I've been working longer hours

watching money streaming in

liars like I don't have any

friends I've been finding

myself praying when

happiness again
Verse 2:

It's been painful
C
resolution set to
G D
jubilant applause

It's soaring highs

and crushing lows and
G# A G# A
grinding in the jaw
G# G
It's been begging
D
for forgiveness
A
after laying down the

surgery to work

through all the flaws
Refrain 1:

Will this overture

seem dull to

all my friends?

Will you love

me if I leave

you here again?

that could cause

the dancing to start

I've been standing at
C
a crossroads for what
G D
seems like many days
Bm
If I go will the house
G G#
fall down will I burn
A G# A G#
it if I stay? Should I be
G D
fighting like coward

or running like a brave?

Will I be laughing like
A D D(hold)
a madman either way?

Bm
Will this overture

me if I leave

When the spell
breaks we'll
D
be back to work
G
what then?
Chorus 2: chords in slashes are only done by bass

There's a faith

that could tear this

whole thing apart

Em
that could cause
G /A /B /C#
the dancing to start
D
There are lies that
Em
could tear this whole
G D
thing apart And there
are songs that will
Em G
beg to keep your heart
D
there are songs that will
Em G
beg to keep your heart
