E
Now I have a nagging flaw I never saw it sneaking up
B
It wrapped it's dirty arms around me
Pockets full of blood
E
After I had seen the sight I hardly had a choice to fight
B
A nail snuck out behind the van and it hit me
Through my sweater and my shirt
E
And when I looked at Michael he heard "I need to be alone"
B
But when he turned his head I soon corrected "Need to be at home"
E
It took me all this time to get where I said I would never be
B
I hope it's not even out there
E C# F# F
I hope eventually you'll see what you've been turning me into

It's all for you

E
It feels like 37 years and I am nothing but a bank
B
If we could build our credit score "Incredible," they'll surely say
E
But I can credit only one to focus all the fame
B
It has the first and last even the middle of my very name
E
I am the greatest man that never lived and now I never sleep
I never lost a fight but never knew I started one the same
Eb
I never knew how capable I would become
 
B E
I'm tired of talking to a wall when I could talk to someone else
B E
It's got seven days without a word
B E
And you're with someone somewhere else

We spent the most of nights defending fights you fought in the past
B
But it was different now and I'm entirely too drunk to ask
(To me, to me)
E
You spend most every day enjoying the sun and hoping it lasts
(To me, to me)
B
I have a funny gut and feeling doubtful you'll get it back
(To me, to me)
