(Verse 1)
E
I watched the proverbial sunrise
A
coming up over the Pacific and
C#m
you might think I'm losing my mind,
B2
but I will shy away from the specifics...
A2 B2 C#m
'cause I don't want you to know where I am
A2 B2
'cause then you'll see my heart
C#m
in the saddest state it's ever been.
A2 B2
This is no place to try and live my life.
{Pre-Chorus}
E B2 B/D#
Stop right there. That's exactly where I lost it.
A2 C#m B2
See that line. Well I never should have crossed it.
E B2 B/D#
Stop right there. Well I never should have said
A/G# A2
that it's the very moment that
B2
I wish that I could take back.
E B2 C#m
I'm sorry for the person I became.
B2 E
I'm sorry that it took so long for me to change.
B2 C#m
I'm ready to try and never become that way again
A2
'cause who I am hates who I've been.
B2
Who I am hates who I've been.
(Verse 2)
E
I talk to absolutely no one.
A2
Couldn't keep to myself enough.
C#m
And the things bottled inside have finally begun
B2
to create so much pressure that I'll soon blow up.
E
I heard the reverberating footsteps
A2
sinking up to the beating of my heart,
C#m B2
and I was positive that unless I got myself together,
I would watch me fall apart.
A2 B2 C#m
And I can't let that happen again
A2 B2
'cause then you'll see my heart
C#m
in the saddest state it's ever been.
A B2
This is no place to try and live my life.
{Pre-Chorus x2}
E/G# A2 B2
Who I am hates who I've been
B2 C#m
and who I am won't take the second chance you gave me.
A2 E
Who I am hates who I've been
B2
'cause who I've been only ever made me...
E B2 C#m
So sorry for the person I became.
B2E
So sorry that it took so long for me to change.
B2 C#m
I'm ready to try and never become that way again
A2
'cause who I am hates who I've been.
B2
Who I am hates who I've been.
