[G]
They were feeling judiciously, [E] they were going to fail us all
But [G]
failing came more easily [E] than it did to us all
[A]
I don't [Bm] want it to be there, [A]
to see [Bm] them begin
It [A]
was [Bm] easy to see that they [A] were the last [Bm] plan to be again
[G]
I gave up drugging, [E]
despite my [Em] dream
[G]
Stopped reloading, [E] when I could not get [Em] in
[A]

[G] Couldn't believe I'd grown so ugly, [E] couldn't believe I'd been so cruel
[A]
I [Bm] should have sat back, [A]
thought [Bm] about the past
[A]

[G]
Some people are born to write, [E] some people are born to dance
[G] Thought I knew my place in the world, [E]
thought I knew my heart
