Standard Tuning
[Am] [G] [C] [F]
[Am] [G] [C] [F]
[F] The fountain was off.[G]
This is the fi[C]rst time I?ve been back to the city in months.[F]
I?m trying to hol[G]d it together but [C]irony?s found cracks in the foundation.
[F] And you know,[G]
I [C]try so hard to be some great white hope
But [F]I can?t shake the [G]feeling that to[Am]night I?m gonna [F]end up s[F]haking in [G]bed
al[C]one.
[Am] I?m not a self-help boo[G]k; I?m just a fucked up kid. [C]
I had to take my o[F]wn advice and I di[Am]d.
Now I?m wai[G]ting for it to si[C]nk in[F].
[Am] Expect me st[G]anding tall, back again[C]st the wall,
'Cause wha[F]t I learned was
[Am] It?s not about f[G]orcing happiness;
[C]It?s about not letting the sadness win. [F]
F...
[F] [G] [C]
I don?t have [F]roses in the closet
But I?ve got [C]pictures in a drawer
It?s [F]everything left in me
Not to s[C]tare at them anymore.
I [F]walked upstairs and shaved my b[C]eard.
I felt like [F]I was holding sadness here
[C](I was holding sadness here)
[F] [C] [F] [C]
[Am] I?m not a self-help boo[G]k; I?m just a fucked up kid. [C]
I had to take my o[F]wn advice and I di[Am]d.
Now I?m w[G]aiting for it to s[C]ink i[F]n.
[Am] Expect me sta[G]nding tall, back again[C]st the wall,
'Cause [F]what I learned was
[Am] It?s not about [G]forcing happiness;
[C]It?s about not letting the sadness win[F].
I don?t have [F]roses in the [G]closet
But I?ve got [C]pictures in a drawer
It?s [F]everything left i[G]n me
Not to st[C]are at them anymore.
[Am] I?m not a self-help boo[G]k; I?m just a fucked up kid. [C]
I had to take my ow[F]n advice and I did[Am].
I?m not a self-help book[G]; I?m just a fucked up kid. [C]
I had to take my own advice and I did[F].
