Intro
E* G D2 G2 Bm2 A G
D G
There were moments of dreams I was offered to save
D G
I live less like a workhorse, more like a slave
Bm
I thought that one quick moment that was noble or brave
G
Would be worth the most of my life.
D G
So I pointed my fingers, and shout a few quotes I knew
D G
As if something that's written should be taken as true
Bm
But every path I have taken and conclusion I drew
G
Would put truth back under the knife.
Em A7
And now the only piece of advice that continues to help:
Bm E* G
Is anyone that's making anything new only breaks something else.
E* G D2
When my time comes,
G2 Bm2 A G
Ohhhhh, oh oh oh.
E* G D2
When my times comes,
G2 Bm2 A G
Ohhhhh, oh oh oh.
D G
So I took what I wanted and put it out of my reach
D G
I wanted to pay for my successes with all my defeats,
Bm
And if heaven was all that was promised to me
G
Why don't I pray for death?
D G
And now it seems like the unraveling has started too soon,
D G
Now I'm sleeping in hallways and I'm drinking perfume
Bm
And I'm speaking to mirrors and I'm howling at moons
G
While the worst and the worst that it gets.
Em A7
Oh you can judge all the world on the sparkle that you think it lacks.
Bm E* G
Yes you can stare into the abyss, but it's staring right back.
E* G D2
When my time comes,
G2 Bm2 A G
Ohhhhh, oh oh oh.
