INTRO: D A D A E E (x3)
A E D A
Well it cuts just like as knife Takes away your love of life
A E D D
Puts out your fire and leaves you in the ashes
A E D A
And you lay there in the hole What you loved now leaves you cold
A E D D
It’s hard to get the strength to face the morning
F# D A E
Some days you really feel like hiding
F# D A E
Some days you swear you’ll never go out anymore
CHORUS:
D A
And I’m not going back
D A E E
I’m not going back to my dark places
D A
I’m not going back
D A E E
I’m not going back to my dark places
VERSE 2: (same chords as first)
Well the days drag slowly by All you want to do is cry
Nothing makes sense nothing has a reason
And the world is not the same And you’re the one to blame
Before too long you feel just like a prisoner
Some days you really feel like screaming
Some days you swear you’ll never smile anymore
REPEAT CHORUS:
BREAK:
G D G D
It’s something they can’t see yet it seems so real to me
G D A A
Can’t explain just how I feel when what I feel is no emotion
G D G D
It’s not a tragedy, yet that’s how it seems to me
G D A A
I wish that you could see or even for one minute be me
REPEAT INTRO x2
VERSE 3 (same chords as first)
Well, I got there in the end With the help of many friends
Some who helped by simply just believing
And the days look brighter now Yet I know someday, somehow
I could end up back there in an instant
Some days I really feel like laughing
Some days I realize I must stay on my guard
REPEAT CHORUS:
