Intro
G#m
I thought
F#
it would
E
make me
F#
happy
G#m
But I
F#
feel just
E
the same
F#
as I always did
G#m
How'd I
F#
end up
E
so deep
F#
in the rat race
G#m
My life
F#
got fucked up
E
somewhere
F#
along the way
[Verso 1]
(Pick it up here)
G#m
Am I not allowed to be angry
F#m
at the world that made me
E
I don't want a wall up between countries
F#m
Just between myself an my feelings
G#m
I built that house when I was ten years old
F#m
brick by brick and bone by bone
E
No windows 'cause I wanna be alone
F#m
Disposed of the key once I bolted the door
G#m
And it's just the same
F#
as what you'd do
E
if what happened to me
F#
had happened to you
[Verso 2]
G#m F#
What would it be like if I left my hideout?
E
I hate to admit that I'm afraid to find out
F#
One time I could see but it seems like I am blind now
G#m
Would you like me better if I turned my insides out?
F#
Wanna see me naked? Just ask!
E
I got nothin left to burn, just ash
F#
Is it still worth a shot? Maybe not, maybe not
[Verso 3]
G#m F#
It's all red, it's just the same:
E
A bleeding heart will never change
except to grow calloused
F#
in an honest attempt to save itself
G#m
I guess I'm not the open book
F#
that I claimed to be
E
In fact I'm banned, because
F#
I contain dangerous ideology
G#m
that you should never read
F#
Don't hurt yourself with my misdeeds
E F#
I'll stay safe behind
G#m
lock and lost key
(^ ideally, hold onto 'key' while someone else starts the bridge)
[Ponte]
G#m G#m F#
If the system was a man then I would put him down
F# F# E
But the system's made of men so I will put them down
E E F#
If I was a man then I would put myself down
F# F# G#m
They tell me I'm a man so I'll put myself down
[Verso 4]
G#m
Should I always be zen, take it easy,
F# E
relax, chill out, stay cool, friend?
F#
Beat my head against the wall again and again
G#m
I think it's starting to make a dent
F#
but on which side I can't tell yet
E
I'm not enlightened enough
F#
to call my burden a gift
G#m
and be grateful for it
F#
but what would I do
E
without my favorite excuse?
F#
without my favorite excuse?
(Repeat intro as the outro but quicker?) (Strum without pausing)
