Chord names sit directly above the word where you change.
INTRO: Em - Am Em Am When bruised, coming down Em Am Then I, get turned around Em Am I tend to cut myself off Em Am >From things, I shouldn't run from C B Em It doesn't really matter C Sometimes we run for cover B Em I'm always on the outside Em Stab me in the back, wanting things that I lack Am Sticking to your ploy, is there something you enjoy? Em Publicity, and insecurity, Am Just wanna be me, it's my need to be free C B Em It doesn't really matter C Sometimes we run for cover B Em I'm always on the outside C B Em You never seem to wonder C How much you make me suffer B Em I speak it from the inside G Em Looking right at me G Em Won't receive my plea G Em Tell me what you mean B I'm not what's on the screen G Em Thinking what will be G Em Fighting in my sleep G Em That's quite enough for me B G - Em - G - Em - G - Em Make me wanna scream C Keep it to myself C B Em It doesn't really matter C Sometimes we run for cover B Em I'm always on the outside C B Em You never seem to wonder C How much you make me suffer B Em I speak it from the inside
