Bb           Gm               Bb              Gm 
I can understand how when the edges are rough 
         Bb              Gm                    Bb     Gm 
And they cut you like the tiniest slivers of glass 
         Eb       Cm 
And you feel too much 
         Eb        Cm                     Bb   Gm  Bb  Gm 
And you don't know how long you're gonna last 

                  F               Eb       Bb 
But everyone you know is tryin' smooth it over 
Eb            Bb                F 
Find a way to make the hurt go away 
                  F               Eb       Bb 
But everyone you know is tryin' smooth it over 
            Eb         Bb            F 
Like you're trying to scream under water 

   Eb9                       Bb  F        Eb9 
But I won't let you make the great escape 
                                   Bb   F            Eb9 
I'm never gonna watch you checkin' out of this place 

I'm not gonna lose you 
           Bb              F 
Cause the passion and the pain 
           Bb        F       Eb9 
Are gonna keep you alive someday 

Gonna keep you alive someday 

(Bb Gm)(2x) 

   Bb              Gm                 Bb              Gm 
I feel like I could wave my fist in front of your face 
         Bb                 Gm           Bb    Gm 
And you wouldn't flinch or even feel a thing 
                             Eb        Cm 
And you've retreated to your silent corner 
           Eb         Cm             Bb     Gm 
Like you decided the fight was over for ya 

                  F               Eb       Bb 
But everyone you know is tryin' smooth it over 
Eb            Bb                F 
Find a way to make the hurt go away 
                  F               Eb       Bb 
But everyone you know is tryin' smooth it over 
Eb         Bb                          F 
Everyone needs a floor they can fall through 

   Eb9                       Bb  F        Eb9 
But I won't let you make the great escape 
                                   Bb   F           Eb9 
I'm never gonna watch you checkin' out of this place 

I'm not gonna lose you 
           Bb              F 
Cause the passion and the pain 
           Bb        F       Eb9 
Are gonna keep you alive someday 

Gonna keep you alive someday 

(Bb Gm)(4x) 

Bb                    Gm             Bb          Gm 
I'm terrified of the dark but not if you go with me 
Bb                  Gm              Bb     Gm 
And I won't need a pill to make me numb 
        Eb                  Cm 
And I wrote the book on runnin' 
          Eb            Cm                Bb  Gm  Bb  Gm 
But that chapter of my life will soon be done 

 F                  Eb Bb 
I'm the king of the great escape 
F                                  Eb  Bb          F 
You're not gonna watch me checkin' out of this place 

You're not gonna lose me 
           Eb          Bb 
Cause the passion and pain 
           Eb        Bb       F 
Are gonna keep us alive someday 

           F 
Yeah, the passion and the pain 
           Eb9              Bb  Gm  Bb  Gm 
Are gonna keep us alive someday 
     Bb  Gm  Bb 
Someday
