Chords

[Intro] Am C Am [Verse 1]
   C
Looking out the window at a world on fire

              Am
It's plain to see, the end is near

     C
seen all the sights, I'm tired of the lights

   Am
So you can let me off right here

     C
This town's getting crowded, truth's been shrouded

        Am
I think it's time to change up the sound

          G
Yeah, the wheels keep turning, flames gettin' higher

  F
Another cycle goes around
[Chorus]
     C
Face in the mirror's all skin and bones

     F               Am
Bloodshot eyes and a heart of stone

     G
Over the game, rather be alone

      F                                             C
Think I'm gonna just stay home and make art not friends
Am C Am [Verse 2]
  C
I love saying "no" to all the "yes" men

        Am
Just to see the look on their face

     C
Love how everybody knows what's best

   Am
But nobody knows their place

       C
Sucker every second, stack 'em up to the sky

Am
For every winner, there's a hundred that die

G
So you get yours, and stay out of mine

F
Here's to the memories, where do I sign?
[Chorus]
     C
Face in the mirror's all skin and bones

     F               Am
Bloodshot eyes and a heart of stone

     G
Over the game, rather be alone

      F                                             C
Think I'm gonna just stay home and make art not friends
Am Am [Bridge]
F                               C
Oh, it's getting hard to find a good friend

                  Am
So close the door behind you

F               C
Before any more come in

F              G
Nobody writes, nobody calls

Am
Nobody bother, 'cause I'm over it all
Am [Chorus]
          C
Face in the mirror's all skin and bones

     F               Am
Bloodshot eyes and a heart of stone

     G
Over the game, rather be alone

      F                                             C
Think I'm gonna just stay home and make art not friends
Am
