Intro 1

Verse 1
D 
Well, I bet
my money on a two -bed dream
Fell asleep in the car
G 
and woke up at the wheel
Em 
I'm a stick in the mud
Bm 
D 
from the walls of a flood
Em 
Bm 
D 
I'm a fly in a garbage can
Em 
I'm gonna have to know
Bm 
D 
Until I deserve
G 
Em 
D 
The life of a better man
Well, I've had my share
of the formal scene
G 
And I've shed some tears so gallantly
Em 
Bm 
I'm splitting at  the seams
D 
in a battle with a dream
Em 
Bm 
D 
I'm a calf to the birds that land
Em 
Bm 
I do nothing at all
D 
But something that I call
G 
Em 
D 
The life of a better man
F#m 
Tell me I'm   wrong
Em 
I'm eroded
D 
F#m 
But an    honest heart
Em 
Left exposed
G

To shine like gold

Em 
Bm 
D 
When my mind's gone muddy
and my head's all still
Got to start a life, oh,
G 
to end up like this
Em 
There's a creak in the floor
Bm 
D 
and a shadow at my door
Em 
Bm 
D 
And a fear of what's at hand
Em 
Bm 
It's a ghost in the hall,
D 
an image that I call
G 
Em 
D 
The life of a dead man
F#m 
Em 
Tell me I'm wrong, I'm eroded

But an honest heart left
