[Bb] Hi, I'm Nathan, this is Chad, and we are in Boy Sets Fire, [G] and we are going to sing a Boy Sets Fire song and play it on the guitar.
Called My Life in the Knife Trade.
[Em] How many times have I [G] noticed that our [C] eyes hardly [G] ever [Em] meet from your judgment seat?
I [G] can feel the [C] anger for [G] my very [Em] being, fill me in [G] on when you became such [C] a big [G] part of [Em] my life
that I should bother [G] with all your lies designed to bring me [E] down.
Wrong again, don't depend on any reaction again.
[G] I remember the [C] icy walls that shattered [G] from nowhere,
[E] and [G] I can see every [C] lie you've ever told yourself.
[E] You bleed [G] me dry, and I don't [C] ask why, but I'm left with the dust.
[G]
[E] Judas kiss I [G] dismiss, thank you all for this.
[C] I am untouched, I am [G] unweighed [A] again.
[E] I'm not through [B] with the [C] screaming, [G] and I [A] contend [E] that you've got [B] nothing [C] better to do [G] than
trade my life [C] for a [G] barrel of gold, [Em]
find [G] someone else [C] before I get [G] too old.
[Em] If I [G] live my life [C] for [G] aesthetic gain, [Em]
[G] will you repay me [C] with all [G] your shame?
[E] [G] I can see every [C] light inside your brain.
[E] Go on [G] every time that I walk [C] by for knives and whispers.
[E] Your comfort [G]
in my suffering is no [C] longer disturbing.
[G] [E] I'm lost [G] behind your petty [C] stopwatch.
Life's real time, life's [G] real.
[A] I'm unweighed again.
[E] I'm not through [D] with [C] the screaming, [G] and I [A]
contend [E] that you've got [D] nothing [C]
better to do than
[Em] [G] trade my life for [C] a [G] barrel of gold, [Em] find [G] someone else [C] before [G] I get too old.
[E] If I [G] live my life [C] for [G] aesthetic gain, will you repay me with [C] all [G] your shame?
Don't [D] get up.
[Bm]
I was only [Em] leaving [C] the room.
And when [G] the door of [D] your judgment swings back around [Bm] again, maybe I'll stop to watch [C] your act.
I'll go on [G] while you have
[D] seen quite [Bm] enough of your [C] manager's games.
And I'm [G]
ashamed of every [Dm]
moment that [Bm] I ever give them the time of [C] day.
All [G] the worst [D] enemies, I somehow [Bm] will waste friends that used [C] to be.
[Dm] [G] Woo!
[A] That's it.
Got it.
