[Intro]
G#m B F# C# G# B F# C# B
[Verse]
F#
I buried all my secret deep
A#m
I scream out loud when I'm asleep
G#m
I smash the mirror more than twice
B
I have no problem telling lies
F#
I drowned a bird when i was eight
A#m
And have a hard time telling love from hate
G#m
The list is long my temper's short
B
I don't know what I'm looking for
[Chorus]
G#m B F#
I wanna know the shape I'm in,
C#
the shape I'm in
G#m B F#
I wanna know before I'm out of here,
C#m B
I'm out of here
[Verse]
F#
I trembled when I heard his voice
A#m
And still it sound as loud as noice
G#m
It shakes me 'till I can't stand up
B
I tend to drink, until I drop
F#
Just like him I roam the street
A#m
Trying hard to containt the beast
G#m
That's in our blood for a hundred years
B
I swear I'll make it dissapear
[Chorus]
G#m B F#
I want you to know the shape I'm in,
C#
the shape I'm in
G#m B F#
I want you to know before you're out of here,
C#
you're out of here
G#m B G#m
I want you to know
[Solo]
F# G#m B
[Verse]
F#
I found a bird out on the street
A#m
With broken wings, it would not eat
G#m
I patched it up and took it home
B
I would not leave that bird alone
F#
I opened up the windows wide
A#m
Until one day it flew outside
G#m
And it sang a song I've never known
B
I hope someday I'll sing my own
[Outro]
