 

         C
I just started to deserve it 

   C                           F
And all my, all my faces are alibis 

             F
And me, I'm half the man I wanted to be 

Dm                          F
So what am I? What am I? So what am I? 

      C                          Am
And all my, all my faces are alibis 

                 C
This is not the man I hoped to be 

         Am
And I'm just trying to stop the bleeding 

     F
I don't know how the words go 

          G
I just started not to say no 

C
Don't want it, Don't get it 

       C
I know you won't regret it

 Am
Don't surface, Don't surface 

      Am
And I feel so damned worthless 

          F              C                F      
Another day is gone and all my faces are alibis 

 C                  F
all my faces are alibis 

     F                          C  Am  F
I'm half the man I wanted to be
