Verse 1:
F#5
When the day begins
A5
All the guilt sinks in
E5          F#5
And I look on the wreckage of the night
   F#5
Though I try to break free
A5
The cycle breaks me
E5      F#5
Am I ever gonna see the light?
F#5
All the friends I've lost
A5
And the pain I've caused
E5               F#5
Have never been enough just to make me stop
F#5         A5
The lines I draw to look at myself
  E5      F#5
Are turning into somebody else

Pre-Chorus:
D5          B5
I know how this will end
    E5    E5 F#5
But I'm starting up again
    D5       B5
Turned around, inside out
    E5
Cause this way


Chorus:
E5    F#5    A5     D5    E5
Takes me nowhere‚ I can't can't see a way out
E5    F#5    A5     D5    E5
Takes me nowhere‚ I can't can't see a way out
E5    F#5    A5     D5    E5
Takes me nowhere‚ I can't can't see a way out
E5     E5
It beats me up

E5   F#5    A5  D5       E5
When I go there‚ I know I could start again
E5   F#5    A5  D5     E5
When I go there‚ Oh no, here we go again
E5    F#5   A5  D5      E5
Takes me nowhere‚ Oh no, here we go again
E5     E5          E5
It beats me up


F#5 into Drum Fill


Verse 2:
   F#5
Open on this scene
   A5
A familiar dream
    E5            F#5
Of you telling me what I already know
      F#5
Though the truth seems near
  A5
You can't get there from here
    E5              F#5
But you sure know where you're gonna go

    F#5
As the rumor wind blows
  A5
My infamy grows
    E5
Seeing friends above
   F#5
And I hit another low
  F#5        A5
The picture I paint to look at myself
  E5      F#5
Is turning into somebody else


Pre-Chorus:
D5          B5
I know how this will end
    E5    E5 F#5
But I'm starting up again
    D5       B5
Turned around, inside out
    E5
Cause this way


Chorus:
E5    F#5    A5     D5    E5
Takes me nowhere‚ I can't can't see a way out
E5    F#5    A5     D5    E5
Takes me nowhere‚ I can't can't see a way out
E5    F#5    A5     D5    E5
Takes me nowhere‚ I can't can't see a way out
E5     E5
It beats me up

E5   F#5    A5  D5       E5
When I go there‚ I know I could start again
E5   F#5    A5  D5     E5
When I go there‚ Oh no, here we go again
E5    F#5   A5  D5      E5
Takes me nowhere‚ Oh no, here we go again
E5     E5          E5
It beats me up

Bridge:
  D5     B5
But today, if I change
     E5    E5 F#5
And stop digging my own grave
    D5         B5
I will try, to set things right
    E5
Cause this way


Chorus:
E5    F#5    A5     D5    E5
Takes me nowhere‚ I can't can't see a way out
E5    F#5    A5     D5    E5
Takes me nowhere‚ I can't can't see a way out
E5    F#5    A5     D5    E5
Takes me nowhere‚ I can't can't see a way out
E5     E5
It beats me up

E5   F#5    A5  D5       E5
When I go there‚ I know I could start again

E5   F#5    A5  D5     E5
When I go there‚ Oh no, here we go again

E5    F#5   A5  D5      E5
Takes me nowhere‚ Oh no, here we go again

E5     C#5          E5
It beats me up
