I'm sorry I'm not the one

I'm not your savior
F# B E B
Not strong enough to lean on.
E F# G#m B
And yes I'm shamed of turning my back and run.
E F#
But I'm not your fatheror long lost son,
B E B
I'm not the one
E F#
and I'm not a good lover,

I'm just a fool.

Or when you're drowning,

You had the time to flee
G#m E
To places where I'll never be
E C#m B F# B F#
But somehow you believed in me.
B E C#m
Standing here helpless at the end of my arms,
E F# B
Stretched out and look me in the eyes
E C#m F# E
Oh brother, when you shoot me down,
C#
I ate the cake, I burned the flag
E
I burned it all but what the heck
C#7 C#
I'm only temporary, just like you.
C# B E G#m E B
Just like you, just like you.
B E
Wipe that smile off of your face,
F# B
Cause I can't change your dreams or get the dreams you chase
B E F# E
And I can't bear your wild golden cross.
G#m B E
Cause after all you're just a shade on the wall, like all of us.
G#m F# B F#
Another shade on the wall, like all of us.
B E C#m
Standing here helpless at the end of my arms,

C#
I ate the cake, I burned the flag
E
I burned it all but what the heck
C#7 C#
I'm only temporary, just like you.

Just like you, just like you.
