Capo at 7th
Intro: D Bm G x4
D Bm G D Bm G
Sometimes in my bed at night, I curse the dark and a pray for light
D Bm G D Bm G
And sometimes, the light's no, consolation
D Bm G D Bm G
Blinded by a memory, afraid of what it might do to me
D Bm G D Bm G
And the tears and the sweat only mock my desperation

Don't you know me I'm the boy next door? the one you find so easy to ignore
G (hold)
Is that what I was, fighting for?

Walking on a thin line, straight off the front line

Labeled as freaks, loose on the streets of the city

Walking on a thin line, straight off the front line

Take a look at my face, see what it's doing to me
D Bm G D Bm G
Taught me how to shoot to kill, a specialist with a deadly skill
D Bm G D Bm G
A skill I needed to have to be a survivor
D Bm G D Bm G
It's over now or so they say, well, sometimes, it don't work out that way
D Bm G D Bm G
Cause your never the same when you've been, under fire
