I decided to make an acoustic version of this song so I could have a more full
sound when I play it solo. It's great for when you want something to back up
your singing and you don't have a full band. The chords are all correct but
there might be minor typos on chord placement and lyrics. Anyways, if you have
any questions, comments, requests(for acoustic versions of songs), or corrections
e-mail me at nrlsky1@yahoo.com or talk to me on AIM at Q67.

Intro A Asus4 A D Dsus4 D A Asus4 A D Dsus4 D F# E* D Dsus4 DE
A Asus4 A D Dsus4 D
When was it that you lost your youth or traded
A Asus4 A D Dsus4 D
It for something more for them to use so jaded
F#
Why is it that you never said
E*
I love you more than just a friend
D Dsus4 D
I pray this gridlock never ends
E
And when we get there just depends
A Asus4 A D Dsus4 D
I found out recently that you are leaving
A Asus4 A D Dsus4 D
For good I hope I softly tell my ceiling
F#
It's better now to be alive
E*
Sleeping is my 9 to 5
D Dsus4 D Dsus4 D Dsus4
I'm having nightmares all the time
E
Of running out of words that rhyme
A E
Everything that you could never say
F#
Would never matter anyway
D E
I took a hammer and two nails to my eardrums long ago
A E
Before that steak knife took my eyes
F#
I looked up to the sky
For the last thing I would ever see
D E
For the last time I'd cry
A Asus4 A D Dsus4 D A Asus4 A D Dsus4 D F# E* D Dsus4 D Dsus4 D Dsus4 DE
A Asus4 A D Dsus4 D
When was it that you sold your life or wasted
A Asus4 A D Dsus4 D
Every bite of that small slice you never tasted
F#
I guess I should be one to talk
E*
There's nights that I can't even walk
D
There's days I couldn't give a fuck
E
And in between is where I'm stuck
A Asus4 A D Dsus4 D
From blocks away I heard somebody screaming
A Asus4 D Dsus4
That small child inside of you that you left bleeding
F#
You stabbed him up not once but twice
E*
Cubicles will now suffice
D Dsus4 D Dsus4 D Dsus4
Some say it's the roll of the dice
E
I think they're wrong I know I'm right
A E
Every breath that I could barely breathe
F#
Could barely make it past my teeth
D E
I took a blowtorch to both of my lungs a long long time ago
A
Every step that I could take
E F#
Every one more difficult to make
D E
Mr. Chainsaw came and took my legs a long, long time ago
A Asus4 A D Dsus4 D
