F        C       F          C                          Am          F                  C
I wasn't higher, than I was supposed to be.....But the walls froze through, then they shatter

F             C         F             C                        Am        F           C       F  C
I'm partially peaceful, sitting in an empty room.....While the lights outside, never matter

G7        C                  F              G7    C                 F
There's a bitter pill on the other side.....Smoky shaded space in a double-wide

         Am   G7     C          F      G7       Am       C  F  C  F  Am  F  C
We could come to the middle.....Let it all pass through
[Verse 2]
F        C            F              C                       Am     F                  C
I'm a pretender, it's like bein' the morning sun.....All the lies I live, they make me wonder

F       C       F                  C                       Am      F            C        F  C
I had a bottle, filled it with the only one.....That could turn my nights, into thunder

G7    C                F               G7    C                    F
How I wish it could be another way.....And I wouldn't stumble and go away

             Am  G7     C             F       G7  Am    C  F  C  F  Am  F  C
It makes you cry just a little, if it does us any good
[Verse 3]
F             C        F                C                       Am          F           C
I’m shaping a madness, then it seems to mirror me.....While the world spins faster than ever

F             C            F          C                          Am      F                 C       F  C
They say it's burning, the things you need to say.....You better get out now, while you're limber

G7      C                 F              G7        C                 F
Morning never cuts like I want it to.....There's a canyon in between me and you

            Am    G7     C              F     G7     Am    C  F  C  F  Am  F  C  F  C
And I would bleed just a little.....And never be the same
[Verse 4]
F           C      F          C                          Am         F            C
Why am I so tired, when all I do is sleep?.....Is it the same dream that, I keep having?

F              C        F          C                            Am    F           C        F  C
You were there with me, lying in a naked seat.....But there was ample shelter and padding

G7      C                  F                   G7      C                  F
But the wind whispers in a darkened street.....Selling simple warnings to you and me

            Am  G7     C            F      G7    Am   C  F  C  F  Am  F  C
It makes me die just a little.....A little every day
[Outro]
         Am   G7     C          F      G7       Am       C  F  C  F  Am  F  C  F  C  F  C
We could come to the middle.....Let it all pass through
