  			Intro: G Am7 C G x2 


G      Am7       C       G 
What should I do? I am lost. 
G               Am7            C              G     
Tell me to leave the next time I'm in front of you  
Am7           G 
I can't relate 
G        Am7 
Chip on your shoulder 
G           Am7 
How do you deal with that weight? 
C            G 
My hands are getting tired. 

Am7            C    G    Am7           C     G 
Call it a joke or a lie. Call it a joke or a lie. 
Am7               C       G        Am7    
Put your coat on, then believe me, I try. 

Let us escape for a night. 
Breathe the silence. 
I am alone, 
But I am alone in this room with you. 

Call it a joke or a lie, call it a joke or a lie. 
Put your coat on, then believe me, I tried. 

Finish on A G.
