Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][Bm][A][G][Bm][G][A][G][Bm][G][A][G]

[Verse 1]
[D]Staring at trophies in milk crates
On the [G]floor of a northeastern
garage
[D]Wondering how it's all such a blessing
And [G]why it's all so damn hard

[Verse 2]
It's the [D]Massachusetts Turnpike
And when I [G]get home,
I'll creep down the hall
[D]Snow in the headlights,
they call it a dream
But the [G]world's flat and I'm falling off

[Verse 3]
[Em]Hold your arms out, ju[G]mp,
hell, at least you tried
[Em]I fall short, I al[G]ways fall behind
I [Bm]hate [G]letting [A]people [G]down
I [Bm]hate letting [A]people [G]down
I [Bm]hate [G]letting [A]people down
[G]and I do it all the time
[D]

[Verse 4]
[D]I never wanted to hurt you
But I'm [G]elbows deep in that dirt
[D]I still count every unplanted seed
I write [G]down every unspoken word

[Verse 5]
[Em]Hold your arms out, God [G]help the justified
[Em]I fall short, I al[G]ways fall behind
I [Bm]hate [G]letting [A]people [G]down
I [Bm]hate [G]letting [A]people [G]down
I [Bm]hate letting [A]people [G]down and
I do it all the time
[D]

[Verse 6]
You get [Bm]up for work every day
You [A]drag yourself right out of bed
The [Em]arms of those angels
Are [G]wrapped around the dreams you left
I [Bm]look the other way
[A]pretending not to notice
I [Em]don't know how it died
But I [G]know where the ghost is

[Verse 7]
I [Bm]hate letting [A]people [G]down
I [Bm]hate letting [A]people [G]down
I [Bm]hate letting [A]people [G]down but
I do it all [Bm]the time[G][A]
[G]I'm sorry, I hat[Bm]e let[G]ting peo[A]ple down
[G]I'm sorry, I hat[Bm]e letting peo[A]ple
[G]down and I do it all the time
