Intro 1

Verse 1
D 
Em 
C 
I can try, I can fight
G 
D 
But there'll always be this distance
Em 
This isn't me, the way I am
C 
G 
Isn't just how it's been written
D 
Em 
I'm strong enough, I know that
C 
G 
D 
But there's far more that I lack
Em 
C 
I'm forever catching up
G 
D 
Em 
Catching up,  catching up to you
C 
Seeing what you earn, now these bitter words
G 
D 
I can taste them on the tip of my tongue
Em 
Falling off the curve,
C 
now you're racing to be first
G 
D 
Is there any more I could have done?
Em 
Am I trained harder,
C 
if my brain was smarter
G 
D 
Would the outcome be the same?
Em 
C 
Keep my guard up, but it cracks my arm
G 
D 
Are all these efforts all being paid?
Em 
C 
I can try, I can fight
D 
G 
For there'll always be this distance
D 
Em 
C 
Is it me? Is it the way I am?
G 
D 
Is it just how it's been written?
Em 
I'm strong enough, I know that
C 
G 
D 
But there's far more that I lack
Em 
I'm forever catching up
C 
G 
D 
Catching up, catching up
Em 
C 
They became what they're meant to be
G 
But now this wave of
D 
Em 
jealousy is drowning me
C 
G 
D 
I can't breathe, but they deserve it
Em 
C 
They found places I could never reach
G 
D 
Looked out beyond what I could ever see
Em 
C 
But they deserve it, they deserve it
D 
C 
D 
Why don't I deserve it?
Em 
Am I selfish?
C 
I can't help it, I was destined,
G 
D 
I thought
Em 
Acting reckless,
C 
G 
but the message that I'm sending
D 
now seems flawed
Em 
Can I mend this?
C 
Redirect my soul?
G 
D 
Find another way to achieve my goal
Em 
I'll be at your side,
C 
G 
swallowing my pride
D 
It kills inside
Em 
I can try, I can fight
C 
D 
G 
D 
But there'll always be this distance
Em 
C 
Is it me? Is it the way I am?
G 
D 
Is it just how it's been written?
I'm strong enough, I know that
C 
G 
D 
But there's far more that I lack
Em 
C 
G 
I'm forever catchin' up, catchin' up,
D 
Em 
catchin' up to you
D 
C 
They became what they're meant to be
G 
D 
But now this wave of jealousy
Em 
is drowning me
D 
G 
And I can't be what they deserve
D 
Em 
They found places I
C 
could never reach
G 
D 
Looked up beyond what I could ever see
Em 
But why do deserve it?
C 
They deserve it
D 
Em 
Why don't I deserve it?
Em 
D 
It's killing me
Em 
C 
D 
It's killing me
It's killing me you
