[Verse 1]
Cmaj7 Gmaj7
Every tear that I cry
Em7
Is a drop of wine
Cmaj7
That sets me free
Cmaj7
Oh this poison
Gmaj7
Oh this poison, poison, poison in my veins
Em7
And the anguish on my face
Cmaj7
Oh it’s too late
I’m on my way to you
[Chorus]
Em7
Life has got it’s hands around my throat now
Everybody thinks it’s self imposed, wow
Cmaj7
As if I had all control
Like I’m the reason I’m this low
Em7
Life has got it’s hands around my throat now
Everybody thinks it’s self imposed, wow
Cmaj7
As if I had all control
Like I’m the reason I’m this low
[Verse 3]
Em7
Yeah, look, the shadows around me, they haunt me death
If a fork in the road, know I always choose left
If we pick up the pieces and pick up the slack
This infinity spiral might not reconnect
Cmaj7
And I pray to god it don’t
Not like I believe in this buzz anymore than you
You seen the “breaking news”?
It got me so confused
Cmaj7
Couldn’t tell ya what’s fake or true
Em7
We living in a broken world, we’re suffering
There’s people OD-ing on the streets
Got a whole cabinet of politicians, laundering money to the nth degree
Cmaj7
While theres climate change, war, poverty and this air is hard to breathe
After all the above, you still trynna make love
And believe that there’s hope for peace? peace?
[Chorus]
Em7
Life has got it’s hands around my throat now
Everybody thinks it’s self imposed, wow
Cmaj7
As if I had all control
Like I’m the reason I’m this low
Em7
Life has got it’s hands around my throat now
Everybody thinks it’s self imposed, wow
Cmaj7
As if I had all control
Like I’m the reason I’m this low
