Intro: Em C G x2 verse 1 Em You and I were stuck in the waste C Talking about our salad days G What a damn lie Em But you and I are stuck like glue C And that's the God damn truth G Baby, bye-bye Pre-Chorus Em Well, you could turn to water and we'd all float on C Give up trying to be someone G Take your head apart Free your own heart Em You and I are stuck out of phase C G Always begging for some grace when there's no time Am We get no reply Em D Every night you were tripping out Em D In the morning you were coming down G If it's breaking your heart, if nothing is fun Am Don't lose hope, my son This is the last one Em C G verse 2 Em You and I repent of our sins C G Yeah, we feel so Ammerican laying in the road Em Was a shoe-in for the crash of the day C And we're never going to walk away G Never going home Pre-Chorus Em I'm hoping that in time, you can lay down C G All this weight you've been carrying around and maybe one day You'll find your way Em To climb on up out of your grave C With the bits of you you managed to save G And for the last time Am Yeah, you say good-bye Em D Every night you were tripping out Em D In the morning you were coming down G If it's breaking your heart, if nothing is fun Am Don't lose hope, my son This is the last one Em D 'Cause every night had you laid low Em D It's going to feel so good to let it go G It's all in your head, your race is run Am Don't give up, my son, this is the last one This is the last one Bridge G D Am And he said, "You are not alone You are not alone" Em G And he said, "You are not alone G Am You are not alone" Em D Every night you were tripping out Em D In the morning you were coming down G If it's breaking your heart, if nothing is fun Am Don't lose hope, my son This is the last one Em D 'Cause every night had you laid low Em D It's going to feel so good to let it go G It's all in your head, your race is run Am Don't give up, my son, this is the last one
