Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]It's a game
Baby, it's just [G]a game
And [Gsus4]nobody lo[G]ses when you
[D]learn to love the one
[Bm]Who finally wins[C] somet[G]imes[Gsus4]
[G]You'll [D]be wrong
'Cause sometimes, we get it [G]wrong
But [Gsus4]nobody le[G]aves here al[D]ive
And nothin' holy [Bm]comes
[C]from bein' [G]right[Gsus4]
[G]So don't

[Verse 2]
[Bm]hold your breath like [A]that
Baby, let [G]it go[Gsus4]
[G]You're gonna [Bm]feel it in your back
[A]Believe me, I oughta kno[C]w

[Verse 3]
You're a stone [D]wall
In a world full of rub[A]ber bands
You're a [Bm]pil lar of belief
[A]Still bitin' your shakin'[G] hands
Folks are gonna lean [D]on you
And leave when [A]the cracks appear
But, darlin', I'll [Bm]be here
[A]I'll be the[G] last
You're my [Gm]letter to the past
[D][C][G]

[Verse 4]
[D]You can cry
You know it's always okay to [G]cry
You [Gsus4]don't even need
[G]to know [D]why
But don't you ever [Bm]feel [C]alone in[G]side
If you [Bm]need to know the truth
[A]I still haven't got a c[G]lue
If the [Bm]blind can lead the blind
[A]Then, baby, I'm just [C]like you

[Verse 5]
You're a stone [D]wall
In a world full of [A]rubber bands
You're a [Bm]pil lar of belief
[A]Still fightin' your empty han[G]ds
Folks are gonna lean [D]on you
And leave when the [A]cracks appear
But, darlin', I'll be [Bm]here
[A]I'll be the[G] last
You're my [Gm]letter to the past
[Bm][A][G][Bm][A]

[Verse 6]
[C]
You're a stone [D]wall
In a world full of rub[A]ber bands
You're a [Bm]pil lar of belief
[A]Still hidin' you[G]r empty hands
Folks are gonna lean [D]on you
And leave when [A]the cracks appear
[F#]Darlin', I will [Bm]be here
[A]I'll be the las[E]t
You're my letter to [G]the pas[Gm]t
[D][C][G][D][C]
[G]

[Verse 7]
[D]
It's a game
You know it's okay to lose
[G]a game
But always remember your [D]name
And have no shame
[Bm]Becaus[C]e you're built to la[G]st
