Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Em]

[Verse 1]
[Em]Look at this, it's me,
[F#sus4]walking aw[Em]ay[G]
[D]Look at you drowning, [C]on display
[Em]Every time I've dropped by,
I've tried to say
The water is [D]rising
[Em]You don't wanna stay[Am]

[Verse 2]
It's that [Em]sinking feeling
You know what it's bringing on
[D]You [C]might as well say it
I [Em]see it, I feel it
This town is going [D]wrong
It's [C]turning [Am]away

[Verse 3]
You [G]wanted me [F]to be someone
that [C]I could never be
[G]My new friends are of[F]fering
[C]things I've never dreamed
It's [G]beautiful
I'd [F]like for them to [C]take me on

[Verse 4]
[Bb]The [Am]track[Em]- mall gang went off
On the Tennessee goth
A lunar [D]moth, you [C]chrysalis and flail
[Em]The water is rising, you try to rappel
A [D]rousing cheer for the
[Em]boy in t[Am]he well

[Verse 5]
It's that [Em]sinking feeling
You know what it's bringing [D]on
You [C]might as well say it
I [Em]see it, I feel it
This town is going [D]wrong
It's [C]turning [Am]away

[Verse 6]
You [G]wanted me to be [F]someone
that [C]I could never be
[G]My new friends are of[F]fering
[C]things I've never dreamed
It's [G]beautiful
I'd [F]like for them to [C]take me [Bb]on
[Am]

[D][C][D][C]
[Bb][Am]

[Verse 7]
[Em]Here is where I look back
Here is where you fell
[D]This is where I got up
[C]Shaking off my tail
[Em]This is where your rope trick
Started to look stale
A [D]greyhound [Em]pass for
the boy in the [Am]well

[Verse 8]
It's that [Em]sinking feeling
You know what it's bringing [D]on
I [C]might as well say it
I [Em]see it, I feel it
This town is going [D]wrong
It's [C]turning [Am]away

[Verse 9]
You [G]wanted me to be [F]someone
that [C]I could never be
[G]My new friends are of[F]fering
[C]things I've never dreamed
It's [G]beautiful
I'd [F]like for them to [C]take me on
[Bb]

[Verse 10]
[Am]
You [G]wanted me to be [F]someone
that [C]I could never be
[G]My new friends are of[F]fering
[C]things I've never dreamed
It's [G]beautiful
I'd [F]like for them to [C]take me on
