Round The Bend

[Intro] Am [Verse 1] C G Am Backsliding, I've been out riding the wrong direction. C G Am Each time I come to my senses, I swore I learn my lesson. C G Am And Lord knows I try to stay right, but I'm inconsistent. C G Am Fighting these demons seems I can't escape their presence. [Verse 2] C G Am And it got comfortable in my mind, it became a prison. C G Am All at one time and next thing I knew I was locked in. C G Am And all I could see were the walls as they close from both ends. C G Am But it gave me chances to glance at my own intentions [Verse 3] C G Am And realized that my pain was part of my own invention. C G Am And realized that I'd been just wasting my life away since. C G Am As far back as I can remember in adolescence C G Am A child full of anger, confusion and contentiousness. [Verse 4] C G Am Well I got to vacate from this place I can’t live in this sin. C G Am How can I hold hands with the devil yet still have a friend? C G Am And Jesus our Lord up above all around and within C G Am Carried me out of the deepest and dirtiest Trench. [Instrumental] C G Am C G Am [Verse 5] C G Am Won't you leave me alone can't you see I could use a good friend? C G Am And I know better than trusting that s#!t eatin grin. C G Am A smile on the surface can't hide the things I see within. C G Am Your backbiting ways never change so I'm leaving again. [Verse 6] C G Am The Sands keep on falling I feel myself falling with them. C G Am And I got my whole life but it feels like my time wearing thin C G Am And I give it my all anymore I feel like giving in C G Am But I know there's a better life waiting on me around the Bend. [Outro] C G Am But I know there's a better life waiting all me around the bend. C G Am But I know there's a better life waiting all me around the bend.
