Sonic Syndicate – My Escape
(capo 3)
Intro:			F  Am  
 F  Am
(verse)
FI see Amthe world through eyes of desperation
NeveFr knew how long I'd fall 
But I Amfell through years and years of darkness 
StilFl I cannot seem to hit the ground
(pre-chorus)
I leGt my guaFrd down and you caught me by surprise 
NothiGng is ever carved in stone
[Chorus]
CWill AmI spend my life wondering 
What could have been 
If CI didn't throw it away 
Or will I struggle on 
And fiAmnd a better path for myself
(same as verse)
I've built my life upon decades of experience 
But what I built for years took days for you to raze 
In the end I learned that one single snowflake 
Can set an avalanche in motion
(same as pre-chorus)
Some questions are dangerous, the truth is not an option 
This is the illusion I pulled down over your eyes 
But I left my guard down and you caught me by surprise 
Nothing is ever carved in stone
[Chorus]
FI secAmure my eGvery Gstep, Fslowly I advance away from you
HoAmw caGn I Gforgive you when it wasn't your fault
Will I spend my life wondering 
What could have been
[Chorus][2x]
Note1: You can play a G between F and Am in verses
Note2: You can also quickly pass from Am and back to G halfway through second pre-chorus

Sonic Syndicate – My Escape

(capo 3)

F Am

Intro:

F Am

(verse)

F Am

I see the world through eyes of desperation

Never knew how long I'd fall

But I fell through years and years of darkness

Still I cannot seem to hit the ground

(pre-chorus)

G F

I let my guard down and you caught me by surprise

Nothing is ever carved in stone

[Chorus]

C Am

Will I spend my life wondering

What could have been

If I didn't throw it away

Or will I struggle on

And find a better path for myself

(same as verse)

I've built my life upon decades of experience

But what I built for years took days for you to raze

In the end I learned that one single snowflake

Can set an avalanche in motion

(same as pre-chorus)

Some questions are dangerous, the truth is not an option

This is the illusion I pulled down over your eyes

But I left my guard down and you caught me by surprise

Nothing is ever carved in stone

[Chorus]

F Am G G F

I secure my every step, slowly I advance away from you

Am G G

How can I forgive you when it wasn't your fault

Will I spend my life wondering

What could have been

[Chorus][2x]

Note1: You can play a G between F and Am in verses

Note2: You can also quickly pass from Am and back to G halfway through second pre-chorus
