(Intro) F# C# G# F# C# G#
(Verse)
F#
How did I wind up
C# G#
in this predicament,
F#
feel like all my bones and ligaments,
C# G#
are broken and ripped to shreds,
F# C#
and all the shit inside my head has me,
G# F#
cold and alone, it’s not the first time I’ve felt far,
C# G#
I’ve felt far from home,
F#
and these shoes,
C#
maybe they’ll finally
G# F#
take me somewhere new,
C# G#
miles away from anything that’s
F# C# G#
F#
That's been bringing me down
C# G#
That's been bringing me down
(Chorus)
F#
I’ve seen these ups and downs,
C# F#
and how I’ve really grown to hate this town,
C# F#
flat on my back cause there’s a kink in my neck,
C# G#
from the way that I slept,
F#
it’s been a long one,
C# G#
these ups and downs
F#
(Verse)
F# C#
This road will leave you stranded if you let it,
G# F#
you’ll get lost inside the genetics of poetics,
C#
wondering when and where,
G# F#
exactly how you said it,
C#
you’ll become so cold and
G# F#
numb and infected,
C#
this road wasn’t
G# F# C#
intended for a passerby,
G#
so if you intend on veering,
F# C# G#
let it pass you by
(Chorus)
F#
I’ve seen these ups and downs,
C# F#
and how I’ve really grown to hate this town,
C# F#
flat on my back cause there’s a kink in my neck,
C# G#
from the way that I slept,
F#
it’s been a long one,
C# G#
these ups and downs
(BUILD-UP)
F# C# G# F# C# G#
(BRIDGE)
F# C# G#
I’ve given everything, tossed and turned every dream,
F# C# G#
dragged myself through misery, maybe this will save them,
F# C# G#
and I desperately hope, these words keep you afloat,
F#
because I’m drifting,
C# G# F#
and this life is all I know
C# G# F# C# G#
F#
And this life is all I know
C# G# F# C# G#
(Chorus)
F#
I’ve seen these ups and downs,
C# F#
and how I’ve really grown to hate this town,
C# F#
flat on my back cause there’s a kink in my neck,
C# G#
from the way that I slept,
F#
it’s been a long one,
C# G#
these ups and downs
