[Verse]
C      D      Am   
I hurt myself today
C         D       Am  
To see if I still feel
C       D      Am  
I focus on the pain
C        D            Am  
The only thing that's real
C          D       Am  
The needle tears a hole
C       D        Am   
The old familiar sting
       C       D     Am  
Try to kill it ■ all away
      C        D          G
But I remember everything ■
Am7         F     
What have I become
C             G     
■ My sweetest friend
Am7        F   
Everyone I know
     C           G  
Goes away in the end


[Chorus]
Am      Am7           F  
And you could have it all
G                
My empire of dirt
Am   Am7          F   
■  I will let you down
G                 Am  
■ I will make you hurt


[Inst]
C D Am C D Am

[Verse]
  C         D        Am    
I wear this crown of thorns
C       D      Am   
Upon my liar's chair
C       D      Am      
Full of broken thoughts
C   D      Am    
■ I cannot repair
C           D         Am  
Beneath the stains of time
C            D         Am
The feelings disappear ■ 
C       D       Am  
You are someone else
C      D           G   
■ I am still right here
Am7               
What have I become
C             G     
■ My sweetest friend
Am7            
Everyone I know
F    C           G  
Goes away in the end


[Chorus]
    Am7               F  
And you could have it all
G                
My empire of dirt
Am7            F   
I will let you down
G                   
I will make you hurt
Am7              F    
If I could start again
  G                 
A million miles away
Am7         F     
I will keep myself


[End]
G                 
I would find a way
