              Intro: G5 A5 A#5 Em 
 
 
Verse 1: 
G5   A5     A#5    Em 
Just another lesson learned 
G5    A5     A#5    Em 
Wear a scar, a bore repeating 
G5    A5    A#5     Em 
Take a simple fateful turn 
G5   A5   A#5    Em 
Opened up to stop the bleeding 
 
G5      A5   A#5      Em 
Feeling like you never could 
G5      A5   A#5      Em 
Been the disconnected frying 
G5   A5      A#5         Em 
Hit the vein and struck a nerve 
G5   A5        A#5    Em 
Seeing through a self that's blinding 
 
 
 
G5 A5 A#5 
 
G5            A5      A#5 
   Nowhere to buy in 
G5            A5      A#5 
   Most of us hiding 
G5            A5      A#5 Em 
   Others are shining 
 
 
Verse 2: 
G5   A5    A#5    Em 
Just another brick you toss 
G5    A5     A#5     Em 
Stone the number one deceiver 
G5  A5   A#5     Em 
Multiply the added cost 
G5  A5    A#5     Em 
  Easy to become a believer 
 
G5      A5   A#5      Em 
Feeling like you never could 
G5      A5   A#5      Em 
Been the disconnected frying 
G5   A5      A#5         Em 
Hit the vein and struck a nerve 
G5   A5        A#5    Em 
Seeing through a self that's blinding 
 
 
 
G5 A5 A#5 
 
G5            A5      A#5 
   Nowhere to buy in 
G5            A5      A#5 
   Most of us hiding 
G5            A5      A#5 Em 
   Others are shining

In your darkest hour, you strike gold 
  B5              C5             A5 
A thought clicks, not the be-all end-all
