[Intro] Em [Verse 1]
Em
Day by day it's been building in me

Em
Old men struggle lifting his feet

         Am
I'm not tied to you, I'm not tied

  Em
Wrapped up tight and won't let me go

 D
Tell myself that I'm cutting the rope

         C                    Am
I'm not tied to you, cut me open whole
[Chorus]
Em               G                 C             Am
I wanna bury my feelings until my mind escapes me

            Em                        G
I wear the war paint to fight off my demons

           C          Am
Until them all defy me

G                                      Em
Hunt and you'll hunt and you'll never find me
[Verse 2]
Em
Could be freedom, maybe it's greed

D
All them vultures want you to bleed

            C                 Am
You're not tied to what they see

Em
There's still time if you believe

Em                                                   C
Take a second, maybe suddenly you'll see you're not tied

              Am         Em
Take it, take it from me
[Chorus]
Em               G                 C             Am
I wanna bury my feelings until my mind escapes me

            Em                        G
I wear the war paint to fight off my demons

           C          Am
Until them all defy me

Em             G            C    Am
Don't you say go until it's over

               Em                          G
I'll wear the war paint just fight off my demons

          C
Until you all defy me

Am
Hunt and you'll hunt and you'll never find me
[Solo] Am Em Am Em Am Em Em C D Am x2 [Chorus]
Em                 G                                Am
I'm gonna bury my feelings until my mind escapes me

               Em                          G
I'll wear the war paint just fight off my demons

           C
Until them all defy me

Em                G                 C              Am
Satan, God, even Jesus, I've got em all behind me now
[Outro] Em G C Am x3 Em C Am Am Em
