GEmC I went out looking for the answers and never left my town. GD I’m no good at understanding, but I’m good at standing ground. GEm And when I asked a corner preacher I couldn’t hear him for my CGD youth. Some people get religion some people get the truth. I CG never get the truth, I never get the truth.
Chorus: BmCG I know the darkness falls on you. And it’s just a point of view DEm When you’re outside looking in you belong to someone and when CAm you feel like giving in and the coming of the end, like your C (Strum) G heart can break in two, someone loves you.
GEmC I lay this suitcase on my chest so I can feel somebody’s weight. GD And I lay you to rest just to feel a give and take? GEmC I got a new interpretation and it’s a better point of view, you GD were looking for a landslide I was looking out for you, I was CG looking out for you, someone’s looking out for you
Chorus: BmCG I know the darkness falls on you. And it’s just a point of view DEm When you’re outside looking in you belong to someone and when CAm you feel like giving in and the coming of the end, like your CG heart can break in two, someone loves you.
Bridge G (strum) Em (strum) I am afraid of crossing lines. I am afraid of flying blind.
C (strum) G(Strum) D(strum) afraid of inquiring minds. Afraid of being left behind.
GEmC I close my eyes I think of you, I take a step I think of you, GD I catch my breath I think of you, I cannot rest I think of you
Last Chorus BmC My one and only wrecking ball, and you’re cutting through my GDEm walls. When you’re outside looking in you belong to someone and CAm when you feel like giving in and the coming of the end, like CG your heart could break in two, someone loves you.
