🎸 Verse 1: (PM)
               C              Bm
Well, it's not fair, it's not even close
    Em   F# Gm              C                  Bm
You tied me down, where I'm forced to watch as you poke holes
   Em    F#     Gm     C                 Bm
In every part of me containing something secretly
Bm                   C
 Something sacred to me

🎸 Chorus:
Em Bm               C                Gm      F#  Em
 I lied my face off when I said that I would be okay
     Bm                  C
It's never fine when you go away
Em              Bm                   C
 These cuts run deep, these scars are permanent
    Gm     F#    Em
And always on display
Bm                 C            Gm F#
 This makes things difficult for me

🎸 Verse 2: (PM)
Em F# Gm        C              Bm
       It's not fair, it's not even close
    Em  F#     Gm             C             Bm
You fed me the sun, burned me up inside and watched me choke
   Em   F#       Gm      C             Bm
On everything we did, on everything we lived
Bm                        C
 Let's see if I can live again

🎸 Chorus:
Em Bm               C                Gm      F#  Em
 I lied my face off when I said that I would be okay
     Bm                  C
It's never fine when you go away
Em              Bm                   C
 These cuts run deep, these scars are permanent
    Gm     F#    Em
And always on display
Bm                 C            Gm F#
 This makes things difficult for me

🎸 Bridge 1:
Em Bm
Em            Bm             C
 Head like an empty, sterile room
          D
Somehow I made a mess
Em              Bm             C
  Like watching newborn babies crack
            D
From work-related stress
Em            Bm             C
 Head like an empty, sterile room
          D
Somehow I made a mess
Em              Bm             C
  Like watching newborn babies crack
            D
From work-related stress
    Em       Bm
I'm bad luck, can't fuck
    C    D          Em
Got no reflection today
      Bm
Maybe I'll stay down
     C          D        Em Bm C D      Em   Bm C D
Next time I get hit by a train     By a train

🎸 Chorus:
Em Bm               C                Gm      F#  Em
 I lied my face off when I said that I would be okay
     Bm                  C       Gm F# Em
It's never fine when you go away
