Verse 1:
[F] [F7] [A7]I was in the other room [F] [F7] [A7]
[F] [F7] [A7]Just laying on the carpet [F] [F7] [A7]
[F] [F7] [A7]Sinking like a summer moon [F] [F7] [A7]
[F] [F7] [A7]Slipping through a tar pit [F] [F7] [A7]

Bridge:
[Gm] I watched the windows shatter[Bbm]shatter
As if it ever mattered[F]mattered
And for once in my life I [A]see things for what they are
And not through [Bb]the lens of profit and achievement
[Bb] It’s nothing when you need it
[F] One of those fortune cookie procla[A]proclamations
[A] That I could never swallow[Gm]swallow
You weren’t meant to see that[Bbm]that
All the xxxx I should hold back[F]back
'Cause it’s all in my head and
I can [A]see it through your swampy eyes
That I won’t [Gm]always be the [Bbm]only one for[F]for [F7] [A7]you[F]you [F7] [A7] yo[F]u [F7] [A7] [F]
