Intro
Am F Dm E
[Verso 1]
Am F Dm
I’ve come too far to hit the brakes
E
Right from the start, we ghost ride my fate
Am F Dm
You took the chance, you knew the stakes
E
Life in your hands too hard to shake
Am F Dm
No room for curves, a road so straight
E
How could I learn there’s no escape
Am F Dm
No room for squares, this house of pain
E
There’s too much dirt to clean the slate
Yeah
Am F Dm E
[Verso 2]
Am F
I’ve been looking for a keeper that could set me free
Dm
And your light is like a beacon I will never see
Killed the flame, I’m divin’ deeper in the darkness
E
Burned every bridge now there’s nothing left to spark it
[Verso 3]
Am F
I’ve been looking for a keeper that could set me free
Dm
And your light is like a beacon I will never see
Killed the flame, I’m divin’ deeper in the darkness
E
Burned every bridge now there’s nothing left to spark it
Am F
You’ve been searching for somebody that you used to know
Dm
Behind the curtain was a part of me I used for show
I’ve been workin’ on a one-man act
E
Now every single night, an opportunity to act out
Am F
We said forever, but we never said the place or time
Dm
I got lost so early on it wasn’t worth the try
E
Not a soul behind my eyes, you’d like to see the other side of me
But you could hardly bare—
[Refrão]
F Dm
And by the way you were holding it down it’s hard to leave
Am Em
And by the way of my head in the clouds, it’s hard to see
F Dm Am Em
And by the wayside, we fell by the wayside into the divide, the divide
F Dm
And by the way you were holding it down, it’s hard to leave
Am Em
And by the way of my head in the clouds, it’s hard to see
F Dm Am Em
And by the wayside, we fell by the wayside into the divide, the divide
[Ponte]
F Dm
I took the time to try it
Am Em
Lean in and learn from my mistakes
F Dm Am Em
But when i look back they’re all sane
F Dm
For a problem child
Am Em
Down on all their luck
F Dm
All the while
Am Em F
We needed more than love and the setting sun

Too far
