F  Dm  Bb  Bb
==VERSE==
FI'm never gonna give up
DmRemember what abuse did
BbIt's time you look at facing
BbAs if you were in anyway understood
FIt always lowered me to downsize
DmIt always lowered my faith
BbBut it's in the corner rising next to me
BbIt's in the corner like it upstage
==CHORUS==
FI can't explain the way I feel Dminside
(Maybe because it's) I'm thrBbough
(Yeah, you heard it so I) lBbight you up
FYou can't admit your poison, go run and Dmhide
(Maybe because it's) Fuck Bbyou
(Yeah, you heard it so I) Bblight you up
==VERSE==
FI said I wouldn't fail you
DmIt's something sorry couldn't sell you
BbA slow rain, a time bomb
BbDisconnect it won't erase what I'd done wrong
FIn no way is it worth
DmLosing everything I am including these words
BbYour heart in my hands
BbI'm sick as all my secrets that's why this hurts
==CHORUS==
FI can't explain the way I feel Dminside

FYou can't admit your poison, go run and Dmhide
(Maybe because it's) Fuck Bbyou
(Yeah, you heard it so I) Bblight you up
==BRIDGE==
FIt put me in the crazy house
And it put me in the crazy farm
DmAnd I'm never gonna get back out
I'm never ever gonna treat you wrong
BbGet down to the earth and the people
Get down to the earth in your bed
BbThat's where I'm gonna go
And where I'll never go up in my motherfucking head
FSo tell your mom, tell your dad, tell your family
DmThat I'm beyond the unreasonable sinking ship
BbYou see I never took the time
Never took the time, Never took the time
BbTo learn all about these things you call a relationship
==CHORUS==
FI can't explain the way I feel Dminside

LIGHT YOU UP - Blue October

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

==INTRO==

F Dm Bb Bb

==VERSE==

I'm never gonna give up

Remember what abuse did

It's time you look at facing

As if you were in anyway understood

It always lowered me to downsize

It always lowered my faith

But it's in the corner rising next to me

It's in the corner like it upstage

==CHORUS==

F Dm

I can't explain the way I feel inside

(Maybe because it's) I'm through

(Yeah, you heard it so I) light you up

F Dm

You can't admit your poison, go run and hide

(Maybe because it's) Fuck you

(Yeah, you heard it so I) light you up

==VERSE==

I said I wouldn't fail you

It's something sorry couldn't sell you

A slow rain, a time bomb

Disconnect it won't erase what I'd done wrong

In no way is it worth

Losing everything I am including these words

Your heart in my hands

I'm sick as all my secrets that's why this hurts

==CHORUS==

F Dm

I can't explain the way I feel inside

(Maybe because it's) I'm through

(Yeah, you heard it so I) light you up

F Dm

You can't admit your poison, go run and hide

(Maybe because it's) Fuck you

(Yeah, you heard it so I) light you up

==BRIDGE==

It put me in the crazy house

And it put me in the crazy farm

And I'm never gonna get back out

I'm never ever gonna treat you wrong

Get down to the earth and the people

Get down to the earth in your bed

That's where I'm gonna go

And where I'll never go up in my motherfucking head

So tell your mom, tell your dad, tell your family

That I'm beyond the unreasonable sinking ship

You see I never took the time

Never took the time, Never took the time

To learn all about these things you call a relationship

==CHORUS==

F Dm

I can't explain the way I feel inside

(Maybe because it's) I'm through

(Yeah, you heard it so I) light you up

F Dm

You can't admit your poison, go run and hide

(Maybe because it's) Fuck you

(Yeah, you heard it so I) light you up
