VERSE
F
I thought I saw a man brought to life
Am Bb9
He was warm; he came around like he was dignified
He showed me what it was to cry
VERSE
F
Well you couldn't be that man that I adored
Am Bb9
You don't seem to know, seem to care, what your heart is for
But I don't know him anymore
PRE-CHORUS
Dm
There's nothing where he used to lie
C7
My conversation has run dry
Am
That's what's going on
Bb9 F
Nothing's fine, I'm torn

CHORUS
F C7
I'm all out of faith
Dm
This is how I feel
Bb9
I'm cold and I am shamed, lying naked on the floor
F C7
Illusion never changed
Dm
Into something real
Bb9 F
I'm wide awake and I can see the perfect sky is torn
C7
You're a little late
Dm Bb9
I'm already torn
VERSE
F
So I guess the fortune teller's right
Am Bb9
I should've seen just what was there and not some holy light
But you crawled beneath my veins and now
PRE-CHORUS
Dm
I don't care, I have no luck
C7
I don't miss it all that much
Am Bb9
There's just so many things
F
That I can touch, I'm torn
CHORUS
PRE-CHORUS
Dm
There's nothing where he used to lie
C7
My inspiration has run dry
Am
That's what's going on
Bb9 F
Nothing's fine, I'm torn
CHORUS
F C7
I'm all out of faith
Dm
This is how I feel
Bb9
I'm cold and I am shamed, lying naked on the floor
F C7
Illusion never changed
Dm
Into something real
Bb9 F
I'm wide awake and I can see the perfect sky is torn
F C7
I'm all out of faith
Dm
This is how I feel
Bb9 F
I'm cold and I'm ashamed, bound and broken on the floor
C7
You're a little late
Dm Bb9
I'm already torn
