[Verse 1]

Am    C       D     Am    C     D         Am

   I hurt myself today to see if I still feel

   C  D         Am     C         D         Am

I focus on the pain the only thing that's real

      C     D        Am    C      D        Am

The needle tears a hole the old familiar sting

        C    D       Am         C     D        G

Try to kill it all away but I remember everything

 

[Chorus]

  Am            F  C                  G

What have I become    my sweetest friend

Am           F          C          G

Everyone I know goes away in the end

     Am                 F  C             G

And you could have it all my empire of dirt

Am               F  G

I will let you down I will make you hurt

[Verse 2]

Am    C          D        Am   C     D         Am

  I wear this crown of thorns upon my liar's chair 

 C       D        Am   C    D      Am

Full of broken thoughts I cannot repair

   C         D        Am        C     D       Am 

Beneath the stains of time the feelings disappear

 C       D        Am  C      D            G

You are someone else   I am still right here

 

[Chorus]

  Am            F  C                  G

What have I become    my sweetest friend

Am           F          C          G

Everyone I know goes away in the end

     Am                 F  C             G

And you could have it all my empire of dirt

Am               F  C                  G

I will let you down I will make you hurt

Am                 F      C              G

If I could start again a million miles away

Am                F  G

I would keep myself  I would find a way
