Intro:
D A Em Em/F# G
G D A G
Well these angels in my eardrums, they can't tell bad from good
G D A G
I've lived inside these melodies just to make sure I still could
D A Em Em/F# G
Then I cried all night even though I'm grown
D A Em Em/F# G
Said, honey hold me close, make it feel like home
D A Em Em/F# G
Cause your love's bright enough to burn all night
D A Em
Sometimes love is a losing fight
Chorus:
G D
You try to keep going, but the ride won't steady
G Bm A
You try to get high, but your heart's too heavy
Em Em/F# G
You got one thing on your mind
Now there's snake eyes on the sidewalk and fireworks overhead
Won't you roll out that red carpet when we all wind up dead
As smoke rings fade like a memory
You're honest as a ghost, maybe twice as free
You've got faith enough to lift this curse
What if faith is just a false god's verse
Chorus
D A Em Em/F# G
Now I'm pulling up devils from the long, dark past
D A Em Em/F# G
But the pain starts piling up too fast
D A Em Em/F# G
I can pin down the minute when I lost my buzz
D A Em
Thought I was somebody nobody could love
Chorus
