Em                          D 
Road of shattered glass and vinegar 
        Am          C    D  Em 
Oh, how far home is from me now 
      D             Am           C     D Em 
And I made myself a bed of roses where I can't see you 
            D          Em 
And I can't see you anymore 

(D Em) 

Am                  C          D 
And I heard from my father and my mother: 
 Em               D                Em 
"Hold god's hand, one day you will soar" 
Am              C                 D 
I heard from my girlfriend and my brother: 
 Em              D                 Em 
"Who would know, one day you'd let go?" 
 D                 Em 
"One day you'd let go" 

(D Em) 

Em                D       Am 
Formulas and scientific attempts 
          C D   Em 
What have I not tried by now 
         D                    Am            C    D   Em 
Hurts to say goodbye when you know it's the last one 
D    Em 
Last one 

Am             C              D 
And I heard it coming from my conscious: 
Em           D         Em 
"Out of bed! Time will surely pass" 
Am                  C               D 
I squint my eyes to see how far was left to 
Em          D             Em 
Get to you, going on this road of glass 
D             Em 
Going on this road of glass 

    Em D        Em       D 
And I  tried to spend my life, far, far 
Em      D        Em       D 
But you chose to go after me 
     Em         D       C    D 
Even though I'd been so lost 

             Em 
And I was so lost
