  			Intro 4x: Am  C 

Am 
Weep for yourself, my man, 
                               C 
you'll never be what is in your heart. 
Am 
Weep little lion man, 
                                       C 
you're not as brave as you were at the start. 
G 
Rate yourself and rake yourself, 
F            Fmaj7            C 
take all the courage you have left. 
G 
Wasted on fixing all the 
F                Fmaj7             C 
problems that you made in your own head. 

         Am          F          C 
But it was not your fault but mine, 
         Am         F         C 
and it was your heart on the line. 
         Am        F        C 
I really fucked it up this time, 
             G 
didn't I, my dear? 
                  Am 
Didn't I, my dear? 

( Am  C ) (2x) 

Tremble for yourself my man,

you know that you have seen this all before. 
Am 
Tremble little lion man, 
                                C 
you'll never settle any of your scores. 
G 
Your grace is wasted in your face, 
     F               Fmaj7            C 
your boldness stands alone among the wreck. 
G 
Learn from your mother or else 
F               Fmaj7            C 
spend your days biting your own neck. 

         Am          F          C 
But it was not your fault but mine, 
         Am         F         C 
and it was your heart on the line. 
         Am        F        C

didn't I, my dear?

But it was not your fault but mine,

and it was your heart on the line. 
         Am        F        C 
I really fucked it up this time, 
             G

                  Am 
Didn't I, my dear?
