INTRO: D A D A E E (x3)
[A]Well it cuts just like as [E]knife Ta[D]kes away your love of l[A]ife
[A]Puts out your fire and l[E]eaves you in the a[D]shes[D]
[A]And you lay there in the [E]hole Wha[D]t you loved now leaves you [A]cold
[A]It's hard to get the str[E]ength to face the mor[D]ning[D]
[F#]Some days you r[D]eally feel like hi[A]ding[E]
[F#]Some days you [D]swear you'll never [A]go out anymore[E]
CHORUS:
And I'[D]m not going [A]back
I'm no[D]t going b[A]ack to my dark[E] places[E]
I'm no[D]t going b[A]ack
I'm no[D]t going b[A]ack to my dark[E] places[E]
VERSE 2: (same chords as first)
Well the days drag slowly by All you want to do is cry
Nothing makes sense nothing has a reason
And the world is not the same And you're the one to blame
Before too long you feel just like a prisoner
Some days you really feel like screaming
Some days you swear you'll never smile anymore
REPEAT CHORUS:
BREAK:
It's [G]something th[D]ey can't see y[G]et it seems so [D]real to me
Can't[G] explain jus[D]t how I feel w[A]hen what I feel[A] is no emotion
It's[G] not a traged[D]y, yet th[G]at's how it see[D]ms to me
I wi[G]sh that you c[D]ould see or[A] even for one minute [A]be me
REPEAT INTRO x2
VERSE 3 (same chords as first)
Well, I got there in the end With the help of many friends
Some who helped by simply just believing
And the days look brighter now Yet I know someday, somehow
I could end up back there in an instant
Some days I really feel like laughing
Some days I realize I must stay on my guard
