Intro: Am F C Em7 (x2)
verse 1
Am F C C/E
It's hard to walk through all the places that your life used to be in
Am F C C/E
So you thought you'd shed a layer, maybe try on some new skin
Am F C C/E
Your friends are all imaginary, your shrink stopped answering her phone
Am F C C/E
So you decide to make incisions at your home while you're alone, all alone
Am F C Em7 (x2)
Am F C C/E
But you're no tailor, you're no surgeon, none of your cuts go very straight
Am F C C/E
Every new layer you uncover reveals something else you hate
Am F C C/E
And then you cracked your head, and broke some bones
Am F C C/E
And when you glued them back together you found out you did it wrong
Am F C Em7
Well this is the same logic that got us into trouble the first time
Am
(When we discovered we could use)
F C
The same logic to get us out of trouble
Em7 Am
And shake off all the people we abuse
C Am
I don't need to know where you come from
C Am
If you don't know where you belong
F C C/E
So how's it feel to walk around, like you're some sort of freak
Am F
You're just an actor, ain't no doctor
C C/E
Ashamed of what you used to be
Am Am Am Am C Am (x4)
*Single Strums
verse 2
Am F C C/E
And you've got your kind of brand new face on, where all the skin's pulled thin and taut
Am F C C/E
And every kid you see starts crying so you stop going out for walks
Am F C C/E
Well I guess nothing can be perfect, so here's a comforting thought
Am F C C/E
At the bottom of the ocean fish won't judge you by your faults
(Judge you by your faults)
Am F C Em7
Well this is the same logic that got us into trouble the first time
Am
(When we discovered we could use)
F C
The same logic to get us out of trouble
Em7 Am
And shake off all the people we abuse
C Am
Don't need to know where you come from
C Am
If you don't know where you belong
F C C/E
So how's it feel to walk around, like you're some sort of freak
Am F
You're just an actor, but now they caught you
C C/E
Ashamed of what you used to be
Am Am Am Am C Am (x4)

Outro

Boy, we gave you every opportunity
Am Am7 C C/E
Boy we gave our hands to get you off your knees
Am Am7 C C/E
Boy sat at our table and ate everything
Am Am7 C C/E
You say that you're still hungry, then bite the plates and break your teeth
Am
