Intro
G
[Verso 1]
G
I'm the lone survivor of men I've never known
C G
Say that I'm inspired as I inherit everything I own
G
Tell me that I'm worth it and only take in mind
C G
And if I don't deserve it well tell me why I take most of the time
D C G
I'm striding out and still falling behind
G
[Refrão]
G
If I could take a moment
C
Outside of my head
Am
Then I would tell you darling
D
The things I should have said
G
But I'm calcifying
C
I feel it in my bones
Am
And it's getting harder
D
The more that I'm alone
G
Mmm mmmm
[Verso 2]
G
Make an empty promise and do it all again
C G
And if I'm being honest it's bothering me less than I pretend
G
Maybe I'm complacent, maybe I'm content
C G
Either way I'm waiting, waiting on what hasn't happened yet
D C G
You asked to talk I sang a song instead
G
[Refrão]
G
If I could take a moment
C
Outside of my head
Am
Then I would tell you darling
D
The things I should have said
G
But I'm calcifying
C
I feel it in my bones
Am
And it's getting harder
D
The more that I'm alone
G
