Chords with lyrics

verse 1

D MajorD             D MajorD
This place is dragging me down
  B minorBm   F# minorF#m   G+G      A augmentedA  E MajorE
A augmentedA hamster wheel I thought I'd be done by now
D MajorD              D MajorD
Now that all my allies are gone
 B minorBm F# minorF#m G+G     A augmentedA  E MajorE      E MajorE
I realize advancing could hold you back


BB  D MajorD   F# minorF#m   G+G     A augmentedA    A#A#   BB
My good intentions just keep sliding by the wayside
G+G  D MajorD    F# minorF#m   G+G    A augmentedA   C#C#    D MajorD
But its high tide and they get washed away with time
   BB      G+G      BB      G+G
Until everything's gone until everything's gone

verse 2
D MajorD                   D MajorD
I was flying along the Long Island sound
    B minorBm   F# minorF#m  G+G     A augmentedA    E MajorE
But fine's polite I'd rather things more profound
D MajorD                         D MajorD
I've become a rock these days and I swim like one
       B minorBm     F# minorF#m  G+G     A augmentedA   E MajorE       E MajorE
Alone again barely surviving the tidal wave

BB  D MajorD   F# minorF#m   G+G    A augmentedA    A#A#   BB
My good intentions just keep sliding by the wayside
G+G   D MajorD   F# minorF#m    G+G   A augmentedA   C#C#    D MajorD
But its high tide and they get washed away with time
    BB     G+G      BB      G+G
Until everything's gone until everything's gone

 F# minorF#m          G+G       A augmentedA
I swear damn it all to hell damn it all to hell

 D MajorD        F# minorF#m    BB      A augmentedA
I think I finally found the way to go to heaven
    D MajorD         F# minorF#m     BB        A augmentedA
Without dying so I'm on my way
  E MajorE     F# minorF#m    G+G     A augmentedA
The harder you work the harder you fall
  E MajorE      F# minorF#m   G+G     A augmentedA
You wake up one day with nothing at all


BB  D MajorD F# minorF#m    G+G     A augmentedA    A#A#   BB
My good intentions just keep sliding by the wayside
G+G  D MajorD    F# minorF#m   G+G     A augmentedA   C#C#    D MajorD
But its high tide and they get washed away with time
   BB      G+G      BB      G+G
Until everything's gone until everything's gone
   BB      G+G      BB      G+G
Until everything's gone until everything's gone
 F# minorF#m          G+G
I swear damn it all to hell
