Intro: F#5 Em A D

 A                             C#m       D               A
I don't really think that I'm ready for another Chicago winter
           C#m             D
So you can stop making my bones feel cold
   A                        C#m         D
I swear that emptiness lives inside your chest
             A                      C#m        D                A
You're the reason you fell far away from what brought out your best
              D  A                                   D  A
Don't get me wrong, I wish a lot of things were the way they used to be

F#m Em A D

    A                                  D  A                    D  A
The streets that used to make me feel alive just make me feel alone
                                  F#m Em A D
The holes in the wall get bigger every year

Interlude: D D D

  A           E               B              D
It's hard to think that some people in this world look at me
 A             E       D
With the same eyes as yours I've been breaking all ten fingers for you
 A                E            B        D
And you wouldn't even lift one up for me
       A                      E           D                                  D E
Appreciation's something you lost in the dirt that's on your hands and knees

Interlude: A C#m, D (x 2)

               A                          F#m
But I'm never gonna be just a hole in the wall
                           E                             D
You can anchor down your feet and say fuck the past and everyone that dragged you here
 A                           F#m
I'm not putting myself on a pedestal
                             E                                  D
You need to stand up for yourself and who you claim you used to be


  A           E               B              D
It's hard to think that some people in this world look at me
 A             E       D
With the same eyes as yours I've been breaking all ten fingers for you
 A                E            B        D
And you wouldn't even lift one up for me
       A                      E           D                                  D E
Appreciation's something you lost in the dirt that's on your hands and knees


(Mute interlude: Anchor down your feet, say fuck the past and everyone that dragged you here
Just stand up for yourself and who you claim you used to be!)

Bridge: A, D

  A           E               B              D
It's hard to think that some people in this world look at me
 A             E       D
With the same eyes as yours I've been breaking all ten fingers for you
 A                E            B        D
And you wouldn't even lift one up for me
       A                      E           D                                  D E
Appreciation's something you lost in the dirt that's on your hands and knees
