==VERSE==
Bm A F#m D Giving up everything, my hungry ghost of hopefulness Bm A F#m D F#m D F#m D Giving up everything, not haunted by wanting this Bm A F#m D Giving up everything, the fortune I was saving Bm A F#m D F#m D F#m D Giving up everything, I mercy-killed my craving Bm A F#m D Giving up everything, I've opened up my eyes for this Bm A F#m D Giving up everything, see the whole magnificent emptiness
`
`
==BRIDGE==
F#m D Gave what I want for how it is, F#m D for the stone inside and the bitterness, F#m D for the sweetness at the core of it Bm A F#m D (x2) `
`
==VERSE==
Bm A F#m D Giving up everything, the master plan, the scheming Bm A F#m D Giving up everything, my cursed search for meaning Bm A F#m D Giving up everything, the compass and the map I was reading F#m D F#m D Bm (Break) The hinterlands I'm leaving, I'm finally leaving behind
`
`
==OUTRO==
Bm A F#m D Giving up everything, the big to-do, the hullabaloo, F#m D the tug-of-war for some twisted truth. F#m D For the everlasting ache of it F#m D no longer slave, not chained to it F#m D no gate, no guard, no keeper, F#m D F#m D no guru, master, teacher F#m D See the slow-receding faces
Bm (stop)
