Verse 1
Am                        Bm
Standing by myself on the sidewalk
Am                          Bm
Nothing in this world could make me talk
Am                              Bm
I'm nailed to this floor where there is no air
Am                      Bm
Alone I see myself and stare
Am                 Bm
Locked inside this world you gave me
      Am                    Bm
It's lonely here through the smoke I can't see clear


Chorus
    D                             G
And I know all the ways and I'll try
    D                   G
And I've seen all the places I get eyed
D                G
If I bear myself in the yard
D                               G
Would the end of the day always seem so hard

Am - Bm x2

Verse 2
Am                     Bm
Wait for the world to turn around
Am              Bm
Then I won't go up or down
Am                  Bm
Gentle winds must sometimes sit
     Am	                 Bm
The face that looks on in my mirror

And I've seen all the places where I hide

If I bear myself out in the yard
D                               G
Would the end of the day always be so hard

Bm          C                D

Would the end of the day always be so hard

Verse 3
Am                           Bm
Well all the nights last a thousand years
Am                               Bm
When you're in a time that feels so near
Am                          Bm
I'll just say you were the word I found
Am                   Bm
And then I won't go up or down

Sometimes I look down and I fall, yeah
