[Chorus]
Fmaj7                 C                   G      
   I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend
         Fmaj7          C                   G 
You could cut ties with all the lies that you've been living in
   Fmaj7       C               G 
And if you do not want to see me again
               Fmaj7  C   G  
I would understand
               Fmaj7  C   G  
I would understand

[Verse]
    Am                         
The angry boy a bit too insane,
C
Icing over a secret pain,
G
  You know you don't belong
            Am
You're the first to fight

You're way too loud
             C
You're the flash of light on a burial shroud
G
  I know something's wrong

[Pre-Chorus]
     Am                        D11         C 
Well everyone I know has got a reason, to say "put the past away"

[Chorus]
Fmaj7                 C                   G      
   I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend
         Fmaj7          C                   G 
You could cut ties with all the lies that you've been living in
   Fmaj7       C               G 
And if you do not want to see me again
               Fmaj7  C   G  
I would understand
               Fmaj7  C   G  
I would understand

[Verse]
          Am
Well he's on the table and he's gone to code
       C
And I do not think anyone knows
       G
What they're doing here
            Am
And your friends have left you

You've been dismissed
C
I never thought it would come to this
      G
And I, I want you to know

[Pre-Chorus]
Am                               D11
Everyone's got to face down the demons
         C
Maybe today

You could put the past away

[Chorus]
Fmaj7                 C                   G      
   I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend
         Fmaj7          C                   G 
You could cut ties with all the lies that you've been living in
   Fmaj7       C               G 
And if you do not want to see me again
               Fmaj7  C   G  
I would understand
               Fmaj7  C   G  
I would understand
               Fmaj7  C   G  
I would understand

[Outro]
Fmaj7                 C                   G      
   I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend

(I would understand)
Fmaj7                 C                   G

(I would understand)
Fmaj7                 C                   G      
   I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend
