                [ch]G[/ch]                [ch]Bm[/ch]\r\n     More so than me, She knows my name[/tab]\r\n[tab]              [ch]F[/ch]                     [ch]C[/ch]\r\nAnd more so than me, Understands this pain[/tab]\r\n[tab]             [ch]G[/ch]                    [ch]Bm[/ch]\r\nI'm either too lost, Or not lost enough[/tab]\r\n[tab]            [ch]F[/ch]

affects me in this way[/tab]\r\n[tab]                      [ch]Bm[/ch]\r\nDon't know where I'll go if I leave here today[/tab]\r\n[tab]              [ch]F[/ch]\r\nBut I know my limits and you're not the type[/tab]\r\n[tab]               [ch]C[/ch]\r\nTo be fooling around in this way[/tab]\r\n[tab]                                  [ch]G[/ch]\r\nNo reason you're here but there's reasons to stay[/tab]\r\n[tab]                            [ch]Bm[/ch]\r\nNot as easy to know as it's easy to say[/tab]\r\n[tab]                           [ch]F[/ch]\r\n'Cause to my family and my friends I can't

me[/tab]\r\n[tab]   [ch]F[/ch]\r\nMore[/tab]\r\n[tab]       [ch]C[/ch]\r\nFor me[/tab]\r\n\r\n\r\n[Verse 2]\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nAge 14 at midnight I hear voices from the kitchen[/tab]\r\n[tab]  [ch]Bm[/ch]\r\nI let my feet follow the sound as I let my ears listen[/tab]\r\n[tab]  [ch]F[/ch]\r\nI walk upstairs and at the kitchen table I can see[/tab]\r\n[tab]            [ch]C[/ch]\r\nThat God is sitting with the Devil, sharing drinks and old stories[/tab]\r\n[tab]               [ch]G[/ch]\r\nThe floorboard creaks a red embarrassment floods all throughout God's face[/tab]\r\n[tab]               [ch]Bm[/ch]\r\nHe swears that it's not what it looks like, then he swears he can explain[/tab]\r\n[tab]          [ch]F[/ch]\r\nThe Devil speaks, \"Your God and I put all our differences to rest[/tab]\r\n[tab]            [ch]C[/ch]\r\nNow man's actions are his own, but man will blame us nonetheless\"[/tab]\r\n[tab]          [ch]G[/ch]\r\nThe Devil stands, he grabs his keys and straightens out a rusted crown[/tab]\r\n[tab]            [ch]Bm[/ch]\r\nHe tells me, \"Hell is frozen over, Heaven burned down to the ground[/tab]\r\n[tab]             [ch]F[/ch]\r\nAnd you have only got one life, so do with it what you would like[/tab]\r\n[tab]         [ch]C[/ch]\r\nWe solemnly apologize but we won't be there when you die\"[/tab]\r\n\r\n\r\n[Chorus]\r\n[tab]            [ch]G[/ch]\r\nAnd I stand cold and alone, in a body that won't move[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]F#m[/ch]\r\nWatching the eyes of these gods that I once knew[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]F[/ch]\r\nOne pair looks down in a half-hearted lie while the[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]\r\nOther looks straight into mine with a whole truth[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nLacking the fear I've been told that God deserves[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]F#m[/ch]\r\nI say, \"What good is a prayer that goes unheard\"[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]F[/ch]\r\nHe says, \"What hope could they find in a book[/tab]\r\n[tab]       [ch]C[/ch]\r\nIf the book doesn't sell and the pages stay unturned\"[/tab]\r\n\r\n\r\n[Instrumental]\r\n[ch]G[/ch]   [ch]Bm[/ch]\r\n\r\n\r\n[Verse 3]\r\n[tab]    [ch]F[/ch]\r\nAnd with a wink, the Devil turns and exits the back door[/tab]\r\n[tab]           [ch]C[/ch]\r\nAnd God is standing there in silence with his eyes glued to the floor[/tab]\r\n[tab]            [ch]G[/ch]\r\nBut then he speaks \"I am no savior but I give them what they need[/tab]\r\n[tab]              [ch]Bm[/ch]\r\nAnd there has never been a dreamer who prefers reality[/tab]\r\n[tab]            [ch]F[/ch]\r\nThe war for truth is raging on but it's not one you have to fight[/tab]\r\n[tab]          [ch]C[/ch]\r\nAnd if it is the truth you want, then it is hope you'll sacrifice[/tab]\r\n[tab]              [ch]G[/ch]\r\nIt's yours to choose,[/tab]\r\n[tab]            [ch]Bm[/ch]\r\nAnd you can choose[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]F[/ch]\r\nThis is not the way I am, this is just how I was raised[/tab]\r\n[tab]    [ch]C[/ch]\r\nSo let me make up my own mind, let me map out my own way[/tab]\r\n[tab]    [ch]G[/ch]\r\nAnd to the parents of the kids with tongues down in their throats[/tab]\r\n[tab]           [ch]Bm[/ch]\r\nBecause of tears that you will cry if they don't stick to what they know[/tab]\r\n[tab]                [ch]F[/ch]\r\nI'm sure you're giving it your best, and I am sure it takes a toll[/tab]\r\n[tab]            [ch]C[/ch]\r\nBut whether God given or not, our lives are not to be controlled[/tab]\r\n[tab]            [ch]G[/ch]\r\nJust let us
