not necessarily the correct chord variations, but they work 

(Intro) 
G  Bm  F  F 
G  Bm  F  Em 

G              Bm                            F              
I miss the days my mind would just rest quiet 
G               Bm               F                  Em 
My imagination hadn't turned on me yet 
G            Bm                   F         
I used to let my words wax poetic 
C                       Cm 
But it melted a puddle at my feet now 
G         Bm         F                
It is a calcifying crime, it's tragic 
G                    Bm          F                  Em 
I've turned to petrified past life baggage 
G             Bm            F                    
I want to disappear and just start over 
C                Cm 
So here we are 
C 
And I'll breathe again... 


Em                            G 
Cause I have sent for a warrior 
D                               
From on my knees, make me a Hercules 
Em                    G                D 
I was meant to be a warrior please 
Make me a Hercules 

G  Bm  F  Em 

I've lost a grip on where I started from 
I wish I'd thought ahead and left a few crumbs 
I'm on the hunt for who I've not yet become 
But I'd settle for a little equilibrium 
There is a war inside my heart gone silent 
Both sides dissatisfied and somewhat violent 
The issue I have now begun to see 
I am the only lonely casualty 

This is not the end though... 

(Chorus) 

(bridge) 
Am           Em 
This is my darkest hour 
Em                      D 
A long road has lead me out here 
Am                   Em                    C            Am 
But I only need turn around to face the light 
C            D 
And decide flight or fight
