I'm so [D] tough, but I'm tough as I am [A] now.
[B] [A] You were so close, [D] enough kindness.

We stole from the [E] dream that made us.
[A] We stole anything [E] that we could [F#] be.
And it wasn't until [G#m] we woke this [A] world, anything, [B] that we'll be as thick as it [A] is.
[C#m] Like a [A] broken stranger, [C#m] with the [E] lips in my hand.

But it wasn't [G#] enough.
And now we've done [A] a small part of [B] everything.
