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