Verse 1:

C majorC      FF         C majorC
All of these fathers with their bald spots
G+G      FF            C majorC
Pull to the car line dropping kids off
Dm7Dm7          G+G          C majorC
the sons and daughters of their parents wounds
FF            G+G
Parents of their own

Chorus:

FF        G+G         C majorC
It’d make some sense if some were made to me
FF      G+G        C majorC
Sometimes I don't see love in anything
  Dm7Dm7      G+G      C majorC
And just when I surrender to my shadow
    Dm7Dm7     G+G
I snap out of it,
  FF   G+G   C majorC
and step into the light
    FF   G+G   C majorC
I step back into the light

Verse 2:

C majorC      FF           C majorC
Sometimes my mind feels like a valley
G+G  FF        C majorC
So I take it to the bar
    Dm7Dm7     G+G
Fill it up like an ocean
  C majorC         FF
To drown my troubles in
     C majorC          G+G       C majorC
Just to find out what good swimmers they are

Chorus:

FF        G+G         C majorC
It’d make some sense if some were made to me
FF      G+G        C majorC
Sometimes I don't see love in anything
  Dm7Dm7      G+G       C majorC
And just when I surrender to my shadow
    Dm7Dm7     G+G
I snap out of it,
  FF   G+G   C majorC
and step into the light
    FF   G+G   C majorC
I step back into the light

Verse 3:

C majorC    FF           C majorC
When my dreams feel like a rusty rail
G+G       FF        C majorC
That I slapped on a coat of paint
Dm7Dm7     G+G              C majorC
As the layer cracked and chipped and failed
   Dm7Dm7              G+G
This wretched lie is all that remains

Chorus:

FF        G+G         C majorC
It’d make some sense if some were made to me
FF      G+G        C majorC
Sometimes I don't see love in anything
  Dm7Dm7      G+G      C majorC
And just when I surrender to my shadow
    Dm7Dm7     G+G
I snap out of it,
  Dm7Dm7     G+G
I snap out of it,
  FF   G+G   C majorC
and step into the light
    FF   G+G   C majorC
I step back into the light
  FF   G+G   C majorC
and step into the light
    Dm7Dm7  G+G
I step back
G+G    C majorC
into the light
