(Verse)
(Bm) I'm tryna outrun my mind
(G) reminding myself of every-(D)thing I'd leave be-(G)hind
(Bm) But the bottle keeps sellin' me lies
(G) And I'd buy anythiing to get that (D)high (G)
(Bm) I hope God takes mercy on my (G)soul
(D) "Cause I don't wanna (G)let go
(Chorus)
I'm puttin' on (Bm) fake smiles for everyone but me
(G) 'Cause I just can't stand to see (D) my momma cryin'
(G) She can see me dyin'
And I (Bm) keep tryna talk to Jesus, (G) and ask Him to take my demons
(D) And one day I'll be okay, (A) - - - so I pray
(Solo)
|(Bm) / / / |(G) / / / |(D) / / / |(G) / / / |
(Verse)
(Bm) I'm tryna believe in love
(G) It's just gettin' hard to see, (D) through all this blood (G)
(Bm) And when it's not enough, (G) it's kill and be killed
By the (D)thoughts that lost your (G)trust
(Chorus)
I'm puttin' on (Bm) fake smiles for everyone but me
(G) 'Cause I just can't stand to see(D) my momma cryin'
(G) She can see me dyin'
And I (Bm) keep tryna talk to Jesus, (G) and ask Him to take my demons
(D) And one day I'll be okay, (A) - - - so I pray
(Break)
(Bm) And wished I'd knew the answer why
(G) I feel so dead inside, (D) and I'm just gettin' tired (A)
(Chorus)
Of puttin' on (Bm) fake smiles for everyone but me
(G) 'Cause I just can't stand to see (D) my momma cryin'
(G) She can see me dyin'
And I, (Bm) keep tryna talk to Jesus, (G) and ask Him to take my demons
(D) And one day I'll be okay (A) - - - so I pray - - - - -
