Chords for Nightcore ↬ Alone [lyrics]

[N] _ _ _ _ [Ebm] _ _ _ _
Eight years old and he's kicking [B] and screaming
I'll only go to school if you give me [Gb] a reason
Your kids are really mean and I already [Bb] know all the things they're [Eb] teaching
Hopped in the car, mama let him pay [B] her key
Missed the first hour just to get a cup [Gb] of coffee
She's the only one who saw who he [Bb] was, no one else could [Ebm]
read him
Showing up late but he makes it to [B] class
I stare out the window and the clock in the [Gb] back
Each day's a new way to a sky so [Bb] bright
Everything's simple, it's driving him [Ebm] mental
Wishing every day that something would [B] change
He said his dad makes him play ball by the [Gb] bay
And every time he cries, father rolls [Ab] his eyes
Saying son, it's all your fault, how come you never [Abm] try?
He does all that he [Bbm] should, why is he misunderstood?
[Ebm] This is Floyd, not a brokey [B] boy
With his head bumped in just to block out the [Gb] noise
Of everyone around him telling him the [Bb] way to go
So he walks the [Ebm] world alone
Wondering if it gets [B] better
If he's always gonna feel empty [Gb] forever
So he gets lost, trying to find another [Bb] way back home
As he walks the [Ebm] world alone
_ _ [Eb] Fifteen years and he's drowning in [B] sorrow
Smoking weed, drinking cheap liquor out the [Gb] bottle
With a bunch of fake friends
Cause he tried to fit [Bb] in but it wasn't working
[Ebm] Ran away from law about a dozen [B] times
Nothing too bad, just a few suburban crimes
Till he [Gb] says to himself, what are you doing?
You [Bb] don't deserve [Ebm] this
Don't you know nobody will ever [B] understand
The person that you are, learn to hold your own [Gb] hand
Just get your shit together and lose the weight
You'll never be what you want, no, not with that [Ebm] fate
He's got it right and all of his thoughts on [B] paper
Realize music made life so much [Gb] greater
A hundred pounds down, he looks so different [Ab] now
As he plans his [Ebm] escape from a crooked [Abm] homebound
He does all that he should, why is he misunderstood?
_ [Ebm] This is a story about a broken [B] boy
With his head blown thin just to block out the [Gb] noise
Of everyone around him telling him the [Bb] way to go
So he walks the [Ebm] world alone
Wondering if it gets [B] better
If he's always gonna feel empty [Gb] forever
So he gets lost, trying to find another [Bb] way back home
As he walks the [Ebm] world alone _
[B] _ _ Oh, [Gb] hello, hello _ _
[Bb] _ _ _ _ [Ebm] 21 years and he's on the right [B] path
But sometimes he wonders if he grew up too [Gb] fast
And missed out on the little things
[Db] All of the little things
[Ebm] Who is he kidding?
Surely not [B] himself
But sometimes he wonders if there's somebody else
Who [Gb] takes the same road
But [Db] he'll never know
Cause he [Ebm] walks the world alone
This is a story about a broken boy
[B] With his head blown thin just to block out the [Gb] noise
Of everyone around him telling him the way to [Bbm] go
So he walks the world [Ebm] alone
Wondering if it gets [B] better
If he's always gonna feel empty [Gb] forever
So he gets lost, trying to find another way back [Bbm] home
As he [Bb] walks the world [Ebm] alone
Oh, hello, [B] hello
21 [Gb] years and he's on the right path
But [Bb] sometimes he wonders [Ebm] if _ [B] there's somebody else
Oh, hello, [Gb] _ _
hello
He walks the world alone _ _
