Intro 1

Verse 1
D 
I gave you all my money
and I took you in
And I stood by you
through the thick and the thin
F#m 
I put myself down for your benefit
I soon found out
I couldn't pay for this
Bm 
And your loss, you said to me
D 
How long can you live your life
on your knees?
G 
It's taken time but I'm starting to see
Bm 
F#m 
That the only person I can trust in
D 
Is me
We started as friends
and that much we meant
As a hole in the world
where you used to fit
F#m 
And it's the same  old story in every city
You find someone to love,
A 
someone to pity
Bm 
And I've got hope but I'm
counting the cost
D 
And I'm struggling to see
the line that I've crossed
G 
Sometimes you feel like a stranger to me
Bm 
F#m 
But it's all you are and all
D 
you'll ever be
A 
Bm 
You're letting everybody else
tell you who I am
That I'm bad,
bad news and I'm half a man
D 
I'm putting it off till I find it in myself
F#m 
I'm praying that I'm gonna
A 
find someone else
Bm 
You're letting everybody else
tell you who I am
And you expect me to understand
D 
Well the day's gonna come
when you're all gonna see
F#m 
That the fear holding
A 
D 
you's got a hold on me
A 
D 
Said I  gave you all my money
and I let you in
Just so you could feel more comfortable
in your own skin
F#m 
I struggled to see
as you turned out the light
You know I never let
A 
anybody out of my sight
Bm 
You're lost, that's what you believe
D 
How long can you live your life
on your knees?
G 
Sometimes you feel like a stranger to me
Bm 
But it's all you are and
F#m 
D 
all you'll ever be
A 
Bm 
You're letting everybody else
tell you who I am
That I'm bad,
bad news and I'm half a man
D 
Well the day's gonna come
when you're all gonna see
F#m 
That the fear holding you's
A 
got a hold on me
Bm 
You're letting everybody else
tell you who I am
And do you really understand

Has your life turned out
how you thought it would be?

Now the fear holding you's
