Standard (EADGBE)

From the second verse on, the lead guitar plays a little riff like

Not sure about the tab at the beginning, kind of like that.

Well I got my heart up in a beautiful mess

I should’ve known better when I took the risk

To wreck myself and to gamble while broke

Shaking something mental at a loss for the words I’d once known

 Well I got my heart up in a beautiful mess

 I should’ve known better when I took the risk

 To wreck myself and to gamble while broke

 Shaking something mental at a loss for the words I’d once known

 I traded two steps forward for three steps back

 To get to know the meaning of showing respect

I found the pedestals and burned them down

 To kill my idols and to bury the thoughts underground

 I’m no longer deaf to the sounds

Chorus

I’m hardly feeling human anymore

Enough to drag my body from the floor

Well I got my head up in a critical mess

 Fighting like a demon in a shell I possess

Gnashing my teeth and speaking in tongues

 Still shaking something mental at a loss of the words I’d once known

 Something’s rattling my bones

Chorus

I’m hardly feeling human anymore

Enough to drag my body from the floor

I’m hardly feeling human anymore

Enough to drag my body from the floor

Intermission:

Stand to hold steady now

To take a breath and somehow

Take a step to begin again

After all we can only do out best

Chorus

I’m hardly feeling human anymore

Enough to drag my body from the floor

I’m hardly feeling human anymore

Enough to drag my body from the floor

A B (ends with Bass)

Stand and hold steady now
