B11
     It's alright
B11
     There comes a time
 
     Got no patience to search
B11
     For peace of mind
B11     
     Layin' low
B11
     Wanna take it slow
B11    
     No more hiding
B11
     Or disgusting truths I've sold
G          A
     Every day it's something
B
Hits me so cold
    G               A
    Find me sittin' by myself
      B    ********Should be Emaj7*********          
No excuses, then I know
 
B11
It's okay
Had a bad day
Hands are bruised 
From breaking rocks all day
Drained and blue
I bleed for you
You think it's funny
Well, you're drowing in it too
Yeah, it's fine
