A G#m C#m (x2)
[Verse 1]
Said, "In truAth I don't really want to talk abG#mout it"
Christmas lighC#mts dangled sadly from the table in the operating room
ALast I heard you're an addict abG#mout it
Full of C#mrage and Corona
Trying to blow the birthday kid candles Aout
Trap doors and the retalG#miator lead C#mout
To the field where our extended family buried their Alies
If you're going, bring some faith and a fG#mlashlight
Follow C#msigns that read
"It's twenty miles before you finally see fire"
(Maybe you're paying too much for your life insurance policy)
[Verse 2]
Now there's somAething to say for the art of conG#mfusion
I got the cC#mourage to enquire where your body traveled all of the Atime
"I gotta climb out of this elevG#mator, hadn't C#mmoved me once yet
Do I expect that it should really start Anow?"
The waitress oversees you leviG#mtating
Couldn't C#mthink it to words and watched your body lift up into the Asky
Everyone there was just in awe abG#mout it
Seen a C#mmiracle and drank away the thought from our minds
[Pre-Chorus 1]
There was C#myou and mEe
And Anothing in-betC#mween
It's rC#might and wrongE
Goes Aon and on and EonF#m
[Chorus]
A This is the Ewave that you could never conquer
A Losing the sEmallest piece of truth we uBsed to kAnow
I wasn't prepC#mared to embark with the wolf of the mountain
A It wasn't a Eplace that we could call our own C#m
[Verse 3]
Now I dAon't want to seem like it's split at the sG#meams
See the pC#main on the wall? See the blood in the street?
There is nAothing you've got when you die that you keepG#m
You were alC#ml that you were, were you all you could be?
In the bliAnk of an eye there's a hole in your G#mbelly
Your bC#mody recoils ironically into the family planning aisle
AI overhear, "I don't know where I'm gG#moing
I'm gC#moing anyway
Don't let 'em tell you that I never found..."
[Pre-Chorus 2]
C#mYou and Eme and Anothing in-bC#metween
It's C#mright and wroEng, goes Aon and on and EonF#m
The C#mtruth for mEe is grAasping at the sC#meam
So tC#mruthfullEy, do you wAant to die for mEe?F#m
[Chorus]
A This is the Ewave that you could never conquer
A Losing the sEmallest piece of truth we uBsed to kAnow
I wasn't prepC#mared to embark with the wolf of the mountain
A It wasn't a Eplace that we could call our own C#m
