Verse 1

[Em] [D]

Sometimes life it takes you by the hand

[C] [D]

It puts you down before you know it

[G] [D]

It's gone and you're dead again

[Em] [D]

I've been in places and I won't pretend

[C] [D]

That I make it I just

[G] [D] [Em]

Follow my head

[Em] [D]

When it's strange to take a walk downstairs

[C] [D]

Sweep you all up on a corner

[G] [D]

And pay for my bread

[Em] [D]

You know that I cannot believe my own truth

[C] [D]

To show what a truth

[G] [D] [Em]

Got nothing to lose

Chorus

[Em] [D]

Yeah yeah and it's okay

[C] [D]

I tie my hands up to a chair

[G] [D]

So I don't fall that way

[Em] [D]

Yeah yeah and I'm alright

[C] [D]

I took a sip of something poison

[G] [D] [Em]

But I'll hold on tight

Verse 2

(same as verse 1)

You know those days when you wanted to choose

To not get out of bed and

Get lost in your head again

You play the game but you gotta cut

Cuz' you're coming down hard

Your joints are off stud

I tried to say that's not the only way

I never knew if I could

Convince myself to change

You were pacing I was insecure

Slip and fall I got the calls of the

Prison I was living in

Chorus

[Em] [D]

Yeah yeah and it's okay

[C] [D]

I tie my hands up to a chair

[G] [D]

So I don't fall that way

[Em] [D]

Yeah yeah and I'm alright

[C] [D]

I took a sip of something poison

[G] [D] [Em]

But I'll hold on tight
