[Verse 1]
G G
Dreams, like coins down a well
D Em
Until I realized I was dumb for believing
Em
To the bird with no flight
D G
The skies don't ever offer respite
G
So I wandered off
D Em
And went to fill the holes if my shadows
Em
But everything costs
D C
The proof was etched into the backs of my hands
[Chorus 1]
C G Em D C
I heard you say that you'd lost, you'd lost, you'd lost, you'd lost your way
C G D D
But I don't think you had much to lose, that house was never built for you
C G Em D
And I ain't gonna hang my head for them, for them and I ain't gonna let them paint the truth as sin
C G D
And I ain't gonna tell you it's okay 'cause at the end of the day
D G
You were just something to blame
[Bridge 1]
G G D Em Em D x2
[Verse 2]
G G
Face, pressed into your hands
D Em
I couldn't tell if you were crying or laughing
Em
They both sound the same
D G
when you ain't got no skin in the game
G
So I took up the fight
D Em
And the roaring in my head was like thunder
Em
Until I uncurled my fists
D C
And allowed myself to not give a damn
[Chorus 2]
C G Em D C
I heard you say that we'd lost, we'd lost, we'd lost, we'd lost our way
C G D D
But I don't think we had much to lose that path was never built for us
C G Em D
And I ain't gonna hang my head for them, for them and I ain't gonna let them paint the truth as sin
C G D
And I ain't gonna tell you it's okay when at the end of the day
D G
You were just something to blame
[Outro]
G G D Em Em D x2
