[Verse 1]
Bm There might have been a better way (Might have been a better way, but now it's much too late!) Bm D But it doesn't really matter 'cause the ending isn't better based on price you pay Bm Everyone will hesitate (Everyone will hold their words back in) Bm D Babble on elucidate like anything is capable of stopping it D A Bm Everything is written, we're just reading the lines we're given, like wе were actors A Bm Hoping that we makе it to the curtain call A Bm A Bm We're fighting over bit parts, stepping on each others' toes A G F#m But the audience is eyein' the clock, 'cause they know how the story goes A N.C. And they're holding on to hope until it's gone
[Chorus]
Bm D A And everybody here will ignore us, 'til we grow enormous G F#m Bm We'll blot out the sun and the moon and the stars above Bm D A Then everyone will ask for forgiveness, they'll ask why we did this G F#m Bm But we won't know what to tell 'em, so we'll sing this song Bm D A While everybody stands in confusion, we'll find it amusin' G F#m Bm That they don’t know why they’re searching but they'll know they want more Bm D A When everybody's scars we've forgotten, the battles we fought them is G F#m Bm You'll make our rumors stand up while the others ignore
[Refrain]
Bm F#m (Why don't you hold your head up high?) G D (You got a lot on your plate, you got a lot on your mind!) Bm F#m (Why don't you hold your head up high?) G D (You got a lot on your plate, you got a lot on your mind!)

[Verse 2]
Bm Oh every single word I said (Every single thing we've ever done will fade away) Bm D Every single thought I ever thought already thought about by someone else Bm Braggin' 'bout our innocence (Braggin' 'bout the things we know away) Bm D Starin' like an idiot and hopin' other idiots will make some sense D A Bm Every now and then I hear somebody say they never meant for this to happen A Bm But do, pray tell, what the hell did you think would come? A Bm A Bm The psychopomp grows impatient, the horsemen are tapping their toes A G F#m But me and my cast we'll be watching from the deck, 'cause we know how the story goes F# Bm Yeah we've given up on hope because it's gone

[Verse 3]
N.C. (chords optional)
A Bm A Bm The liars and the bastards tried to shape us, the decent and the modest took the reins
N.C. (chords optional)
G D A Bm But I got everything I need, almost everything I want
strum once
G D A Bm A And the few things that I'm still missing I see on the horizon
N.C. (chords optional)
G D A Bm And it makes no difference who you are or who you know
N.C. (chords optional)
G F#m 'Cause you'll need to leave all the pleasantries when it's finally time to go
PM
A Bm What you know will turn to knew, what you have will turn to had
PM
A Bm What you are will turn to was, and the one will turn to ash
(open)
G D A Bm But I feel everyone I've lost, and I see everyone I love G D A Bm Every time I stop and slow my breath and stand for long enough G D A Bm And it makes no difference who you are or who you know G F# 'Cause you need to leave all the pleasantries when it's finally time to go G A And we take the stock of the things we've got 'cause we're always running low Bm And then they're gone
[Chorus]
Bm D A And everybody here will ignore us, 'til we grow enormous G F#m Bm We'll blot out the sun and the moon and the stars above Bm D A Then everyone will ask for forgiveness, they'll ask why we did this G F#m Bm But we won't know what to tell 'em, so we'll sing this song
