🎸 Intro:

F  Dm  Am    F  Dm  Am


🎸 Verse 1:
F          Dm                     Am
Sleepless, staring up through the ceiling
Am
We come from the mud, so there's
F         Dm                     Am
Reason to bite the hand that was feeding
                              F
The hand of a god who wasn't enough
                 Dm
He wasn't enough to cover the blood
                Am
To hand out the healing
Am
Who severed his love but kept you in touch
Am
Who kept you believing
                     Dm
Who said you weren't trying?
                Am
I knew that you were

🎸 Chorus:
                  Fmaj7
But I watched you shape shift
Dm             Am
Change to your needs
            Fmaj7  Dm
Saw all the faces
                  Am
Used to hide your grief
Am
I watched you change


🎸 Verse 2:
F       Dm         Am
Felt my ego caving in, we're covered in mud
           F           Dm               Am
So there's no sense in hiding your suffering
                               F
By the hand of man who wasn't enough
                    Dm
He was never enough to give you the love
                 Am
To give you that feeling
Am
Whose venomous touch by the hand of a gun
                F
That kept you believing
                     Dm
Who said you weren't worth it?
                Am
I knew that you were


🎸 Chorus:
                  Fmaj7
But I watched you shape shift
Dm             Am
Change to your needs
Em          Fmaj7  Dm
Saw all the faces
                  Am  Em
Used to hide your grief
Am            Fmaj7              G
I watched you change, twist your faith
         Am                 Em
Lose yourself in precarious ways
         Fmaj7     G            Am  Em
All your shape shifting to run away


🎸 Bridge:
                              Am   C
And there was nothing I could do
                          F
There was nothing I could do right
                                    Em
Nothing I could do, nothing I could do
                           Am            G
So sick of calling out and never hearing back
Am                       C
Sometimes it's easier to run and not react
                              F
But there was nothing I could do
F
Tell me what you knew
                      Em
The world was just so cruel to you
Em
Well, it's hereditary
                Am
Sick of forcing smiles, never looking back
           C
A luxury I never really had and that's a fact
                        F
There's nothing I could do, yeah
F
Tell me what you knew
                      Em
The world was just so cruel to you
Em
Well, it's hereditary


🎸 Chorus:
              F
I watched you shape shift
Dm                 Am
And change to your needs
Em          F Dm
Saw all the faces
                  Am
Used to hide your grief
Em                Am
Now I watched you change
