Standard tuning
I would use a capo if you're playing regular chords, but obviously it's not needed if you're using
the barre chords, which I prefer
Chords (low e to high e)
I mute the low e on all the chords but it's optional
Also, you can play the regular chords but it sounds better with these:
Am 5 7 7 5 5 5
C 8 10 10 9 8 8
Em x 7 9 9 8 7
G 10 12 12 11 10 10
Bm 7 9 9 7 7 7
Intro:
Am C Em G x2
(no guitar)
Just take it all
G Bm
My heart, my mind, my every word from out of my lungs
C
My every breath and every thought
Em
And every word I've ever sung
G
And though I'm glad to help you out
Bm
And get your feet back on the ground
C
Please understand I'm just a man
You understand?
Em
I'm just a man
G
And I feel helpless when I stumble
Bm C (Em)
And my anxiety escapes
G
I lose all hope
Bm
And I'm afraid that once again
C
I've lost my place
Am C
I give it all
Em
and when I fall
G
I get up and give some more
Am C Em
Until there's nothing left of me
G
just some bones stacked on the floor
G
But every song's a two way street
Bm
I give to you, you give to me
C
And as long as that remains
Em
I will still haul my heavy feet
G
Because you're all worth every word
Bm
And yeah you're all here in my heart
C
And I know we can sing together
Em
To avoid falling apart
Am C
I give it all
Em
and when I fall
G
I get up and give some more
Am C Em
Until there's nothing left of me
G
just some bones stacked on the floor x2
Am
At the end of everything
Am Bm C Am
This is for you, this is for me
Am
Your fight to overcome defeat
Am
Has set the skies alight for me

just some bones stacked on the floor

just some bones stacked on the floor (until end)
