Chords with lyrics

Intro 3x: BB C# minorC#m G# minorG#m E MajorE

(Bass: G# minorG#m E MajorE BB)

Verso:

 BB
I woke up today
Surrounded by blackness
  E MajorE
A augmentedA small warning sign
Devoured the process
   F#F#
It's always been fine
I get up and ignore this
  BB
And it's hard to say

But I feel all of

this weightless
    E MajorE
But the more that I admit
I feel up and anxious
    F#F#
And the more I go on
The less I can face this
  BB
And those rotten things
That live in our shadow
  E MajorE
We walk on the line
Of death and the gallows
  F#F#
And hope that we're clear
I bet we can follow

Refrão:

     BB   F#F#  C# minorC#m
It's the worst damn day
(doesn't hurt that much)
G# minorG#m EbmEbm E MajorE
Of my life
     BB  F#F# C# minorC#m
I made a mess to-day
(doesn't hurt that much)
  G# minorG#m EbmEbm E MajorE
But I'm al--right

Verso:

BB
When I was young
The world it was smaller
  E MajorE
The cities were vast
The buildings were taller
 F#F#
I felt really strong
My parents seem stronger
  BB
My life has a way
Showers with greatness
   E MajorE
Then takes it away
The pieces that made us
   F#F#
Those dangerous things
You'd never imagine
  BB
We all get the same
The memories that burn
      E MajorE
And those pictures we made
They still form a pattern
   F#F#
They courteously say
Does it not matter?

     BB   F#F#  C# minorC#m
It's the worst damn day
(doesn't hurt that much)
G# minorG#m EbmEbm E MajorE
Of my life
     BB  F#F# C# minorC#m
I made a mess to-day
(doesn't hurt that much)
  G# minorG#m EbmEbm E MajorE
But I'm al--right

Ponte 2x: G# minorG#m E- B- F#F#
