🎸 Intro:

Em Am



🎸 Verse 1:
Am
I took the midnight path
C        G
In the aftermath
C/E          Am
Tearing out the sutures
Am
Is a new way back
C        G
To a broken past
C/E         F
Just our broken future?

🎸 Pre-Chorus:
            Am
I heard you tore it all down
  G           F
Destroyed the world we found



🎸 Chorus:
     C
Are we a lost cause?
      G/B    E
Are we just lost 'cause
     Am   G/B         F
We won't be the future we refuse to see?
        C
And if I'm your lost cause
        G/B   E
It will be your lost cause
     Am     G/B      F
You won't see me as I am, not the enemy
             Em Am Em Am
I'll be your lost cause


🎸 Verse 2:
Am
Do you remember us
C         G
On a late night bus
C/E          Am
Taking everything for granted?
Am                 C
You're so scary with the lights on
                  G
That my love songs are fight songs
          C/E  F
But my punches never landed


🎸 Pre-Chorus:
            Am
I heard you tore it all down
  G         F
Destroyed the world we found
       F
The world we found


🎸 Chorus:
    C
Are we a lost cause?
      G/B    E
Are we just lost 'cause
     Am   G/B         F
We won't be the future we refuse to see?
        C
And if I'm your lost cause
        G/B   E
It will be your lost cause
     Am     G/B      F
You won't see me as I am, not the enemy

I'll be your lost cause
