[Verse 1]
Fm Cm A#
Joseph was talking, grooming a rumor

I just simply slipped away

So if you need me, I’m sorry

You don’t deserve to kno-w
[Chorus]

You came through stumbling hard, I knew

Mumbling words untrue, only to undo

All the good I had achieved, you would

Stampede all over it, because you could
[Verse 2]

Writing in gold, making shapes in the fire

His anger met silence, a death in the woods

My freedom was mine again, mine again, all mine
[Pre-Chorus]
Fm G# D#
You won’t find me crying
Fm G# D#
So don’t you feel sorry for me

All that I have is in my head
Fm G# A#
And all that you took you can ha-ve
[Chorus]

You came through stumbling hard, I knew
D# Fm Fm G# A#
Mumbling words untrue, only to undo

Mumbling words untrue, only to undo

You don't heal me like you used to

Cm G# D#
You can't cure me like before
