Verse:
G                    A
I bought a big house in the country
D                  G
I live there now, does nothing for me
G                  A
Bought a fast car, white and sporty
D                G
When I look back I was pretty poorly
G                        A
I've had my best friend right beside me
D             G
Big decisions didn't come lightly
G                  A
A few regrets that live inside me
D                    G
Wish I'd done things way more kindly


Chorus:
G                  A
Don't you say that this ain't real
D                 G
I feel it pulling at my heels
G                    A
Don't you claim that I can't feel
D                G
I'm not made of stainless steel

Verse:
G                   A
I spent a long year in the small van
D                   G
Didn't feel my life disappearing
G                A
Miss my family, I miss her friends
D                   G
I know I made those mistakes

G                 A
I'm sad I woke up too late for us
D                    G
I know it's hard now I know I'm fucked up

G                  A

I feel it pulling at my heels

Don't you claim that I can't feel

I'm not made of stainless steel
