Intro:
F* Gsus4* Fsus4* Asus4* Fsus4* Absus4* F* C


Verse:
       F                C
On the run since before ever after
Gm           Dm
Standard family disaster
Bb                Eb
Lovers, brothers, other bastards
F                C
Told me where to go
  F                   C
I shook my lumps then took off running
G                Dm
Short on wisdom, wits or cunning
Bb               Eb
One for all, but all for nothing
F          A
Into the unknown

Pre-Chorus:
Gm
There's no point to waste the blame
     Bb
I've never been strictly speaking sane
            F                                       C
I should've known fresh dirt won't wash old stains away


Verse:
  F                   C
I tried to drown your memory
   Gm                   Dm
It learned to swim, and clung to me
Bb                Eb
Kissed my cheek sadistically
    F                 C
And dragged me down below


Pre-Chorus:
Gm
There's no point to waste the blame
     Bb
I've never been strictly speaking sane
            F                                       C
I should've known fresh dirt won't wash old stains away


Chorus:
Bb
I was so angry then
Db
In psychic self-defense
F           Dm
Wasting energy
         Absus4               Gsus4
Fighting something I couldn't see
                F*    Gsus4* Fsus4* Asus4*
Just fighting myself


Verse:
N.C.   F                C
I know time unfolds and then it tangles
Gm                   Dm
Strings attached and feelings mangled
Bb                    Eb
Some threads severed, some still dangle
F                C
Some just drift away


Pre-Chorus:
Gm
There's no point to waste the blame
     Bb
I've never been strictly speaking sane
            F                                       C
I should've known fresh dirt won't wash old stains away


Chorus:
Bb
The last thing I tried to do
Db
Was end up hurting you
  F           Dm
I found my enemy
        Absus4                  Gsus4
Staring back from the mirror at me
                     F*
I've been fighting myself
Bb         F*
Fighting myself


Outro:
        Bb     Dm              Gm
There's nobody in the ring but me
  C                   Bb                 C
I broke some things I know just can't be fixed
        F                 C                Bb
While I fought for what I wanted more than anything
    C                Dm
You stuck around for kicks
