Intro: D#mC#BA#
Verse:
D#m
Iʼm stuck in all that Iʼm used to
C#
And I shouldnʼt stay but I choose to
BA#
I fail my heart every time I give in
D#m
I, Iʼm a slave to the memories
C#B
And I play it safe so I never leave, oh oh
BA#
Oh, itʼs day after day, I just dance with the pain
Pre-chorus:
D#m
They say Iʼm more than the scars on my back
C#
But all of my demons keep holding me back
B
Right into that open door
A#
Somewhere that Iʼve been before
Chorus:
D#m
Canʼt seem to get no rest
C#
Trying to escape myself
B
I guess I must confess
A#
Iʼm comfortable in this mess
D#m
Better the ache I know
C#
Iʼm scared of the fate, I donʼt (Oh)
B
Just like a hand to hold (Like a hand)
A#
At least Iʼm not alone
Verse:
D#mC#
Pride lays the rules that I choose to abide
B
Latching on, tempting me to the high
BA#
Though itʼs flawed by design, I give in
Pre-chorus:
D#m
War in my veins, canʼt get away, self medicate, oh, Lord
C#
Thoughts in my brain are never sane, Iʼm never in control
B
Running to that open door (Open door)
A#
Somewhere that Iʼve been before
Bridge:
B
Canʼt seem to get no peace of mind
C#
All these feelings never fade
And the pain wonʼt Go away
B
And it haunts me
B
That nobodyʼs
A#
Gonna save me, yeah
Pre-chorus:
D#m
They say Iʼm more than the scars on my back

Right into that open door
A#
Somewhere that Iʼve been before

D#m
Canʼt seem to get no rest
