🎸 Intro:

Em Am



🎸 Verse 1:
Am
I took the midnight path
C                G
In the aftermath
C/E                    Am
Tearing out the sutures
Am
Is a new way back
C                G
To a broken past
C/E                  F
Just our broken future?

🎸 Pre-Chorus:
                        Am
I heard you tore it all down
    G                      F
Destroyed the world we found



🎸 Chorus:
         C
Are we a lost cause?
            G/B       E
Are we just lost 'cause
         Am     G/B                 F
We won't be the future we refuse to see?
                C
And if I'm your lost cause
                G/B      E
It will be your lost cause
          Am          G/B            F
You won't see me as I am, not the enemy
                         Em Am Em Am
I'll be your lost cause


🎸 Verse 2:
Am
Do you remember us
C                  G
On a late night bus
C/E                    Am
Taking everything for granted?
Am                                 C
You're so scary with the lights on
                                   G
That my love songs are fight songs
                   C/E    F
But my punches never landed


🎸 Pre-Chorus:
                        Am
I heard you tore it all down
    G                  F
Destroyed the world we found
             F
The world we found


🎸 Chorus:
        C
Are we a lost cause?
            G/B       E
Are we just lost 'cause
         Am     G/B                 F
We won't be the future we refuse to see?
                C
And if I'm your lost cause
                G/B      E
It will be your lost cause
          Am          G/B            F
You won't see me as I am, not the enemy

I'll be your lost cause
