Verse 1:
I got me a [G]shovel
And I'm digging a [Em7]ditch
And I'm going to [Cadd2]fight for this four square feet of land like a [G]mean old son of a [A7sus4]b**ch
I got me a [G]future
I'm not stuck on the [Em7]past
I got no new [Cadd2]trick yeah I'm, up on bricks but me, i'm a ma[G]chine and i was built to [A7sus4]last
Chorus:
I'm [C]trying to get better cos I [Cmaj9/B]haven't been my [G]best
She took a [C]plain black marker started[Cmaj9/B] writing on my [G]chest
She drew a [C]line across the middle of my [Cmaj9/B]broken heart and said said [G]come on now lets fix this [A7sus4]mess
We could get [C]better, [Bm] because we're not dead [G]yet
Verse 2:
They threw me a whirl[G]wind
And i spat back the [Em7]seas
I took a batte[Cadd2]ring but i've got thicker skin and the best people i [G]know are looking out for [A7sus4]me
So i'm taking the high[G]road,
My engines running high and [Em7]fine
May I always see the [Cadd2]road rising up to meet me and my enemies defe[G]ated in the mirror be[A7sus4]hind
Chorus:
I'm [C]trying to get better cos I [Cmaj9/B]haven't been my [G]best
She took a [C]plain black marker started[Cmaj9/B] writing on my [G]chest
She drew a [C]line across the middle of my [Cmaj9/B]broken heart and said said [G]come on now lets fix this [A7sus4]mess
We could get [C]better, [Bm] because we're not dead [G]yet
Middle 8:
(play single notes on the A string - use 5th chords as it builds)
[D5] [C#5] [C5] [A5]
|A|--5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0--|
It's just a [D5]knot in the small of your [C#5]back
you could work it [C5]out, with your fin[A5]gers
It's just a [D5]tune that got stuck in your [C#5]head
you could work it [C5]out, with your fin[A5]gers
It's just a [D5]numbness tangled up in your [C#5]songs
you could work it [C5]out, with your fin[A5]gers
It's just a [D5]simple braille missing from the [C#5]person you miss,
a rem[C5]inder you could always be a [A5]little bit better than [Cadd2]this
Chorus (alternate):
So [C]try and get better and don't [Cmaj9/B]ever accept [G]less
Take a [C]plain black marker and [Cmaj9/B]write this on your [G]chest
Draw a [C]line underneath all this [Cmaj9/B]unhappiness
[G]Come on now let's fix this [A7sus4]mess
We could get [C]better [Bm] because we're not dead [G]yet
We could get [C]better [Bm] because we're not dead [G]yet
