Intro: Dm Bb Am
Verse: 1
Dm
Time lost, miles away
In a world of bullets
Bb F
In a bed, an empty space
Am
A picture frame, a portrait
Dm
The night falls, I'm awake
I'm left to rust in silence
Bb F
Withdraw my mistakes
C
I'm left to trust in violence
Pre-Chorus:
Dm E F A
Bb
Well can you teach me how to fly
In a world so shallow?
Dm E F A
Bb C
Will you show me I'm alive
Am
Or find a way to get home
Dm
Well I'm alive
But paralyzed
Bb
By the sight of bloodshed fights
Am
Shoot 'em right between the eyes
C
Can I let it go
When I'm leaving?
Dm
I'm weak inside
But built to fight
Bb
Living life through compromise
C
Terrified to prove me right
Am
Can I let this go
When I'm leaving?
Verse: 2
Dm
Headstones borrow names
Inscribed by anxious patients
Bb F
A fate calls, a blurry fate
Am
Lies in the hands we're chased with
Dm
I'm bearing all
Bombs away
Bb
Curing fear with makeshift plans
F
Conquer the fall, we'll do it
C
Comfort the fall with bullshit
Pre-Chorus
Dm E F A
Bb
Can you teach me how to fly
In a world so shallow?
Dm E F A
Bb C
Will you show me I'm alive
Am
Or find a way to get home
Dm
Well I'm alive
But paralyzed
Bb
By the sight of bloodshed fights
Am
Shoot 'em right between the eyes
C
Can I let it go
When I'm leaving?
Dm
I'm weak inside
But built to fight
Bb
Living life through compromise
C
Terrified to prove me right
Am
Can I let this go
When I'm leaving?
