I'm sorry I'm not the one
A
I'm not your savior
B E A E
Not strong enough to lean on.
A B C#m E
And yes I'm shamed of turning my back and run.
A B
But I'm not your fatheror long lost son,
E A E
I'm not the one
A B
and I'm not a good lover,
E
I'm just a fool.
A
Or when you're drowning,
B E
I'm not the lifline to pull at sea.
A B C#m
Hell I'm not free enough myself to set you free.
A
I'm not your savior.
B E
I'm not free.
E
You had the time to flee
C#m A
To places where I'll never be
A F#m E B E B
But somehow you believed in me.
E A F#m
Standing here helpless at the end of my arms,
A B E
Stretched out and look me in the eyes
A F#m B A
Oh brother, when you shoot me down,
F#
I ate the cake, I burned the flag
A
I burned it all but what the heck
F#7 F#
I'm only temporary, just like you.
F# E A C#m A E
Just like you, just like you.
E A
Wipe that smile off of your face,
B E
Cause I can't change your dreams or get the dreams you chase
E A B A
And I can't bear your wild golden cross.
C#m E A
Cause after all you're just a shade on the wall, like all of us.
C#m B E B
Another shade on the wall, like all of us.
E A F#m
Standing here helpless at the end of my arms,
A B E
Stretched out and look me in the eyes
A B A
brother, when you shoot me down,
F#
I ate the cake, I burned the flag
A
I burned it all but what the heck
F#7 F#
I'm only temporary, just like you.
F# A E
Just like you, just like you.
