Tom: Em

                   Em             C             G
I guess that’s it, Giving up, giving in
              D                          Em 
I seem to think I can always win.
              C                        G
But I was wrong, replacingly
          D                           Em
A dirty towel for a bed of sheets.
       C                   G
I am here and it is now,
                D                                                Em 
No talk of futuristic keep your head on the ground
         C             G                             D
Self it seems so selfishly, accuse the killer.

Chorus:

          C                G
Because I have tried
         D                                   G     G/F# G   C
But it seems I never learned to pry open the can
                G                           D
And here I stand with broken fingers.
C                   G                     D
Lord open his eyes, help him see
                  G  G/F# G            C
Through that disguise that he cannot
     G                         D                       B7     
See upon the human devil the human devil.

Verse 2

        Em                        C
So it is now, and we are cold
              G                         D
To see you sick with half a soul
               Em                      C
Words are cheap and love it speaks
                                 G                                           D
The volumes that we need to make our hearts grow weak
               Em                                C
So come on back, and have some laughs
                      G                                        D
Remember that the good times they ain t so bad.
             Em                     C                          G
Cuz I am dying to try and find a way we can leave this..
     D
All behind.

Chorus:

(Same progression as above chorus)

Because I have tried 
But it seems I never learned to pry open the can
And here I stand with broken fingers.
Lord open his eyes, help him see
Through that disguise that he cannot
