Verse picking
i sink into the walls
and staring up i saw
i'm alone in all my thoughts
too afraid to be crazy, i run.
it always finds me
i'm driving right through town
but the windows down i fly
it's a feeling spring has brought
but an eye for the winters what i got
it always finds me.
so tonight when i left here
all i said was "goodbye" and thats alright
no i'll see you later, i've been trying my whole life
7
and if it's, an eye for an eye why can't i get this right
i'm too slow to go fast, too nervous to do that.
so i run, run away, why should i...
i take my chances slow
after all it's no ones fault
but the pain seemes to crave my life
so ashamed of my weakness, i lied
it always finds me.
so tonight when i left here
all i said was "goodbye" and thats alright
no i'll see you later, i've been trying my whole life
7
and if it's, an eye for an eye why can't i get this right
i'm too slow to go fast, too nervous to do that.
so i run, run away, why should i...
why should i?
why should i?
why should i?

Verse picking
time goes by and we watch our lives
as they're sadly slipping away
alone we crawl.
so follow that tune quickly or you lose that melody
youve never heard when you were young you didnt care
it's the one that stole your fathers pride
that mighty mighty dollar sign
these are the things that matter now
so sing along and be pre-
pared to jump when the ship has sunk
and you're slowly watching it drown
alone you crawl.
so follow that tune quickly or you lose that melody
youve never heard when you were young you didnt care
it's the one that stole your fathers pride
that mighty mighty dollar sign
these are the things that matter now
so sing along and be prepared
maybe we care about to much time we're lost and in spite we run
i'm wrong, no i'm wrong.

she's so smart today
she thought she could be right here again but
she can only see what shes afraid to see
shes now scared, she says "i can't please myself applause please
and it's you who i can't be from unless"
and he stares says "do you find it fair"
always by your side knowing nothing well it's always right
and we've come oh so far to gain some strength but now
we pull to hard and now all you want is gone
and now all you want is gone
and now i'm all i've got
so he tested time, it's time that he thought'd she'd need again
it's his selfish mind, that gives him this empty life.
he now screams, he says "i can't please myself and it's you, you're all i want"
and he stares, thought we'd put them there
always by your side knowing nothing well it's always right
and we've come oh so far to gain some strength but now
we pull to hard and now all you want is gone
and now all you want is gone
and now i'm all i've got
wait and see that it's not just me it's everything in our lives
and it makes excuses hard but i can't i can't
do anything to make this right
and now all you want is gone
and now all you want is gone
and now i'm all i've got
When the Little Fellow Came Close and Put Both Arms Around His Moth
chords picked for the verse
i remember a man who was true to himself
when he put his mind to something it was done
he could help everyone just by doing what he loved
he could work with his hands so good.
but what no one cares to know, that he works em to the bone.
he comes home to himself and he sits in his chair
gets lost inside pictures on the wall
he's had some loves in his life that he's lost but knows why
he's lived with mistakes for so long.
he's the best man that i know, stays happy all alone,
he gives me hope for the best in everyone
in understanding what we've done i laugh to myself it gives me hope
for the best for what we lost to understand when no one wants.
it makes me laugh, it gives me hope
i know this lady who grew up so quickly she had a child when she was so young
without the time or money to persue what she wanted she slowly lost touch with her love
i bet she tried to run, but she didnt have the guts to leave her
son who was born on a day in the spring grow up to respect her so much
for all that she had lost and for never giving up, for loving the mistake that she loved
oh lady you deserve, more than anyone i know.
you give me hope for the best in everyone
in understanding what we've done i laugh to myself it gives me hope
for the best for what we lost to understand what no one wants.
it makes me laugh, it gives me hope
i'm sitting alone and i think to myself, i'd be great if people could know.
if we wore big tags or we threw big partys where only lost people could go.
so we'd never think we're wrong, and we'd never feel alone, alone.

you wake under the sheets the morning took the sun
so you'd forget to wake but it sends you flowers to
forget your lost and make it up to you
but i woke up and knew...
it's all about being scared life can only give you so much
before you have to learn on your own
it's the most important to me,
that no one trust anything.
you wake under the sheets the morning took the sun
so you'd forget to wake but it sends you flowers to
forget your lost and make it up to you
but i woke up and knew...
its all about being scared sometimes i trace the lines
but you taught me everything
its the most important to me
that no one trust anything
and you wake everyones asleep
everyones asleep
everyones asleep
everyones asleep
you wake under the sheets the morning took the sun
so you'd forget to wake but it sends you flowers to
forget your lost and make it up to you
but i woke up and knew...
so wake up and know you're gone
you're gone alone
you're all alone

you're always in control you never make a big deal
you always are your own you never need someone to feel good for yourself
you always watch yourself after everyone else
you never change a shoe because it's always on the right foot, oh you.
and we're all finding ways to find ourselves
through these broken fallin walls that we call
we call our own and we're never looking away
hopefully someday we can just stay home
im too afraid to talk i never even curse
well i think them all the time cause it's the reason why
i'm so built up inside
dreams run off the screen i save the world with my toys
i have another girl for every adventure oh yeah
i try but thats me
and we're all finding ways to find ourselves
through these broken fallin walls that we call
we call our own and we're never looking away
hopefully someday we can just stay home
take a look you see what youll find
maybe look and see what youll find
take a look you see what youll find
maybe look and see what youll find
take a look you see what youll find
maybe look and see what youll find
and we're all finding ways to find ourselves
through these broken fallin walls that we call
we call our own and we're never looking away
hopefully someday we can just stay home

see james, he loved to run
its all he knows for limits its all he wants and
someone one said james if you run for me
i can make your dreams come true
he said its not quite what i want
but sign me up
well think before you ride
you will see when your left but you hate your life
and you dont want to be that someday
and youll thank me tomorrow but james said
no i will go and run a many many miles
and he, he had to always be someone
he didnt want to be but james
thats toough, oh no what have ive become
he says oh no what have ive become
look at what youll find
you cant see that he loved but he hates his life
cause he hides it so well when he smiles
and he knows that youll never find out
what have i've become
what have i've become
what have i've become
what have i've become
see what james didnt know, that its a shady business at the end
everyone is punching at your back
why they take everything you have
End of the Background Noise

this is the background to your life
its what you think you see sometime
then its gone, its time you wait against the light
you think well i'm all alone
no one knows, when your heart jumps through your throat
its gets so hard to get this right, just give up
this is thevoice you sometimes hear
when just its back and takes it in for the best
in this world, we work so hard for ourselves
when im gone i get so nervous for my heart
that it wont work hard enough
so if with your foot pressed against the floor
you feel the life through your arms
and you smile, oh what will it ever take to make this go away
forever, ever wonder where we are, we're all so
scared that we're alone, well we are
but we're so thankful for our lives, we show this all the time if you one
in this world, we work so hard for ourselves
when im gone i get so nervous for my heart
that it wont work hard enough
hard enough
hard enough
hard enough
if you wonder where we are
and can you take anymore
cause i cant did you ever want it to just stop (silence)
is this what you wondered
is this what you thought you'd get
is it all you ever hoped
is that all your smiles got
is this what you wanted
is this what you thought'd you get
if it all you ever hoped
is that all your smiles got
so now the sounds not coming back
and thats whats great it never can

so now i think of fear as a person who
wants to know everyone and what they love
and he comes at night while you're laying there
he just knows, oh he knows he gets in your head
now i walk through the door
the same one you came in
so we can go back to how things used to be x2
he holds the key to your smile and he
wont let you any close to half of you want
but not i think of it, we know him our whole life
and we still don't know who or what he wants.
and just walk through the door
the same one you came in
so we can go back to how things used to be x2
and just walk through the door
the same one you came in
so we can go back to how things used to be
and i will wait, right here
with my arms by my side
until i can't have back
what i loved before

breathe in out slow
theres only one confusing part
where did all the insects go
we loved what we did, we love too much
we need too much
breathe in out slow
there's so much now that brings us down
where did all the insects go
we loved what we did, we love too much
where did all the insects go
we loved what we did, we love too much
we need too much
I know the sum and substance of my evil
A G F G (or play Am if you're doing open chords)
We all knew this day was coming
Our bitter hearts can hear it calling
So proud of what youve done so proud of who you are
Standing tall next to all the buildings
And filling up with all the reasons why you should never trust yourself
The way to fool yourself....im fooled
Its those nights alone where your driving
And the sky just looks a little funny
Your thinking of the worst you figure out the worst
Right after you figure it all out you find a way to straighten your head out
But what if you are wrong and the world is adding up
Its throwing signs from random places
To keep you at your toes so you dont figure it out
Before you figure it out
We fall to our knees and beg
The words are gone
Its just a thought
And we fall and we fall
And we fall to our knees
And we fall and we fall
(Our bitter hearts can hear it calling
So proud of what weve done)
