[Verse]
Em                            C                Bm
Tattoos on my arms have faded through the years
Em                                  C             Bm
The cross inked on my back to drive away the fears
D
There’s a hard pain in my gut
           A
Some hate of I don’t know what
D
Pistol hidden under my pillow
          A                        Em
And a stranger stares at me in the mirror

Em                             C         Bm
If i had the nerve I’d see the light today
Em                                      C           Bm
I don’t think I can take the games that people play
D
There’s a voice screaming in my ear
             A
Saying everything I can’t stand to hear
D
A permanent scar in my head
             A                    Em
And a stranger stares a me in the mirror


[Chorus]
C                                 Em
If i could I destroy everyone and lay down with my loaded gun
D                        C
      I believe I’d be embraced
C                                 Em
I’d rather live in my own bed and put that bullet through my head
D                                        C
          It’s the only thing that I can Face
Em                                 C         Bm
I’ve got a certain power you can’t understand
Em                               C           Bm
I rip apart my soul and show the worst of man
D
Some coldness in my heart
       A
And my thoughts turn to the dark
D
My hated turns to fear
      A                            Em
And a stranger stares at me in the mirror


[Chorus]
C                                 Em
If i could I destroy everyone and lay down with my loaded gun
D                        C
      I believe I’d be embraced
C                                 Em
I’d rather live in my own bed and put that bullet through my head
D                                        C
          It’s the only thing that I can Face
