Am                       C
You're simply saying everything if you will
       G                                Am C
Take a pen and write my name on a friend
            G
Who never cared to let me in
Am               C
And take a vast revine that for
G         
Three years swimmin' straight upstream
         Am              C
And the wind...the wind won't drag me down the end

Am         C   
You live inside my wall and I
     G                                            Am C
I reach back, hit you harder than God falls
         G
Christ, Amen, Amen, Amen
 Am            C                G                
You're such a line to break and I
                                                                               Am      C
I'm so scared to make another mistake in the end

       G                   D    Am
But I just wanna be happy again Oh!
              C   
Until it all falls down
                       D
And where does that leave me?
        G                                        D
Well, things, things, I've got so many things to say
              C                    D   
And with a broken heart, and a straight face
             (D)  Ring
I'm sayin' Brother, help me

Am             C
It's just a natural phase that I
   G
I go through and then it's taken away
          Am        C    G
And then BAM! BAM! I'm fixed
                   Am                      C
Yeah, and I'm in another place to be where I
    G
I can't sleep without the thought of me being so
Am     C         G
So damned sick

           D                    Am
Take this song, take this song away
          C
Until it all falls down
                          D    
And where does that leave me?
         G                                        D
Well, things, things, I've got so many things to say
             C                           D
And with a broken heart and a straight face
                           G
And he says Reach for the girl
                                  D   
Reach for the girl and hold her close
                  C             
Believe you can shine when you're silver
                    D
And I promise you gold; I promise you gold
                      G
And whenever you're dark inside
           D
Don't let go; no, don't let go
                               C                                                               D
Remember there's rain and there's candy and Christmasy winter snow
                G 
And remember I love you the same

And I'll strangle your pain
         D
And he tells me to sing

and I sing, and I sing
           C      Hold
For my brother who keeps me sane
                 D     Hold          G D C G D
And tells me everything will be OK. 

(D)          G                 D
Oh, I'm so alone God, I'm so alone
         C              G
I'm so alone I'm alone Yeah!
