There was already a tab on here for this song, but it wasn't right. So I thought
I'd work it out and stick one on here myself. I think is more accurate.
C F
I've got to hand it to you for making it off the island
I was seduced by the traumas
G C
The funeral mourners would whisper in line
C F
I got to give it to you for breaking out of the seasons
I was coerced by a nightmare
G C
Where every knife turned away on a breeze
F G Am G
You walk away across the line
F G Am G
You fade away hung on a wire
F G Am G F G
You fall asleep and tell yourself that this don't matter at all

C F
I've got to give it to you for breaking free of the numbers,
I can't sleep from the gunshots,
G C
And every pin drop I hear on the wind, yeah.
C F
I've got to hand it to you for making it off the island
I was restrained by the warders
G C
Patrolling the borders behind of my eyes
F G Am G
You walk away across the line
F G Am G
You fade away hung on a wire
F G Am G F G
You fall asleep and tell yourself that this don't matter at all
C F G C
C
You walk away
F
Don't walk away
G C
All these things don't matter now.
