Verse:
DbFm Timber shakes these trails they all derail
Bbm Phony, false and frail
AbDb An empty ocean lost our way with no direction home
Fm Golden needles names we take in vein
Bbm Find it harder to remain
Ab And nothings sacred still waiting on that explanation
Chorus:
Db Right before my eyes
Ab I saw the whole world lose control
Bbm The whole world lost control
GbAb Before my eyes uh-huh
Db I fell through the floor
Ab I couldn't take this anymore
Bbm I can't take this anymore
GbAb It breaks my mind uh-huh
Verse:
DbFm Hold your dirty hand over the flames
Bbm Getting pleasure from the pain
Ab Softly screaming the pistol that you raise has spoken
DbFm Golden needles names we take in vein
Bbm Find it harder to remain
Ab Well nothings sacred still waiting on that explanation
Chorus:
Db Right before my eyes
Ab I saw the whole world lose control
Bbm The whole world lost control
GbAb Before my eyes uh-huh
Db I fell through the floor
Ab I couldn't take this anymore
Bbm I can't take this anymore
GbAb It breaks my mind uh-huh
Bridge:
GbBbm Everything I thought I knew fell to the side
GbBbm Time went on and on I couldn't see past my on eyes
Ab Past my eyes
Bbm Past my eyes
Ab Past my eyes
Chorus:
Db Right before my eyes
Ab I saw the whole world lose control
Bbm The whole world lost control
GbAb Before my eyes uh-huh
Db I fell through the floor
Ab I couldn't take this anymore
Bbm I can't take this anymore
GbAb It breaks my mind uh-huh
