[Verse 1]
See the shadows Dover there
When the dim lamplight hAits your chair
These are thoughts I Enever say
I make them hide and Dgo awAay
Overlooking Dwhat I see
In the past got the Abest of me
Orange curtains and Epale blue walls
If I can’t win I’m a Dlose it Aall

[Verse 2]
I talk to my Dcigarettes
The most they listen is Aten minutes
But I’ll have anEother one
It’s a new pack so Dthey can’t Arun
Sometimes people Dwalk the way
When they overhear Awhat I say
It’s just the Esame old call
If I can’t win I’m going to Dlose it Aall
[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
Take a walk arDound this room
And the gifts that you Atook too soon
Too many Ememories
Drags out the Dworst in Ame
Saw pictures beDcome the self
Was alone so I Ahelped myself
Standing up and Ewatch it fall
If I can’t win I’m going to Dlose it Aall
Standing up and Ewatch it fall
EIf I can’t win I’m going to lose it all

[Intro]

A A A

[Verse 1]

See the shadows over there

When the dim lamplight hits your chair

These are thoughts I never say

D A

I make them hide and go away

Overlooking what I see

In the past got the best of me

Orange curtains and pale blue walls

D A

If I can’t win I’m a lose it all

[Instrumental]

D Bm E

[Verse 2]

I talk to my cigarettes

The most they listen is ten minutes

But I’ll have another one

D A

It’s a new pack so they can’t run

Sometimes people walk the way

When they overhear what I say

It’s just the same old call

D A

If I can’t win I’m going to lose it all

[Instrumental]

D Bm E

[Verse 3]

Take a walk around this room

And the gifts that you took too soon

Too many memories

D A

Drags out the worst in me

Saw pictures become the self

Was alone so I helped myself

Standing up and watch it fall

D A

If I can’t win I’m going to lose it all

Standing up and watch it fall

If I can’t win I’m going to lose it all
