[Verse 1]
Bm Em
Was that somebody's scream, It wasn't me for sure
A# Gm
I lift my head up from uneasy pillows, Put my feet on the floor
Dm Gm
I Cut my wrist on a bad thought and head for the door
[Verse 2]
Bm Em
Outside on the pavement, The dark makes no noise
A# Gm
I can feel the sweat on my lips leaking into my mouth
Dm Gm Bm
I'm heading out for the steep hills, They're leaving me no choice
[Chorus]
Em G D Am C G D Am
And see...as our lives are in the making
Em G D Am C G D
We believe through the lies and the hating
Am Em G Am
That love goes free
[Verse 3]
Bm Em
For want of an option I run the wind 'round
A# Gm
I dream pictures of houses burning never knowing nothing else to do
F C Gm
With death comes the morning unannounced and new
[Verse 4]
Bm Em
Was it too much to ask for to pull a little weight
A# Gm
They forgive everything but greatness, These are scoundrel days
Dm Gm Bm
And I'm close to calling out their names as pride hits my face
[Chorus]
Em G D Am C G D Am
And see...as our lives are in the making
Em G D Am C G D
We believe through the lies and the hating
Am Gm F Em Eb Gm F Em Eb
That love goes free through scoundrel days
[Instrumental]
Gm F Em Eb (2x)
[Verse 5]
Bm Em
I reach the edge of town, I've got blood in my hair
A# Gm
Their hands touch my body from everywhere
Dm Gm Bm
But I know that I've made it as I run into the air
[Chorus]
Em G D Am C G D Am
And see...as our lives are in the making
Em G D Am C G D
We believe through the lies and the hating
Am Em G D Am C G D Am G
That love goes free Through scoundrel days
