[Verse 1]
G B Em
I don't need no one to tell me what I've done
Em7 C
Out my pillow billows fires I've begun
G B Em
Spendin' most my nights in a barroom fight
Em7 C
Thoughts that cut across my mind like a rusted knife I'm
G B Em Em7 C
Feelin' cursed my stomach hurts, why do I live this kind of life
G B Em
Guess I'll lie on back, watch the fan for a while
Em7 D
A while, while, while, while

[Verse 2]
G B Em
I won't kill my shame, I won't stay the same
Em7 C
I won't forget her, let her out my brain
G B Em
Things that weigh me down finally go up in flames
Em7 C
I can't abide the lies to numb the pain
G B Em Em7 C
and in a flash they burn to ash, slain, make it all go away
G B Em
Soon the smoke will clear, on to turn the page
Em7 D
The page
[Chorus]
G B C
Write it in stone, write it in sand, for you and yours a better man
C D
So I can finally get some sleep for once and
G B C
When all of this is in the past, I hope that we can sit and laugh
C D
'cus I've been young and dumb for all these months and
G B C
When I see it in your eyes, I can't help but cry
C D
I have to use these broken words to say, I
C D G
Aint always been this way, but its who I am today
B Em Em7 C G B Em Em7 C G
[Verse 3]
B Em
Had to crawl on back, friends would say I can't
Em7 C
So I head west to nest with cactus plants
G B Em
I thought I might die, desert in July
Em7 C
I brought the rain with chants and dance, I
G B Em Em7 C
Loved you most, you really chose to, spare me from my past
G B Em
Only got one chance, gotta make this last
Em D
Gon' make this last
[Chorus]
G B C
Write it in stone, write it in sand, for you and yours a better man
C D
So I can finally get some sleep for once and
G B C
When all of this is in the past, I hope that we can sit and laugh

'cus I've been young and dumb for all these months and
G B C
When I see it in your eyes, I can't help but cry
