Intro: E   D   G  C

                     G 
The fountain was off. 
            G                                           C 
This is the first time I've been back to the city in months. 
                                    G 
I'm trying to hold it together but irony's found cracks in the foundation. 

C 
And you know, 
G 
I try so hard to be some great white hope 
E                       C          G                  D       G        D  
But I can't shake the feeling that tonight I'm gonna end up shaking in bed  
  G      
alone. 


E                   D 
I'm not a self-help book; I'm just a fucked up kid. 
G                                 E 
I had to take my own advice and I did. 
D                     G 
Now I'm waiting for it to sink in. 
E          D             G 
Expect me standing tall, back against the wall, 'cause what I learned was 
E              D 
It's not about forcing happiness; 
G 
It's about not letting the sadness win. 


C    G    C   G 

C 
I don't have roses in the closet 

      G 
But I've got pictures in a drawer 

      C 
It's everything left in me 
       G 
Not to stare at them anymore. 
  C                             G 
I walked upstairs and shaved my beard. 
            C 
I felt like I was holding sadness here 
G 
(I was holding sadness here) 


C    G    C   G  

 
E                   D 
I'm not a self-help book; I'm just a fucked up kid. 
G                                 E 
I had to take my own advice and I did. 
D                     G 
Now I'm waiting for it to sink in. 
E          D             G 
Expect me standing tall, back against the wall, 'cause what I learned was 
E              D 
It's not about forcing happiness; 
G 
It's about not letting the sadness win. 

(You can hold these out if you wish) 
C 
I don't have roses in the closet 
      G 
But I've got pictures in a drawer 
      C 
It's everything left in me 
       G 
Not to stare at them anymore. 


E                         D 
I'm not a self-help book; I'm just a fucked up kid. 
G 
I'm not a self-help book; I'm just a fucked up kid. 
E                         D 
I'm not a self-help book; I'm just a fucked up kid. 
G 
I'm not a self-help book; I'm just a fucked up kid.
