Chords with lyrics

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

Verse 1:
BB            E MajorE
Everything went straight out the window
F#F#           E MajorE
Like when we’re smoking in the rental car
BB            E MajorE
Little embers and fires pinwheel into the night
F#F#           E MajorE
Still a hundred kilometres from where you are
BB            E MajorE
Fell asleep with the blinds open
F#F#           E MajorE
So I could wake up with the sun
BB            E MajorE
Would instil a sense of hope and
F#F#           E MajorE
I’d go out and be someone

Chorus:
E MajorE            F#F#
I’m my best when I’m forgiving
G# minorG#m           F#F#
Life is hard to keep on living
E MajorE            F#F#
I’m my best when I’m forgiving
G# minorG#m           F#F#
Life is hard to keep on
BB
To keep on

Verse 2:
BB            E MajorE
Everyone walked straight out the back door like
F#F#           E MajorE
The police showed up in the front yard
BB            E MajorE
Little flickers and fights dissolve into the night
F#F#           E MajorE
I’m still not myself for what you said in the car
BB            E MajorE
I’m not sure what I am saying
F#F#           E MajorE
Doubled over like I’m throwin' up or praying
BB            E MajorE
With my knees on the floor of the downstairs shower
F#F#           E MajorE
I taste salty tears, artificial flowers

Chorus 1:
E MajorE            F#F#
I’m my best when I’m forgiving
G# minorG#m           F#F#
Life is hard to keep on living
E MajorE            F#F#
I’m my best when I’m forgiving
G# minorG#m           F#F#
Life is hard to keep on
(Keep on)

BB    E MajorE    F#F#   E MajorE

Chorus 2:
BB        E MajorE
Don't waste your anger
F#F#       E MajorE
Don't waste your anger
BB        E MajorE
Don't waste, don’t waste your anger on me
BB        E MajorE
Don't waste your anger on me
F#F#       E MajorE
Don't waste your anger
BB        E MajorE
Don't waste, don’t waste your anger on me
F#F#       E MajorE
Don't waste your anger on me
BB        E MajorE
Don't waste your anger
F#F#       E MajorE
Don't waste, don’t waste your anger on me
BB        E MajorE
Don't waste your anger on me
F#F#       E MajorE
Don't waste your anger
BB        E MajorE
Don't waste, don’t waste your anger on me
F#F#       E MajorE
Don't waste your anger on me
On me

BB        F#F#
The ghost of our hand print
BB        F#F#   C#C#
Here on the painted mirror
BB        F#F#
I lick your fingers
