G                                  D         A          G F# G 
Well these angels in my eardrums can't tell bad from good 

G                                  D         A          G 
I lived inside these melodies just to make sure I still could 

        D        A              Em F# G        
and I cried all night even though I'm grown 

        D        A              Em F# G 
said 'Honey hold me tight, make me feel like home'

Cause your love is bright enough to burn all night 

        D        A              Em (Hold) 
sometimes love is a losin' fight 


G D You tried to keep going but the ride won't steady G Bm - A You tried to get high but your heart's too heavy Em F# G and you got one thing on your mind
Verso: G D A G F# G And now there's snake eyes on the sidewalk and fireworks overhead G D A G Won't you roll out that red carpet when we all wind up dead? D A Em F# G Hey smoke rings fade like a memory D A Em F# G You're honest as a ghost honey twice as free D A Em F# G You got faith enough to lift this curse D A Em F# G What if faith is just a false god's verse?
G D You tried to keep going but the ride won't steady G Bm - A You tried to get high but your heart's too heavy Em F# G and you got one thing on your mind

G D You tried to keep going but the ride won't steady G Bm - A You tried to get high but your heart's too heavy Em F# G and you got one thing on your mind
