Capo 2nd
1st verse
----------
Am C
Take this bloody war of mine away
F
I'm lost for words to say
C Em
Will they greet me at dawn
Am C
Take these muddy thoughts that are my walls
F
I'm not ready for the call
C E
That will greet me at dawn
Pre-Chorus
----------
Am
I just take what someone wants
C
Race when I'm in front
Em G
Break what i don't need
D F C
It's nice to watch somebody bre - athe, for me
E
I am tired of my own
Chorus
----------
Am
Well now come sit next to me
C
I'm not sleeping with a bride to be
F
Been wasting time like it just doesn't matter very much
C Em
So I'm happy for the company
Am
And I sat here for eternity
C
No wife and no family
F
And I thank you very much
And I'm flattered by the touch
D E
When you say that you're in love with me
F D
Won't you breathe for me
E Am
I am tired of my own

----------
Am C
Race me to the horror at the end
F
I've lost myself again
C Em
In the mirror of my past

----------
Am C
Let me, let me scratch at my own skin
F
I'm dying to get in

To the mirror of my past
