Intro e:-0----------¦ let ring B:-1----------¦ let ring G:-2----------¦ let ring D:-2----------¦ let ring A:-0--3--2--0-¦ E:------------¦ Verse I've waited a long time for this life Just to ruin it, so please don't ruin this for me Yes to understand this lie Hell I crossed those t's I scratched out all these eyes, myself last night Am (intro riff x2) What I promise not to find So this is what I'm looking like these days I'm all grown up, so full of hate But I don't wanna let go of my rage Cause it's the salt, that brings the taste So where am I to decide that I'm not right? Cause I might break and I might bend Your heart strings out of tune again And I might try to apologize On a good day On my best day If you stick around Verse Did I stay inside to sterilize this knife? Am I being to careful? Does this seem right? Did I open up the shades to expose the sunny rays? To show what burned there inside Take a close look, Hold me right up in to the light Cause I might break and I might bend Your heart strings out of tune again And I might try to apologize On a good day On my best day If you stick around I've waited for so long I've waited for so long Spread me out, rake me in This scorched and rocky field Will camouflage my skin And I might break and I might bend Your heart strings out of tune again And I might try to apologize On a good day On my best day If you stick around On my best day If you stick around
