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

Just like a hand to hold (Like a hand)

At least Iʼm not alone
