 GThe glass is Emhalf empty, Cdon't you see
 GThere's nothing I can Emdo to change these Ctired meloDdies
 GCrawling Emaround on all Cfours
 AmPassing up all the Copen doors
 GCrowded Emroom full of Cfurrowed brows
 GLooking at Emme like it's Cnot my Dhouse
 GSlowly Emback out the Cdoorway
 AmI'll be back some Cother day
 AmMaybe a lifetime, CI can't say
So, Geasy Cdoes it my friend
 AmGot a long way Cto the Dend
 GSlow it down, slow it Cdown again
 AmOr you'll never be Clet back in
G Em G Em G Em C
My Gfingers paEmss all these Cworn out strings
 GMy body Emshakes under the Cheaviest of Dthings
 GWhat is Emright, and what is Cwrong
 AmOne man's blood upon my Ctrembling palms
 GPut up a Emgood enough Cfight
 GThe earth it Emshifts left and the Cmoon and shifts Dright
 GTwisted, Emtangled in Clove and in life
 AmOne more step and CI'll be gone
 AmFar down 'neath the cCemetery lawn
So, Geasy Cdoes it my friend
 AmGot a long way Cto the Dend
GSlow it down, sClow it down again
 AmOr you'll never be Clet back in
So, Geasy Cdoes it my friend
 AmGot a long way Cto the Dend
GSlow it down, Cslow it down again
 AmOr you'll never be Clet back in, oh

[Intro]:

G Em G Em G Em C

(x2)

G Em C

The glass is half empty, don't you see

G Em C D

There's nothing I can do to change these tired melodies

G Em C

Crawling around on all fours

Am C

Passing up all the open doors

G Em C

Crowded room full of furrowed brows

G Em C D

Looking at me like it's not my house

G Em C

Slowly back out the doorway

Am C

I'll be back some other day

Am C

Maybe a lifetime, I can't say

G C

So, easy does it my friend

Am C D

Got a long way to the end

G C

Slow it down, slow it down again

Am C

Or you'll never be let back in

G Em G Em G Em C

G Em C

My fingers pass all these worn out strings

G Em C D

My body shakes under the heaviest of things

G Em C

What is right, and what is wrong

Am C

One man's blood upon my trembling palms

G Em C

Put up a good enough fight

G Em C D

The earth it shifts left and the moon and shifts right

G Em C

Twisted, tangled in love and in life

Am C

One more step and I'll be gone

Am C

Far down 'neath the cemetery lawn

G C

So, easy does it my friend

Am C D

Got a long way to the end

G C

Slow it down, slow it down again

Am C

Or you'll never be let back in

G C

So, easy does it my friend

Am C D

Got a long way to the end

G C

Slow it down, slow it down again

Am C

Or you'll never be let back in, oh
