[Intro] D Em D Em

[Verse 1]
D     
Sam, the weak accomplice
Em
He knew he had a choice
D
He always startled easily
Em
With the sound of every voice

D
A pocket full of excess
Em
They take and take and take
D
Left him with a trigger pointed
Em
Staring at his shakes

D
And it goes on
Em
And it goes on

[Verse 2]
D
She was given nothing
Em
But their selfish lack
D
They sleep with one eye open
Em
Cause they know she's coming back

D
But she will wait her turn
Em
Absent from concern
D
The furnace inside her
Em
It burns and burns and burns

D
And it goes on
Em
And it goes on

[Chorus]
Em                   D
Weaklings never practice
           Am
What they preach
                  C
They cower down below
                        Em     
That's what you call defeat
                       D   
And in their darkest hour
              Am                 
It's hard to breathe
                             C          
We try to catch up with the world
                            Em       
But we're so far out of reach
                       D          Em
We're so far out of reach

[Verse 3]
D
Leaning in the dark
Em
Stands this faked man
D
Slicing her with is words
Em
Always grabbing her with his hands

D
And it goes on
Em
And it goes on

Em                   D
Weaklings never practice
           Am
What they preach
                  C
They cower down below
                        Em     
That's what you call defeat
                       D   
And in their darkest hour
              Am                 
It's hard to breathe
                             C          
We try to catch up with the world
                                   
But we're so far out of reach

[Bridge] Em D Am C(x2)

[Verse 4]
D
I wish I had warned you
Em
Of this broken path
D
With each step you take
Em
You know there's no turning back

[Chorus]
Em                   D
Weaklings never practice
           Am
What they preach
                  C
They cower down below
                        Em     
That's what you call defeat
                       D   
And in their darkest hour
              Am                 
It's hard to breathe
                             C          
We try to catch up with the world
                            Em       
But we're so far out of reach
                             D
We try to catch up with the world
                             Am
We try to catch up with the world
                             C
We try to catch up with the world
                           Em
But we're so far out of reach
                             D
We try to catch up with the world
                             Am
We try to catch up with the world
                             C
We try to catch up with the world
                           Em  Let it ring
But we're so far out of reach
