| Em | |
| It took me everything I had |
| Am | |
| To give all that I | could |
| Walk beside me while I sleep |
| Em | |
| Steer me from the slumber | wolf |
| Tangled forest of the mind |
| Am | |
| Speaks to me of self- | despise |
| Close the window through the pane |
| B7 | |
| Hear the siren's s | erenade... |
| Verse 2 |
| Em | |
| Could have been the comeback kid |
| Am | |
| The southpaws' legend glove to | fill |

| Now this punch drunk grinning soul |
| Am | D | G | |
| In its' corner begs 'n | o more' |
| Chorus |

| Verse 3 |
| Em | |
| The chamber echo never speaks |
| Am | |
| The rushin' tide devours my | feet |
| No global warming fills this soul |
| B7 | |
| For hell it freezes what it | stole |
| From the beggar's empty plate |
| Am | D | G | |
| To our world that stuffs its | ' face |
| Chorus |

| Am | D | |
| While the paint never | dries |
