[Intro]
G C G C
[Verse 1]
G C You were a friend to me when my wheels were off the track Am C D7 And though you say there is no need I intend to pay you back G C When my mind was turning loose and all my thoughts were turning black Am C D7 You shined a light on me and I intend to pay it back
[Chorus]
C G 'Cause I still wake up shaken by dreams C G And I hate to say it but the way it seems C D7 G Is that no one is fine D7 G Em Take the time to peel a few layers and you will find C D G True sadness
[Verse 2]
G C When I was a child, I depended on a bottle Am C D Full-grown I've been known to lean on a bottle G C But you're the real deal in a world of imposters Am C D And I've seen the program make men out of monsters
[Chorus]
C G 'Cause I still wake up shaken by dreams C G And I hate to say it but the way it seems C D7 G Is that no one is fine D7 G Em Take the time to peel a few layers and you will find C D G True sadness
[Verse 3]
C G Angela became a target D G As soon as her beauty was seen C G By young men who try to reduce her down Em D7 To a scene on an X rated screen C G Is she not more than the curve of her hips? C G Is she not more than the shine on her lips? Em C Am Does she not dream to sing and to live and to dance down her own path D7 Without being torn apart? C Does she not have a heart?
[Verse 4]
G C I cannot go on with this evil inside me Am C D7 I step out my front door and I feel it surround me G C Just know the kingdom of God is within you Am C D7 Even though the battle is bound to continue
[Chorus]
C G 'Cause I still wake up shaken by dreams C G And I hate to say it but the way it seems C D7 G Is that no one is fine D7 G Em Take the time to peel a few layers and you will find Em C True sadness Em C True sadness C D G True true sadness
