Thirty

G
And I've tried all the different angles
                        D
I've tried every fucking frame
Em
Still this shitshow somehow manages
C
To always look the same
G
And I've tried burning all the bridges
                        D
I brought fire to the flame
Em
And I'd burn every goddamn memory
C
To illuminate this place
G                               D
Cause it's too dark for me to shine
Em                      D                  C
It's always darkest before tonight


[Refrain]
G                               D
Thought I was home when I was not
Em                              C
Well, I guess this is what Mark meant back then when he sang 'bout growing up
G                               D
I thought the best was yet to come
Em                                      C
And I've been waiting for so long that I grew old instead of up
G                               D
And it's been thirty years right now
Em              D               C
I can't believe how wrong this sounds


[Verse]
G
And I've tried all the different tactics
                        D
I have caught myself off guard
Em
I made peace with all my enemies
C
And reached out to those I love
G
For so long I fought a battle
                        D
That I forgot the reason why
Em
Can't remember what it used to be
C
But the fire looks quite nice
G                               D
Cause it's too dark for me to shine
Em                      D                  C
It's always darkest before tonight


[Refrain]
G                               D

Em                              C

I can't believe how wrong this sounds


G              D
Is it over now
Em        D     C
Is it over now

[Outro]
Em                             D
Thought I was home when I was not
Em
Well, I guess this is what Mark meant back then
C
When he sang 'bout growing up
Em                             D

Em
And I've been waiting for so long
C
That I grew old instead of up
Em
It's over now
