Verse 1:
F
I hate the dust that fills the air
          A#maj7
And I act like I just don’t care

But I’m jealous, and I do
  F
I put my boots on just like them
    A#maj7
But they don’t have to play pretend
    F                      A#maj7
And I’m jealous, cause I do

Pre-Chorus:

But no ones cheering for me in the crowd
                   Dm
I wrestle with the bulls

Till they take me down, there’s no

I couldn’t handle confrontation

  F
I had my shots, had my chances

Never made it 7 seconds

I regret it, I really do

             Dm                     A

Not who I am

What I became
