D
From the scrapes and bruises
Bm              D/G
To the familiar abuses
                D                  Em           G
I'll kick and scream but it never changes anything

I could spill my guts out
Wearing my best little girl pout
And I almost missed it
But nobody said that this was gonna be easy

                D
This is not the man I hoped to be
And I'm just trying to stop the bleeding
Bm
I don't know how to word it
I just started to deserve it
        D/G                     A
And all my, all my faces are alibis
        D
And me, I'm half the man I wanted to be

D
Most times it all comes out wrong
Bm                              D/G
I don't know the words but I'll hum along
                D               Em
There's nothing familiar here anymore
        Bm      G                  D
to anyone or anything left to feel alive

And I still taste that sickness
And it makes me crazy without it at best
But I'm in the same place I used to be
But I'm trying harder not to be

This is not the man I hoped to be
And I'm just trying to stop the bleeding
I don't know how to word it
I just started to deserve it
And all my, all my faces are alibis
And me, I'm half the man I wanted to be

G |-----------12-|
D |--14--12------|

E5              G5
So what am I? What am I? So what am I?

And all my, all my faces are alibis
This is not the man I hoped to be
And I'm just trying to stop the bleeding
I don't know how the words go
I just started not to say no

Don't want it, Don't get it
I know you won't regret it
Don't surface, Don't surface
And I feel so damned worthless
Another day is gone and all my faces are alibis
all my faces are alibies

and me, I'm half the man I wanted to be
