Intro: C F Am F C 
 
Verse 
 
C      F            Am 
In my mind I`m crawling on your floor 
F           C 
Vomiting and defeated 
C       F            Am 
Total absence of grace 
 
Your reluctant voice  
 F                  C 
saying; you decide your own fate 
 
    E                          Am 
But I wear rubberbands round my soul 
E                       Am 
They keep me from crawling 
F                                Am 
And these rubberbands round my soul 
F                  Am F C   F  Am 
they keep me from falling 
 
Verse 
 
C         F           Am 
In my repeated dreams 
                         F     C 
You stare at me with an empty gaze 
     C         F      Am 
You turn your back on me 
                            F        C 
And you search for more intriguing days 
 
F 
Loathing this  
Am 
Controlling this 
F                       Am 
Let me get a hold of this 
 
    E                          Am 
But I wear rubberbands round my soul 
E                       Am 
They keep me from crawling 
F                                Am 
And these rubberbands round my soul 
F                  Am F C   F  Am 
they keep me from falling 
 
Verse 
 
     C                 F              Am 
And then when you are not in my dreams 
 
and not in my mind 
   F 
but we are at the same place  
        C 
at the same time 
C     F            Am 
rubber no longer holds  
     F             C 
the borders of my soul
