_ _ _ _ _ Are you going to tell us what the song is about?
_ _ It's about _ when you waste your_ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Ebm] It's about spending all your time and [Bb] energy into something that's [Ab] _ [Cm] not worth either of [Ab] those things.

_ _ [Cm] _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ [Eb] _
_ _ _ _ I'm a foolish [Bb] gold thorn _ _ _ _ with [G] my troubles all [Ab] in _ _ _ _
_ _ [Cm] It's eighty-six dollars [Ab] a front for [Eb] the key, _ _ _ _ _ [Cm] tack on the run
[Ab] _ [Eb] Company _ _ _ _ _ _ [Cm] holds on my down, [Ab] holds me [Eb] tight _
_ Yeah, [Bb] we fuck all night _
_ _ For a [G] moment I'm [Gm] not [Ab] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] going _ _ _ home
_ [Bb] Hard [Cm] to be _ _ out [Ab] in the gentle _ [Eb] country breeze with my [Bb] family
_ _ _ _ _ The [Eb] _ cold _ _ [Bb] _ casket [Cm] I like
_ _ They're [Ab]
knucklebacks in [Eb] polished wood and I've grown [Bb] so tired
_ _ I've grown [Ebm] so [Ab] tired _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ All [C] the rounders shine their [Ab] saw [Eb]-tooth grin _ _ _
_ _ With [Cm] every page [Eb] I burn for them _ _ _ _ _
Inside [C] _ myself, [Ab] weight [Eb] of grief
_ _ _ _ Bloodstained [Bb]
sleeves
_ _ _ _ In the [G]
ashes of [Bb] my [Ab] knee _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
As I [Cm] stand in [Ab] a [Eb] makeshift ring
_ _ _ _ _ [Cm] Of all these lies [Ab] and broken [Eb] things
And _ _ _ I [Cm] [C] shout and howl [Ab] and cry and [Eb] I sing _ _ _
Count the blessings [Bb] down _ _ _
_ Across [G] the axes of [Bb]
[Ab] my doubts _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ Oh, [Eb] _
_ _ glory, [Bb] lay your hands [C] on [Cm] me
_ _ _ How it [Ab]
used to break [Eb] me down, but I'm finding [Bb]
peace
_ _ _ _ Lord [Eb] knows _ _ I [Bb] can't look back [C]
now
_ [Cm] _ _ So [Ab] I try and [Eb] swallow pride, but it's all [Bb] for naught
_ _ _ So I [Ab] hold out _ _ _ _ _ _
