Capo: 2nd fret

[Intro]

G Bm D A
(x2)

[Verse 1: Brian Burkheiser]
G
If you had it all would it be enough?
D F#m
Can you find your way and still be lost?
G
I write songs about being someone else
D F#m
That say “fuck the world” but not “I need help”

[Pre-Chorus: Brian Burkheiser]
G
Yeah, everybody tells me it’s alright
Bm
Everybody tells me I’ll be fine
D
Everything is not o-fucking-kay
F#m
Oh, but they can’t tell me why
G
I put the picture on the shelf
Bm
Leave the memory behind
D F#m
But the truth is I can’t say goodbye

[Chorus: Brian Burkheiser]
G
So I made friends with all my demons
Bm
Let ’em sink their teeth in
D A
Got usеd to the feeling of letting it go
G
So give mе something to believe in
Bm
Or throw me in the deep end
D A
It all feels the same with your eyes closed

So you can throw me in the
G
Deep end (Deep)
Bm
Deep end (Deep end)
D
Deep end (Deep)
A
Deep end

[Verse 2: Eric Vanlerberghe, Both]
G Bm
On the same old path again from

where I’m at to where I’ve been
D
I’d drift away and you’d pull me in
F#m
But the waves are deep and I’m wearing thin, yeah
G
I caught myself in a lie
Bm
Guess I’m just calling to say you were right
D
I carry the weight of the world in my head
F#m
And it keeps me up at night

[Pre-Chorus: Eric Vanlerberghe, Brian Burkheiser]
G
And everybody tells me it’s alright (Alright)
Bm
Everybody tells me I’ll be fine (Fine)
D
Everything is not o-fucking-kay
F#m
Out of all the times that I’ve tried
G
I find the air is thin and I’m against the wind
Bm
With each mountain left that I climb
D F#m
But the truth is I can’t say goodbye

[Chorus: Brian Burkheiser]
G
So I made friends with all my demons
Bm
Let ’em sink their teeth in
D A
Got usеd to the feeling of letting it go
G
So give mе something to believe in
Bm
Or throw me in the deep end
D A
It all feels the same with your eyes closed

So you can throw me in the
G
Deep end (Deep)
Bm
Deep end (Deep end)
D
Deep end (Deep)
A
Deep end

[Verse 3: Brian Burkheiser]

‘Cause everything is changin’
Bm
Memories are fadin’
D
Tell me that I’m fucked up
A
I wanna hear you say it (Say it)
G
All my fears are
Bm
Slowly rearranging
D
Pushed them all aside but
A
I can feel them waitin’
G
‘Cause everything is changin’
Bm
Memories are fadin’
D
Tell me that I’m fucked up
A
I wanna hear you say it (Say it)
G
All my fears are
