[Intro]
Am C F G6 (x2)
[Verse]
Am C
I can never process
G6
What I'm feeling in my bones
Am C
Like a sickness
G6
That I can't diagnose
[Pre-chorus]
F G6
Some days I think I'm afraid of my shadow
Am Em
I show up to fight at all the wrong battles
F G6
And I don't think my mind will be right 'til I
[Chorus]
Am C
Pour the salt into the wound
F
Let the rain wash over you
G6 Am C
If everything I said was true
F
Then why am I paralyzed?
Am C F G6
Am C F
[Verse]
Am C G6
Watch the grass blow in the wind for the hell of it
Am C G6
And sometimes I get so caught up that I forget (how could I forget?)
[Pre-chorus]
F G6
That all of our words only mean what's behind them
Am Em
You can't throw gasoline on a fire
F G6
And say you tried to put it out
[Chorus]
Am
Pour the salt into the wound
C F G6
Let the rain wash over you
Am C
If everything I said was true
G6
Then why am I
Am C
Hiding from the blinding lights?
F G6
I never had an alibi
Am C
If everything I said was true
G6
Then why am I, why am I still paralyzed?
Am C
[Bridge]
G6 Am
Why am I still paralyzed?
F
Step back as the ashes rise
C
Embers up toward the sky
G6
With all the things that I can't find
[Chorus]
Am C
Pour the salt into the wound
F
Let the rain wash over you
Am C
If everything I said was true
G6
Then why am I
Am C
Hiding from the blinding lights?
F G6
I never had an alibi
Am C
If everything I said was true
G6
Then why am I, why am I still paralyzed?
Am C F G6
Am C
Still paralyzed
F G
