Tuning: Capo on 5th
VERSE 1:
I was [Bm]born in that summer when the [G]sun didn't shine
I was gi[D]ven a name that doesn't [F#m]feel like it's mine
Lived my [Bm]life as the good boy I was [G]told I should be
Prayed every [D]night to a religion that was [F#m]chosen for me
PRE-CHORUS:
[Bm]Sold my soul, broke my bones, [G]Tell me, what did I get?
[D]Did my time, toed the line, [F#m]Ain't seen anything yet
[Bm]Strike me down to the ground, [G]You know I've seen it before
[D]Make it hurt, I'll eat the dirt, [F#m]I just don't care anymore
CHORUS:
[Bm]How could you break my heart?[G] Already played my part
[D]I kept my promise man,[F#m] Show me the promiseland
[Bm]Don't occupy my throne,[G] Give me the crown I own
[D]Lived like you told me how[F#m], Look at me now
I've got no [G]money in my pocket
And the [F#]whole world's bringing me down
[Bm] [D] [G]
And the [F#]whole world's bringing me down.
[Bm] [D] [G] [F#]
VERSE 2:
[Bm]One person's lie is just a[G]nother man's truth
We got done [D]running from the devil, but th[F#m]e devil was you
Every [Bm]time I see the light, I'm falling [G]deeper in debt
If I've [D]never seen the good, how can it [F#m]come to an end?
PRE-CHORUS:
[Bm]Sold my soul, broke my bones, [G]Tell me, what did I get?
[D]Did my time, toed the line, [F#m]Ain't seen anything yet
[Bm]Strike me down to the ground, [G]You know I've seen it before
[D]Make it hurt, I'll eat the dirt, [F#m]I just don't care anymore
CHORUS:
[Bm]How could you break my heart?[G] Already played my part
[D]I kept my promise man,[F#m] Show me the promiseland
[Bm]Don't occupy my throne,[G] Give me the crown I own
[D]Lived like you told me how[F#m], Look at me now
I've got no [G]money in my pocket
And the [F#]whole world's bringing me down
[Bm] [D] [G]
And the [F#]whole world's bringing me down
[Bm] [D] [G]
And the [F#]whole world's bring me down
[Bm]How could you break my heart?[G] Already played my part
[D]I kept my promise man,[F#m] Show me the promiseland
[Bm]Don't occupy my throne,[G] Give me the crown I own
