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