Tom: Cm

                    Ab
You're making me sick to my stomach
Cm         Bb
Testing my faith to its peak
       Cm           Ab
But it took me a while to believe it
       Cm        Bb
It was down in a space I can't reach
     Cm        Ab
But I can't excuse this anymore
      Cm        Bb
This feeling inside of me
       Cm        Ab
Your peripheral focus keeps failing to notice
    Cm       Bb
I'm tearing apart at the seams

[Bridge]
                Ab
I've never been up so high
          Bb                      Cm
This parachute's the missing proof
                Ab
I've made a mistake this time
                     Bb
Yeah, I've made a mistake this time

[Chorus]
Cm                                Gm
Scratched through the surface and we're all imperfect
             Cm/Ab
But there's something about you, that tightens the noose
Cm                                 Gm
If ignorance is bliss, then I'd be better off
Cm/Ab
Not knowing you, not knowing you
Cm                                Gm
When you scratched through the surface, we're all imperfect
        Cm/Ab
But you fired the gun, that broke through my lungs
Cm                                 Gm
If ignorance is bliss, then I'd be better off
Cm/Ab
Not knowing you


[Verse 2]
                        Ab
'Cause you're making me sick in my stomach
Cm          Bb
Boiling the blood in my veins
Cm         Ab
I feel the will in me fading
   Cm         Bb
To think of a reason to stay
    Cm         Ab
But I can't excuse this anymore
      Cm         Bb
These feelings inside of me
 Cm          Ab
Abusing your strength in my weakness
Cm         Bb
Tears me apart at the seams


[Bridge]
                Ab
I've never been up so high
          Bb                      Cm
This parachute's the missing proof
                Ab
I've made a mistake this time
                     Bb
Yeah, I've made a mistake this time

[Chorus]
Cm                                Gm
Scratched through the surface and we're all imperfect
             Cm/Ab
But there's something about you, that tightens the noose
Cm                                 Gm
If ignorance is bliss, then I'd be better off
Cm/Ab
Not knowing you, not knowing you
Cm                                Gm
When you scratched through the surface, we're all imperfect
        Cm/Ab
But you fired the gun, that broke through my lungs
Cm                                 Gm
If ignorance is bliss, then I'd be better off
Cm/Ab
Not knowing you
