It's taken so long - so long to be
Am
Measure the man - I hoped I would be
C             F         C                F
I take a step forward - I take two steps back
C                   F       C                 F
I can't help but be bored - unless I'm on the attack

We were up on the hill - where the blueberries grow
Am
With time to kill - I started to fall
C                  F                    C       F   
And it got hard to breathe - And it got hard to relax
C                F                        C            F
Hard to face yourself - when you're still busy looking back
G                 C
And attacking's alright

I met a blonde girl - she took me into her bed
Am
I wanted her body - she wanted me dead
C                Am        C              Am
On a cool summer evening - I awoke from a dream
C         Am                  C          Am
Scared of something that was - inside of me
