[Verse 1]
G#mI feel younger everyF#day
The more I G#mgrow, the less I seem to F#know
G#mI've been trying to keep my head F#straight
Where I G#mroam, it never feels like F#home
You feel the Eweight of the world coming F#down on your head
There's people Elooking at you, and now they're F#pulling you back
I've got a Ecircle of ink, it's in the F#palm of my hand
And I Ethink it will be there for F#good
[Pre-Chorus]
We take a Epiece of ourselves, we draw a F#line in the sand
We say "don't Ecross this, or else," and then F#we put up a flag
Oh, how we Eworship the things that we F#don't quite understand
Oh, it's Emore dangerous than you F#knowB  F#/A#  G#m  
[Chorus]
EI've got a message that you can't ignoreB  F#/A#  G#m  
EMaybe I'm just not the man I was beforeB  F#/A#  F#  
G#mTake this froF#/A#m me, G#mtake this F#/A#lonely G#mheart
'Cause I, 'F#cause I don't Bneed F#/A#it    G#mno  Emore
EI've got a hunger you will never tasteB  F#/A#  G#m  
ECraving a desire that won't go to wasteB  F#/A#  F#  
G#mTake this froF#/A#m me, G#mtake this F#/A#lonely G#mheart
And F#I, I'm gonna Bmake F#/A#it    F#my  G#mownG#m  F#/A#  B  C#m  D#  
[Verse 2]
G#mSomeone took my ego awayF#  
Hey, so G#mlong, won't miss it now, it's F#gone
G#mNow my youth is being replacedF#  
So, good D#mnight, it's G#mgonna be alF#right
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause now I Edrink the good wine and now I F#get out of bed
And now I E/G#let myself love and I'm not F#scared of the end
I take it Eall on the chin and I would F#do it again
Because E/G#maybe it's time for a F#change
I've got a G#mpain in my neck, because I C#mkeep looking up
I'm searching Ewhat's coming next, but it won't F#come from above
And there's a G#mhole in my chest, like there's a C#mhole in the sun
So tell me, what's Ecoming next? I'm searching, F#what's coming next?
I've got a G#mpain in my neck, because I keep C#mlooking up
I'm searching Ewhat's coming next, but it won't F#come from above
And there's a G#mhole in my chest and I'll C#mmake it my EownB  F#/A#  G#m  
[Chorus]
EI've got a message that you can't ignoreB  F#/A#  G#m  
EMaybe I'm just not the man I was beforeB  F#/A#  F#  
G#mTake this froF#/A#m me, G#mtake this F#/A#lonely G#mheart
'Cause I, 'F#cause I don't Bneed F#/A#it    G#mno  Emore
EI've got a hunger you will never tasteB  F#/A#  G#m  
C#mCraving a desire that won't go to waste
G#mTake this froF#/A#m me, G#mtake this F#/A#lonely G#mheart
And F#I, I'm gonna make it my own
[Interlude]
E F# E F# E/B F# E/B F# E F# E F#
[Outro]
It's a F#chance that you take, that you lose who you have been
EWhen you break all the chains that you feel comfortable in
F#It's a chance that I take, so my hunger can be free
EIn the end, in the F#end, in the G#mend, in the F#/A#end
