Chords with lyrics
This is a great song.
Capo 3
G+G
I'll try just to stay out
C majorC
Of this decimated place
E minorEm D MajorD
That left a bad taste in my mouth
E minorEm C majorC
'Cause when it's gone I feel my home
G+G
Is spaced away
D MajorD E minorEm
And I can't see where I've come from
C majorC G+G
'Cause weeks from now there's still today.
D MajorD E minorEm
And I can't sweep it under the rug or find
C majorC G+G
A augmentedA different place to stay
D MajorD G+G
'Cause who I am is where I'm from.
G+G
I'll try just to move on
C majorC
From these empty holes and the
E minorEm D MajorD
Ones who chose to stay back when I was gone
E minorEm
And though these souls are seeking
C majorC G+G
Something I can't chase
D MajorD E minorEm
I often wish we all could go back to the
C majorC G+G
Hope we've since erased
D MajorD E minorEm
And wake up from our comatosal states
C majorC G+G
That we create to roam
D MajorD G+G
'Cause who I am is who I've known.
E minorEm C majorC G+G D MajorD
I'll just run away
E minorEm C majorC G+G D MajorD
I've got to find myself some better days
G+G
I'll buy the things I hate
C majorC
Just to replace my wasted motivation
E minorEm D MajorD
Spent to fill my plate
E minorEm C majorC G+G
But when I try to leave behind the things
D MajorD
That weigh me down
E minorEm
And keep me on these ropes
C majorC G+G
They stick around like masking tape
D MajorD E minorEm
I thought was in the garbage and tells me
C majorC G+G
You'll be happy, wait
D MajorD G+G
'Cause who I am is what I've owned.
G+G
I'll die just to get born
C majorC
It's hard to be brand new
When the things I do
E minorEm D MajorD
Are the things I did before
E minorEm C majorC
But I will bomb my home and burn myself
G+G
And kill the things
D MajorD E minorEm
I've carried on my back
C majorC
So long these days are over
G+G D MajorD
Black and charred, debris and ashes
E minorEm C majorC G+G
And I can feel new air fill up my lungs,
D MajorD G+G
