  			Intro: Dm Bb Am 


Verse: 1 
Dm 
Time lost, miles away 
In a world of bullets 
Bb                 F 
In a bed, an empty space 
          Am 
A picture frame, a portrait 

Dm 
The night falls, I'm awake 
I'm left to rust in silence 
Bb             F 
Withdraw my mistakes 
            C 
I'm left to trust in violence 


Pre-Chorus: 
Dm E F A 

Bb 
Well can you teach me how to fly 
In a world so shallow? 

Dm E F A 

Bb                    C 
Will you show me I'm alive 
          Am 
Or find a way to get home 

 
Dm 
  Well I'm alive 
But paralyzed 
                          Bb 
By the sight of bloodshed fights 
                            Am 
Shoot 'em right between the eyes 
             C 
Can I let it go 
When I'm leaving? 

Dm 
  I'm weak inside 
But built to fight 
                          Bb 
Living life through compromise 
                      C 
Terrified to prove me right 
               Am 
Can I let this go 
When I'm leaving? 


Verse: 2 
Dm 
Headstones borrow names 
Inscribed by anxious patients 
Bb                     F 
A fate calls, a blurry fate 
            Am 
Lies in the hands we're chased with 

Dm 
I'm bearing all 
Bombs away 
                           Bb 
Curing fear with makeshift plans 
                              F 
Conquer the fall, we'll do it 
            C 
Comfort the fall with bullshit 


Pre-Chorus 
Dm E F A 

Bb 
  Can you teach me how to fly 
In a world so shallow? 

Dm E F A 

Bb                   C 
Will you show me I'm alive 
          Am 
Or find a way to get home 


Dm 
  Well I'm alive 
But paralyzed 
                          Bb 
By the sight of bloodshed fights 
                            Am 
Shoot 'em right between the eyes 
             C 
Can I let it go 
When I'm leaving? 

Dm 
  I'm weak inside 
But built to fight 
                          Bb 
Living life through compromise 
                      C 
Terrified to prove me right 
               Am 
Can I let this go 
When I'm leaving?
