[Verse 1]
Gm Dm C
Joseph was talking, grooming a rumor
Gm Dm C
He said, "Somebody drowned the other day"
Gm Dm C Gm
That somebody was me, but I never drowned
Dm C
I just simply slipped away
[synths]
Gm Dm C
Gm Dm C
(I just simply slipped away)
Gm A# F
So if you need me, I’m sorry
Gm A# F
'Cause I’m not around anymore
Gm D# F
I’ll never tell you what I’m thinking
Gm A# C
You don’t deserve to kno-w
[Chorus]
Dm A#
You came through stumbling hard, I knew
F Gm Gm A# C
Mumbling words untrue, only to undo
Dm A#
All the good I had achieved, you would
F G A# C
Stampede all over it, because you could
[Verse 2]
Gm Dm C
Joseph had captured a bird without wings
Gm Dm C
Writing in gold, making shapes in the fire
Gm Dm C
His anger met silence, a death in the woods
Gm Dm C
My freedom was mine again, mine again, all mine
[Pre-Chorus]
Gm A# F
You won’t find me crying
Gm A# F
So don’t you feel sorry for me
Gm D# F
All that I have is in my head
Gm A# C
And all that you took you can ha-ve
[Chorus]
Dm A#
You came through stumbling hard, I knew
F Gm Gm A# C
Mumbling words untrue, only to undo
Dm A#
All the good I had achieved, you would
F G A# C
Stampede all over it, because you could
Dm A#
You came through stumbling hard, I knew
F Gm Gm A# C
Mumbling words untrue, only to undo
Dm A#
All the good I had achieved, you would
F G A# C
Stampede all over it, because you could
[Bridge]
(synths, same pattern as chorus)
Dm A#
F Gm Gm A# C
Dm A#
F G A# C
[Outro]
Dm A# Gm
You don't heal me like you used to
Dm A# F
You don't heal me no more
Dm A# Gm
I don't need you like I used to
Dm A# F
You can't cure me like before
