Em              
Don't you say you had a part of it 
D 
guess we'll never know 
Em 
Oh would you say that had a part of it 
D                         G             Em 
Well I guess we'll never know 

Constant recovery 
                D                                        G 
I see you choke and it takes my breath away 
Em                                      D 
But all is good, we close our eyes 
                           A 
They all accept the lie 
C          G            Am              Em 
So bury what you are outside 
                                D     G      C 
Brother, promise you won't leave me 

Em                           C 
I know you're tortured within 
                       Em      C 
Your eyes look hungry again 
                  A                 C 
But I'll never wander, my friend 

E                      Em                                D       G  D  Am 
And so I scream, "Mayday, I'm in trouble, send somebody on the double." 
                 C                       G    D 
Scratching at the floor inside my mind 
             G            Em 
They all accept the lie 
             G           Am          Em 
So bury what you are outside 
                                   Am 
Brother, please don't be afraid of... 

Em                           C 
I know you're tortured within 
Em      C 
Your eyes look hungry again 
      A                 C 
But I'll never wander, my friend 
          
         A 
I let you down 
                    G    C 
And I started to run 
Em     F           G        A 
Never meant to be your pain 
G 
What have I become? 
C            Em                           Am 
Show me and show me the way back 
F                         Am   C 
Show me the way back home 
    
    G    C          E    Am    C 
I know you're tortured within 
                       Em A    Am   C     
Your eyes look hungry again 
      Am         A               C 
But I'll never wander, my friend 
           G       Am A   C 
No, I'll never wander again 
Em 
I know what I want, 
C 
But it's not what I need 
E 
Can I just have one more taste 
                                  Em 
Just to make it through the day 
G 
You're tangled in 
Am    A                   G     Em 
You're tangled in the great escape 
G       Em 
Great escape, oh 

E                                 Am   C    
I never meant to hurt nobody, no no, yeah 
E Am                                            C 
I never meant to hurt you, no no no no 
Em                                        C         Em       Am  C  
I only meant to do this to myself, to myself, to myself 
Em 
Great escape 
C 
Great escape 
         E 
Great escape 
Am   C 
Oh, great escape 
A                  C  
Let me out of this, yeah (2x)
