C G Dm C G Am (Bis) (Disto)
Verse 1:
C G Dm
Rolling down the mountain of your over achieved love
C G Am
feels like going away in a field trip.
C G Dm
All those prayers never went out to you
C G Am
even though you keep saying they were.
C G Dm
How can you be coy when all the people around you
C G Am
Won’t remember your name much too long now.
C G Dm
Feel like changing your life?
C G F
You can fake it all the way to the grave…
(Chorus)
Am F C E
The lowest of the low is always higher than somebody else
“To have and not to hold” will be the carving on your epitaph
Am F C
You say: Find a den, stay within
E Am
Starve for days and never go outside
F C
Like a wise man on the corner
F
If you shout it they’ll believe.

C G Dm
Staring out the window watching time passing me by
C G Am
Won’t alleviate weight of my shoulders.
C G Dm
All the stones I threw into the river
C G Am
might as well be the days of my own life.
C G Dm
Stranded in the middle of a statue and a beggar
C G Am
All the high hopes that I left for sinking
C G Dm Dm Dm Dm
Someone saw it coming along today…
(Chorus)
Am F C E
Deny yourself, speak not the truth, pretend you are somebody else
When all you really want is to succeed in someone else’s shoes.
Am F C
You say: Find a den, stay within,
E Am
starve for days and never go outside
F C
Like a wise man on a corner
E
You’ll be feeling strangely fine
