Intro
F# B F#/D# B x2
[Verse 1]
F# Gadd9
I was looking down at you smiling underneath
F#/D# B
For once I held you tight, but shadowed hands grabbed at me
F# Gadd9
You're head was in the clouds, now those clouds are in your head
F#/D# C#
It's when you needed me, so I listened to what you said
[Pre-chorus]
F#/D# B
Look another year went by,
F#/A#
They keep passing by,
C#
But damn I didn't even die,
F#/D# B
Too old and slow I've grown,
F#/A# C#
I fought time but lost
[Instrumental]
F# Gadd9 F#/D# B
[Verse 2]
F# Gadd9
It was love like a callus you scarred enough to be
F#/D# B
Tough and immune, your body adapts you see
F# Gadd9
To all above my head, and all below my feet
F#/D# C#
Know that's one freedom you'll never take from me
[Pre-chorus]
F#/D# B
Look another year went by,
F#/A#
They keep passing by,
C#
But damn I didn't even die,
F#/D# B
Too old and slow I've grown,
F#/A# C#
I fought time but lost
[Chorus]
F# C# F#/A# B
To criticize and judge, how did I end up here
F# C# F#/A# B
With these standards I'm forced to love, make me disappear

To criticize and judge, how did I end up here

With these standards I'm forced to love, make me disappear
F# C# F#/A# B
To criticize and judge, how did I end up here

With these standards I'm forced to love, make me disappear
