Chords with lyrics

Tuning: Standard (E MajorE A augmentedA D MajorD G+G BB E MajorE)

Key: C majorC

Difficulty: Novice

Verse 1:
         D MajorD
Well, I felt the burn
                        G+G
Since the day you departed and talked from the tomb
              D MajorD
I'm still healing those wounds

And it holds me down
        G+G                G+G
But made me a man that says, "Fuck all those rules
          D MajorD
I will be who I choose"

Verse 2:
        A augmentedA
It's a lonely road
      B minorBm       G+G             D MajorD
With one grip on several psalms and one grip on the gun
         A augmentedA
And it holds the rope
     D MajorD    B minorBm          G+G
It spins me in circles and dizzies my head
               D MajorD
Then says sleep when you're dead


Verse 3:
 D MajorD       A augmentedA
Were you ever here?
            B minorBm           G+G
Or just lost on the surface that at the first touch
          D MajorD
Just evades in the dust

And it pulled me down
          B minorBm          G+G
And showed me my demons lined up in a sequence
      D MajorD
Forming a crowd
      A augmentedA
It was so long
     B minorBm               G+G       D MajorD
With a piece of happy home that they stripped from the bone
      A augmentedA
I did not react
         B minorBm          G+G
I settled my grievance by crafting a mask
           D MajorD
And I never looked back

G+G  D MajorD  A augmentedA

Bridge:
          A augmentedA
Tell me what you know
     B minorBm    A augmentedA
I'm in deeper than I've ever been
        G+G
I will never grow
 A augmentedA      B minorBm     A augmentedA     G+G
While this anchor is chained to my feet
 FF         G+G    FF
Tell me what you know
 FF    B minorBm     D MajorD
I'm in deeper than I've ever been
G+G
I will never grow
       G+G     B minorBm     G+G
While this anchor is chained to my feet

Tell me what you know
         B minorBm       D MajorD    G+G
I settled my grievance by crafting a mask

And I never looked-
G+G
I will never grow
D MajorD        B minorBm          D MajorD
I settled my grievance by crafting a mask

And I never looked-
G+G
Tell me what you know
D MajorD        B minorBm          D MajorD
I settled my grievance by crafting a mask

And I never looked-
G+G
I will never grow
D MajorD        B minorBm          D MajorD
I settled my grievance by crafting a mask
           FF
And I never looked back
