Standard Tuning
Capo on 2nd
Intro
Em G Am Em x2
Em G
There's three parts to love,
Am Em
Or so I believe.
Em G
There's a part of you you lose,
C D
And another you receive.
C G
Here I break with the concept,
Am Em
Though it's central to the piece.
Am C
Leave my mark on the canvas,
D Em
That only you can see.
Am
I deferred my happiness,
C D
For loneliness and time.
Am
But once I'm where I wanna be,
C D
You'll be far behind.
C G
All the lights in the sky,
Am Em
Are falling to the ground.
C G
And the chains that pull me down,
D
Slacken off when you're around.
C Em
As the line begins to blur.
Bm C
It's comforting to know,
Am C
But I'll rip out all the hooks
D Em
From my skin so I can grow.
Em G Am Em x2
G
There were times I disagreed,
Am Em
Just to hear you scream.
Em
You were right,
G C D
But I needed you to give emotion back to me.
C G
Here I break with the concept,
Am Em
Though it's just some disguise
Am C
And I know, the canvas
D Em
Will be ripped up, 'fore your eyes
Am
An' I deferred my happiness,
C D
For loneliness and time.
Am
But once I'm where I wanna be,
C D
I'm not needing you, I'm not feeling you!
C G
All the lights in the sky,
Am Em
Are falling to the ground.
C G
And the chains that pull me down,
D
Slacken off when you're around.
C Em
As the line begins to blur.
Bm C
It's comforting to know,
Am C
But I'll rip out all the hooks
D Em
From my skin so I can grow
C G
And all the lights in the sky
Am Em
Are falling to the ground
C G
And the chains that pull me down
D
They pull me down, they slacken off, when you're around
C Em
And the line begins to blur
Bm C
An' it's comforting to know
Am C D Em
But I'll rip out all the hooks from my skin so I can grow.
Am C D Em
But I'll rip out all the hooks from my skin so I can grow.
Am C D Em
No I will rip out all the love from my skin so I can grow.
