Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]The places I remember are getting
worn and withered
My [D]heart's the picket fences
and needs a little mending
[Csus2]am I not [D]eve[Csus2]rything[D]
[Csus2]you thought I should [D]be?

[Verse 2]
The [G]faces in the picture are burnt
just like the real ones
Our [D]skin is the exposure it's
gotten so much older
But [C]am I not everything you
thought I [D]should be?

[Verse 3]
This [Am]life long competition
still [C]reeks of repetition
I've [G]failed at everything I tried [D]to do
my life plays in front of [Am]you
And now I've realized there's
[Bm]nothing left for me to hide
I've [C]opened myself enough for
[G]the world to see my [D]guts

[Verse 4]
[G]Where are you [D]now? and [F]where
have you [Em]been?[F][C]
[G]Everything and everyone,
[D]Everything and everyone
[F]Must come to an [C]end[D]

[Verse 5]
The [G]children in the school yard
have grown so cold and tired
The [D]shift is almost over I'm
praying I don't get fired
[Csus2]Life isn't everything
I thought it [D]should be

[Verse 6]
The [G]bills left on the table will be
payed if I was able to
[D]Work a few more hours,
my life has grown so sour
Be[C]cause [Csus2]I'm not every[C]thing
I thought [D]I could be

[Verse 7]
This [Am]life long competition
still [C]reeks of repetition
I've [G]failed at everything I tried [D]to do
my life plays in front of [Am]you
And now I've realized there's [Bm]nothing
left for me to hide
[C]I've opened myself enough
for [G]the world to see my [D]guts
[G]

[Verse 8]
Where are you [D]now? and [F]where
have you [Em]been?[F][C]
[G]Everything and everyone,
[D]Everything and everyone
[F]Must come to an [C]end[D]

[Verse 9]
The [G]places I remember are getting
worn and withered
My [D]heart's the picket fences
and needs a little mending
am I [G]not [Csus2]everything you thought [D]I should be?
