E B A B (x2)
[Verse 1]
E Tossed around like sea glass and you rounded out my edges. (A) (B) I'll feel better when the headaches go away. E C#m I got a scar across my forehead, turning purple in the cold A From a night at Shore Memorial. B I was 16 and afraid. A B Turned away, like I'm working baby face E D A Out of Mid-South in the 80's. E B I kept a blade hidden in my wrist tape.
[Chorus]
E A I think I'm growing into someone you could trust. E B/D# C#m I want to shoulder the weight until my back breaks, G#m A I want to run until my lungs give up. C#m E If I could manage not to fuck this up. B If I could manage not to fuck this up. A I think enough is enough.
[Verse 2]
E C#m Hidden in the tall grass in the naked light of day, A I put my past-self in the ground. B I've been dancing on the grave. E I'm not the person that I was then, A C#m I'm tearing him away. A I was bitter. I was careless. B I was 19 and afraid
[Pre-Chorus]
A E But you deserved more from me. A F#m I don't know why I would say those things. A E B But you deserved more from me and I'm trying every day.
[Chorus]
E A I think I'm growing into someone you could trust. E B/D# C#m I want to shoulder the weight until my back breaks, G#m A I want to run until my lungs give up. C#m E If I could manage not to fuck this up. B If I could manage not to fuck this up. A I think enough is enough.
[Bridge]
A You left me walking in circles. C#m B F#m B You were a shot in the dark. G#m C#m B You were the baby teeth I buried. G#m B You were the sounds of distant cars. C#m You left me walking in circles. B A You were a shot in the dark. F#m You were the banner that says "No One" G#m B That I tattooed across my heart. A C#m You left me walking in circles. B A You were a shot in the dark. F#m E You're scattered like ashes across every song that I write. B You're where the light pollution starts.
[Chorus]
E A I think I'm growing into someone you could trust. E B/D# C#m I want to shoulder the weight until my back breaks, G#m A I want to run until my lungs give up. C#m E If I could manage not to fuck this up. B If I could manage not to fuck this up. E A Enough is enough.
