Em C G   Em G G

[Verse 1]

Em                     G
  Taught to fear my God
Em          C              G
  Then that fear became a cancer
        Em           G
  And I take medicine
         Em         G
  To destroy the sin
         Em          G                  D
  But I know, in the end it's killing me

[Verse 2]

Em             C                G
  I watched my family fall apart
Em             C              G
  My father's liquor was his crutch
         Em                G
  But he still taught me well
            Em             G
  That this world, it is a Hell
                Em            G        D
  And we're all damned to the hell of living

[Chorus]
 
         Em          G
  With my heart in my hands
       Em     G
  I am ready again
         Em      G      D
  I am a broken man, I am
             Em         G
  'Cause I've come to accept
           Em             G
  That the blood that you bled
        Em       G                     D
 It was bled and sent for the likes of me

[Verse 3]

Em                              G
  Should I work myself to death?
Em            C             G
  Who gives a damn about my rest
           Em          G       Em              G
  And I'll leave the divine to better men than I
             Em             G           D
  I'll just take what I can find anymore

[Verse 4]

Em              C               G
  So I left you knocking at the door
Em             C           G
  I just don't feel it anymore
           Em     G             Em            G
  The only fire I feel has been burning at my heels
           Em
  And it's real
         G                D
  I feel like I've been sinking

[Chorus]

          Em          G
  With my heart in my hands
       Em     G
  I am ready again
         Em      G      D
  I am a broken man, I am
             Em         G
  'Cause I've come to accept
           Em             G
  That the blood that you bled
        Em       G                     D
 It was bled and sent for the likes of me
