Tom: D
G A
Cheekbones that shine like diamonds
D E Em
Oh darkness, I am nerveless
G A
Eyes closed for lack of purpose
D E Em G
Lack of light or fear that I’ll lose it
E G
I’m still afraid of the dark
E G
You were my light for so long
E G
Oceans deep and mountains tall
E G F#m
Our future plays tricks on us, huh?
[Verse]
G A
Stories that wreak of fiction
D Em G
Adorned, written in cursive
A
You were a catholic school kid
D E G
You kept quiet for fear that you’d chose this
A
Dimples that cut through eyelids
D Em G
Oh, heartlessness is burden
A
High lows, for you’re uncertain
D E G
Of eagerness or fear that you’ll lose it
[Pre-Chorus]
Em G
Or fear that you’ll lose it
Em G
Or fear that you’ll lose it
Em G
Or fear that you’ll lose it
Em F#m B
Or fear that you’ll lose it
[Chorus]
D G Em B
The person you made yourself out to be
Bm Em E B
Would feel sorry for what you've done to me
G Em B
Like scrapped sheet metal shaves ivories
Bm Em
You started out slow but you cut your teeth
G E
You cut your teeth
G E
You cut your teeth
[Verse]
G A
Cheekbones that shine like diamonds
D E Em
Oh darkness, Ii am nerveless
G A
Eyes closed for lack of purpose
D E Em G
Lack of light or fear that I’ll lose it
[Pre-Chorus]
Em G
Or fear that you’ll lose it
Em G
Or fear that you’ll lose it
Em G
Or fear that you’ll lose it
Em F#m G
Or fear that you’ll lose it
[Bridge]
D Bm
You’ve never felt sorry at all
A G
You’ve never felt sorry at all
D Bm
You’ve never felt sorry at all
A G
You’ve never felt sorry at all
[Chorus]
D Bm
The person you’ve made yourself out to be
A G
Would feel sorry for what you've done to me

Like scrapped sheet metal shaves ivories
A G D
Started out slow but you cut your teeth
Bm A G
You cut your teeth
