White-Knuckles

Dm

[Verse]

     F
It's time to white knuckle this shit
F                                           Dm
Make friends with these demons and just get on with it
         Bb                C
Nothin's changed and never will,
F
Our mother will give to me, there is no striving need
       Bb         C
for compassion in story form
Bb                  C
All the beggars and all the whores
    Bb             C               Dm
And please leave a little more for me
     Bb             C
Yeah please leave a little left for...

[Chorus]

F Dm            Bb
I walked in the wild for you
     F                            C
Past every wicked sea, the deadly desert through
F       Dm      Bb
Keep me running clean
Dm               C       Dm
Or at least just keep me running
Bb               C       F
Or at least just keep me running

[Verse]

        F
I don't want be the clay in your flames anymore
        F
I don't wanna be the stone, what's the polishing for
C                 Bb
When it burns down to the foundation
C              Dm                     Bb            C
You'll see the strength beneath these broken fading questions, and
F                                                           Dm      
This discontent disease is crying out for more and more and more and
          C               Bb
 more and more and more always
Dm                C
More and more and more and more and

[Chorus]

F Dm            Bb
I walked in the wild for you
     F                            C
Past every temptation, the deadly desert through
F       Dm      Bb
Keep me running clean
Dm               C       Dm
Or at least just keep me running
Bb               C       F     G  F Dm C Bb
Or at least just keep me running- - -

         Bb                C
Nothin changed and never will.
