A# C F A# F
I'm sorry I'm not the one
A#
I'm not your savior
C F A# F
Not strong enough to lean on.
A# C Dm F
And yes I'm shamed of turning my back and run.
A# C
But I'm not your fatheror long lost son,
F A# F
I'm not the one
A# C
and I'm not a good lover,
F
I'm just a fool.
A#
Or when you're drowning,
C F
I'm not the lifline to pull at sea.
A# C Dm
Hell I'm not free enough myself to set you free.
A#
I'm not your savior.
C F
I'm not free.
F
You had the time to flee
Dm A#
To places where I'll never be
A# Gm F C F C
But somehow you believed in me.
F A# Gm
Standing here helpless at the end of my arms,
A# C F
Stretched out and look me in the eyes
A# Gm C A#
Oh brother, when you shoot me down,
G
I ate the cake, I burned the flag
A#
I burned it all but what the heck
G7 G
I'm only temporary, just like you.
G F A# Dm A# F
Just like you, just like you.
F A#
Wipe that smile off of your face,
C F
Cause I can't change your dreams or get the dreams you chase
F A# C A#
And I can't bear your wild golden cross.
Dm F A#
Cause after all you're just a shade on the wall, like all of us.
Dm C F C
Another shade on the wall, like all of us.
F A# Gm
Standing here helpless at the end of my arms,
A# C F
Stretched out and look me in the eyes
A# C A#
brother, when you shoot me down,
G
I ate the cake, I burned the flag
A#
I burned it all but what the heck
G7 G
I'm only temporary, just like you.
G A# F
Just like you, just like you.
