Intro:
F#m7 Bm D E
F#m7 Bm D


Verse 1:
     F#m7
I've been away, a little while
  Bm
Sometimes I just can't help myself
    D
When my mind's running wild
     E
I seem to lose grip on reality
   F#m7
And I try to disregard
     Bm               D
The crazy things the voices tell me to do
       E
But it's no use
F#m7        Bm
 I tried to own it, write songs about it
D               E
 Believe me, I tried, in the end, I needed to breathe
F#m7       Bm
 Find inspiration, some kind of purpose
D            E         F#m7 Bm D
 To take a second to face what makes me, me

Chorus:
D           Bm
 All I needed was the last thing I wanted
F#m7          E            D
 To sit alone in a room and say it all out loud
          Bm
Every moment, every second, every trespass
F#m7        E          D
 Every awful thing, every broken dream
              Bm
A couple of years back and forth with myself in a cage
F#m7               E
 Banging my head 'gainst the wall, tryna' put words on a page
D           Bm
 All I needed was the last thing I wanted
F#m7          E
 To sit alone in a room, alone in a room


Verse 2:
     F#m7
I see the world a couple of times
     Bm
Tried to cure the ache with absence
     D
But that hole was still a hole
    E
And my mind kept playing tricks on me
    F#m7
Feeling older every day
     Bm                D
Took everything I had to not crash and burn
            E
But I'm starting to learn
F#m7           Bm
 Sometimes I'll fall down, sometimes I'll lose hope
D              E
 But those days will be few if I keep my feet on the ground
F#m7        Bm
 I might be lonely, but I ain't alone here
D               E          F#m7 Bm D
 So I keep pushing the limits of what makes me, me


Chorus:
D           Bm
 All I needed was the last thing I wanted
F#m7          E            D
 To sit alone in a room and say it all out loud
          Bm
Every moment, every second, every trespass
F#m7        E          D
 Every awful thing, every broken dream
              Bm
A couple of years back and forth with myself in a cage
F#m7               E
 Banging my head 'gainst the wall, tryna' put words on a page
D           Bm
 All I needed was the last thing I wanted
F#m7          E        D Bm F#m7 E
 To sit alone in a room, alone in a room
       D Bm F#m7 E
Alone in a room


Bridge:
    D Bm F#m7
'Cause I can be
E
Better than I was
D Bm F#m7
I can be
E
Better than I am


Outro:
D           Bm
 All I needed was the last thing I wanted
F#m7          E            D
 To sit alone in a room and say it all out loud
          Bm
Every moment, every second, every trespass
F#m7        E          D
 Every awful thing, every broken dream
              Bm
A couple of years back and forth with myself in a cage
F#m7               E
 Banging my head 'gainst the wall, tryna' put words on a page
D           Bm
 All I needed was the last thing I wanted
F#m7          E        D Bm F#m7 E
 To sit alone in a room, alone in a room
       D Bm F#m7
Alone in a room
