[Verse 1]
C#m
Here's my confession
A
I've got a death wish
E
I'm in the fast lane
G#
Addicted to excess
C#m
Living my best life
A
I was on top right
E
Sipping the limelight
G#
A deer in the headlights
[Pre-Chorus]
C#m A
My future used to shine as bright as a diamond
E
Where did time go?
G#
I was so high, it was frightening
C#m A E
I know I messed up, but there's no use in crying
G#
(No use in crying)
C#m
Oh my dear Lord
[Chorus]
A E
I've been running wild, had a good time
G#
But I can't stop now
C#m
(Oh my dear Lord)
A E
Over my head in a landslide
G#
Can you pull me out?
C#m A
Oh my dear Lord
E G#
Oh my dear Lord
C#m
Oh my dear Lord
A E
I've been running wild, had a good time
G#
But I can't stop now
C#m A
Oh my dear Lord
E G#
Oou, oh my dear Lord
[Verse 2]
C#m
I was a good guy
A
But I was the worst type
E
Give me an inch, man
G#
And I'll take a mile
C#m
I'm walking back now
A
Past all the fires
E
Trying to find out
G#
Why I grabbed the lighter
[Pre-Chorus]
C#m A
My future used to shine as bright as a diamond
E
Where did time go?
G#
I was so high, it was frightening
C#m A E
I know I messed up, but there's no use in crying
G#
(No use in crying)
C#m
Oh my dear Lord
[Chorus]
A E
I've been running wild, had a good time
G#
But I can't stop now
C#m
(Oh my dear Lord)
A E
Over my head in a landslide
G#
Can you pull me out?
C#m A
Oh my dear Lord
E G#
Oh my dear Lord
C#m
Oh my dear Lord
A E
I've been running wild, had a good time
G#
But I can't stop now
C#m
Oh my dear Lord
A E
Yeah
G#
Yeah-eh
C#m
(Oh my dear Lord)
A E
Yeah
G#
Yeah-eh
[Bridge]
C#m A E
Been a tyrant, been a pusher, pushing my disease
G#
Breaking bones and taking everything in front of me
C#m A E
Priests and beggars looking up to heaven from their knees
G#
Is anyone listening?
N.C.
Is anyone listening
N.C.
Is anyone listening?
[Chorus]
C#m
Oh my dear Lord
A E
I've been running wild, had a good time
G#
But I can't stop now
C#m
(Oh my dear Lord)
A E
Over my head in a landslide
G#
Can you pull me out?
C#m A
Oh my dear Lord (Yeah)
E G#
Oh my dear Lord (Yeah-eh)
C#m
Oh my dear Lord
A E
I've been running wild, had a good time
G#
But I can't stop now
C#m A
Oh my dear Lord
E G#
Oohh, my dear Lord
