intro: G - C - Em - D

Em        C    G           D
All of my life I've been a fool
Em          C      G           D
Breaking myself to follow your rules
      Em          C          G              D
And I beat myself up, when I can't find the strength
      Em            C           G        D
And I can't seem to change, the harder I think


       C        G
Let me get this straight
                C                     G
Let me feel the weight of an ordinary day
            C        D         Em
'Cause I've tried to heal this thing
                    D    D
But you let me slip away


Em     C        G           D
When I run away just let me run
Em                C          G         D
And I take it too far by the time I am done
    Em      C        G            D
And I understand I'm thick in the skull
        Em          C        G             D
But I'm learning to love the sound of your call


       C        G
Let me get this straight
                C                     G
Let me feel the weight of an ordinary day
            C        D         Em
'Cause I've tried to heal this thing
                    D
But you let me slip away


G      C               Em      D
I feel rejection and I up my defenses
G          C              Em    D
I look for healing in the human touch
G           C                 Em   D
When will I learn to face the consequences
   G         C            Em         D
Of trying to love you and failing so much
    G         C            Em         D
I'm trying to love you and failing so much


       C        G
Let me get this straight
                C                     G
Let me feel the weight of an ordinary day
            C        D         Em
'Cause I've tried to heal this thing
        C           D
But you let me slip away

            G     C
Let me slip away, oooh

Em       C        G    D
Over and over and over again
Em         C           G          D
Biting the hand that's pulling me in
Em       C        G    D
Over and over and over again
Em           C            G          D
Believing the hand that's pulling me in
