G x4
They say you've got to lose a couple fights to win
CIt's hard to Dtell from where I'm Gsitting
They say that this is where the fun begins
CI guess it's Dtime that I was Gquitting
EmA slight Dfigure of speech
GI cut my cChest wide open
EmThey come and Dwatch us bleed
GIs it arCt like I was hoping Dnow? G
They said "I hope that you will never change"
CI went and cDut my hairG
They say "Don't take your business to the big time"
CI bought us Dtickets thereG
EmA slight fDigure of speech
GI cut my cChest wide open
EmThey come and Dwatch us bleed
GIs it Cart like I was hoping Dnow?

G - (Riff 1)
What did you expect
And what did you forget
That to live you let go of me with each step
It becomes a progression I won't let regret manifest
To aggression
Are you to assess what I've been? What I am? Or become?
Did you stop to accept how pathetically dumb
It can be to
Attack those around 'cause you're
G - (Riff 2)
True to color, a town, a time, or a place?
It's not you, it's not mine
And besides it is gone
And you never will find it again
But I don't want to fight
I just ask let me be
I won't give the chance to be my enemy
So go home
Think it through
A jet plane and a big idea
CI jump oDver the seaG
What ifs hot on my trail
CBut that Dcan't catch me, Gno
EmA slight Dfigure of speech
GI cut my Cchest wide open
EmThey come and Cwatch us bleed
GIs it Cart like I was hoping Dnow?
