G - D - C - Cmaj7
G D
You built it up brick by brick
C Cmaj7
Put your heart into this baseless myth
G D
Nurtured it like a child
Am Cmaj7
And dressed its wounds when it ran wild
G D
You stopped to fix your face
C Cmaj7
Someone else stepped in and took your place
G D
Now everything you once knew
Am Cmaj7
Is running circles around you
Bm C
A car door slamming in your road
D Am7
It jolts you like a kick inside
Bm C
A year old message on your phone
D C
That catches you when you can’t hide
C Cmaj7
I see you in the service station sign
D Em Cmaj7
I see you in the supermarket line
C Cmaj7
I see you silhouetted on a wall
D Em D Cmaj7
But I don't see myself there at all
G D
This vessel of Balsa wood
C Cmaj7
Is the fag end tail of amoeba-hood
G D
The busying cast confer
C Cmaj7
And get their taste of the drama
Bm C
You stare through mindless daytime shows
D Am7
And curse yourself for growing old
Bm C
The sterile scent of shaving foam
D C
Reminds you of another world
C Cmaj7
I see you in the roofless sombre sky
D Em Cmaj7
I see you when the lovers stop outside
C Cmaj7
I see you silhouetted on a wall
D Em D
But I don't see myself there at all
C Cmaj7
I see you in the sweetness of our child
D Em Cmaj7
I see you in the supermarket aisle
C Cmaj7
I see you when I’m kneeling on the floor
D Em D Cmaj7
But I can't see myself anymore
G - D - C - Cmaj7
G - D - C - D - Cmaj7
Em C G D
Hard times got the upper hand, stole our feeble plans
Em C G C
The faces, shot me, spin me round , but I won’t lie down
Em C G D
Hard times shake me to the bone, face bruised, bloody nose
Em C G C
Shell shocked, crawling on the ground, still I won’t lie down
Em C G D
No I won't lie down
Em C G C
No I won't lie down
D C G
I won't lie down
