I have some stories I

I have some deep regrets

Some things you don't forget

They haunt you for eternity

Things I could not control

And use you to enjoy themselves

But I don't fear that now

I found my own way out
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC G+G
And I will use those lessons well
C majorC G+G
Some specificities
B7B7 C majorC

And all the truth that I can tell

Verse :
C majorC G+G
I pace the dressing room
B7B7 C majorC
I feel myself consumed
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC G+G
By joy and fear for what's to come
C majorC G+G
My friends are playing now
B7B7 C majorC
Oh man, how good they sound
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC G+G
And my nerves burn until I'm numb
C majorC G+G
They play their biggest tune
B7B7 C majorC
Back here I sing it too
E minorEm D MajorD
And when they're done
C majorC G+G
I strum some chords
C majorC G+G
I tune up my guitar
B7B7 C majorC
Grab something from the bar
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC G+G
Then pace around a little more
C majorC G+G
I sing a little bit
B7B7 C majorC
I save the rest of it
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC G+G
For what's to come when I walk out
C majorC G+G
I'm nervous I'll admit
B7B7 C majorC
That's just a part of it
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC G+G
And honestly
I like that now
Instrumental:

Verse :
C majorC G+G
I take the stage and I
B7B7 C majorC
Collapse in fractured rhyme
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC G+G
Surrounded by a crowd of friends
C majorC G+G
They sing along with me
B7B7 C majorC
We trade the melody
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC G+G
And I hope that will never end
C majorC G+G
And then I go backstage
B7B7 C majorC
And my friends pair away
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC G+G
In cabs and cars and bikes and trains
C majorC G+G
And I find solitude
B7B7 C majorC
And I call home to you
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC G+G
And you call me your secret name
C majorC G+G
And I say what a show
B7B7 C majorC
You shoulda seen em though
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC G+G
I wish I could take them with me
C majorC G+G
And you just kinda laugh
B7B7 C majorC
Say I already have
E minorEm D MajorD
They're in you now
C majorC G+G
They'll always be
E minorEm D MajorD
They're in you now
C majorC G+G
They'll always be
C majorC G+G
I have some stories I
B7B7 C majorC
Would like to tell but I
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC G+G
Have sworn myself to secrecy
