This song is played half a step down and this is how I play it acoustically...
Em
Where to now?
D
Drifting his body
Cutting you down
Am
And I can't pretend
G
His eyes don't burn, no
D
In your skin
Em D
Now all I see is the filth
Am
In the hands of another man
His face in my thoughts,
G
My words become lost
D
And no longer make sense
Am Em
Am I lost forever?
Am
The damage has been done
D Em
For so long
Em D
How did you ever see me broken?
Am G Em
Well you forced me to find out everyday
D
Did you ever see me open?
Am G Em
Well you forced me to find out everyday
(these two next parts were hard...I think you just switch between Em and D?)
Nobody could,
Could you help this, no
The depths that I was brought up
The depths that I was brought up
Brought up
Oh well is it any wonder
Shallow is the way that I was born
Shallow is the way that I was born
The way that I was brought up, up
Tonight
