[VERSE 1]
Am                     Dm           Am 
   Shout out from the bottom of my lungs
    Dm       Am        Em    Am  
A plague on both your hou - ses
Am                      Dm    Am 
    This thing, it’s a family affair
       Dm    Am      Em  Am  
It’s drawing out my weakness

F                    G      * E D C A C *   
    Big boys don’t cry
F                    G      * E D C A C *   
    They don’t ask why

[CHORUS]
Am               F           G            Am          
    There was a time when a moment like this
 F                  Am      Em    Am 
Wouldn’t ever cro - oss my mind
Am                F            G            Am          
    The sun will rise with my name on your lips
        F                     Am         Em   Am 
 ‘Cause everything will cha - ange    toni  -  ight


[BRIDGE]

| Am  | Dm  Am  | Dm  Am  | Em  Am  |

Am                         F7+ 
I want to be back on the ground
          G6             Am    G  
Where my feet touch my shadow
   Am                          F7+ 
I want to dig my heels in the dirt
          G6                  C         G/B  
Feel it break between all of my    toes
Am                          F7+ 
Anything to stop floating ‘round
          G6                Am      G       F 
Bring me down, back down below, oh, oh, oh, oh


[VERSE 2]
Am                   Dm             Am 
    Take bread, and push the anger down
     Dm   Am     Em  Am  
Try to remember calmness

[VERSE 3]
Am                        Dm          Am 
    Hey now, what’s the gravity upon your face
   Dm      Am          Em    Am  
So I’m the one who’s blee - ding

Am                     Dm               Am 
    Real men, always thinkin’ with our fists
    Dm      Am     Em    Am  
My turn to be the vic - tim
