[Bm] I've hardly been [C#m] outside [D] my room in days.
Cause I [Bm] don't feel that I [A] deserve [D] the [G] sunshine's [D] rays.
The [Bm] darkness held until [C#m] the whiskey [A] wore [D] away.

When [Bm] you're young you have [C#m] this [A] image of [D] your life.

And you [Bm] make boundaries [A] you'd never dream [D] to cross.
And if [Bm] you happen to, you [A] wake completely [D] lost.
Then I [G] will fight [A] for you.

But I [Bm] was comfortable [C#m] and warm inside [D] my shell .
And couldn't [Bm] see this place [A] could soon become [D] my hell.
