[Intro]
| Em | Em | Em | Em | x 2
Em
Taping up these holey boots, to keep from getting wet.
D
I wonder if these clouds present a promise or a threat.
Am
Wailing on a thing, and thinks that I haven't thought of yet.
C D Em
Waiting out for something more than that.
Em
Tongue tired, and over tied up, silencing these sounds
D
Hell-bent, obsessed with sounding clever and profound
Am
Realizing that the bottle's already halfway down.
C D Em Dsus2/F#
And when its down, I guess its down...
G D
Well, at least I've tricked the ceiling (and myself) into believing its the sky.
Am C Em Dsus2/F#
When the beach was my backyard, well then I'd laugh so goddamn hard until I cried.
G D
Staring out the window, feeling dead and watching wind blow up the sand.
Am C G Dsus2/F#
When my eyes catch my reflection, I realize I am not much of a man.
Em
Purging all the parts and pieces that ain't worth a shit
D
Burning over, trying to get the smallest slot to fit
Am
Something tells me that it's not the last I've heard of it
C D Em
Making room for something less than this.
Em
Sorting out the ones to burn and the ones I'd maybe fix
D
Thinking of the ones I lost, and add them to the list
Am
Trying not to think to hard of the ones I might've missed
C D Em Dsus2/F#
Cause when they're gone I guess they're gone.
G D
Turn me sour from sweetness, and I turn my strengths to weakness every night.
Am Em Dsus2/F#
And it's easier to forgive and to forget than it is to face it and to fight.
G D
So I guess you best be leaving, and I'll just go along believing best I can.
Am C G
It's when I get to drinking that I realize I am not much of a man.
