(Lyrics)
I left my head at home, buried in the backyard with the dog
I've thought of leaving more times than once
I'll leave you alone, I tried so hard to be the rock
But all I felt like was a wet sponge
I want to run
I just can't
The things it takes to be man
I want to run, I'm not proud of the things, I have done
Don't let my living bring you, down
You'll never know, how much it hurts to nod, when I'm the son
I'll never stand and watch you, drown
I'm under a spell, this isn't what I want for us
We've had it all together this long
My spine's deep as well, my heart is bigger than you know
This memory is just a sad song
I want to run
I just can't
The things it takes to be a man
I want to run, I'm not proud of the things, I have done
Don't let my living bring you, down
You'll never know, how much it hurts to nod, when I'm the son
I cannot stay and watch you drown
Tab written by Joobies567
Thank you all for reading my tab! This is one of my first tabs,
so it may not be perfect. The only other tab of this song that I
could find on here was a pro tab, and if you guys are anything like
me, you don't really care for those! So, yeah, I might do
"Two of a kind" by Daylight pretty soon also, since the only tab
I could find of that song on the whole internet is just the acoustic part
at the end(but it is pretty cool). I also might do "Covet" by Basement.
Okay, I'll quit talking now, thanks again everybody, bye!
