G
My old man he kicked me out
C
He kicked me out
Em C
When I told him that I lived this way
G C
I lived this way, I lived this way
Em C
I lived this way, I lived this way
G C
I lived this way, I lived this way
Em
I lived this way
C
He doesn't own me
G
He doesn't own me
C
He doesn't own me
Em
He doesn't own me
G
Just escape
C Em G
Arrows were falling
C G
Arrows were falling
C Em G
Arrows were falling
C G
Arrows were falling
G C
The black rinse align your face
Em C
Like a deer drinking water in a picture frame
G C
I swear to God I've seen those eyes
Em C
The back of my lids when closing mine
G C
With clasped hands we shake it out, shake it out,
Em C
Lay some boots and we walk away
G C
I felt slightly connected to him
Em G
And said now boy, now you own me
C Em G
Arrows were falling
C G
Arrows were falling
C Em G
Arrows were falling
C G
Arrows were falling
G C Em C
Yeah, yeah
G
He doesn't sleep
C
So in truth he never wakes up
Em
Another day rushing to his death
C
Out of breath on the treadmill of the famous
G C
He makes mistakes tells stories to his paintbrush
Em
And when the world finally sees his art
C
He wishes that he never would have made it
G C
Just escape, just escape ricochets
Em
And eclipses faith living in a city
With a grey umbrella over your shoulders
C
And you're becoming suffocated by the weight
G
Can't hit those breaks
This is what you wanted, huh
C Em
But you got it all in vein cause you forgot who you are
C
Right as the world learned your name it goes...
C Em G
Arrows were falling
C G
Arrows were falling
C Em G
Arrows were falling
C G
Arrows were falling
G
Let me ash my issues
C
Ashtray in this asphalt
Em
American spirits, black coffee
C
Conversations and a passport
G
When God gives you everything
C Em
Everything that you ever asked for and it still looks a bit different
C
Then when you pictured it on that back porch
G C Em
And I'm gone world traveller all I got is my songs
C G C
When the nights start blending into one another and I don't recall Tom Petty in this motherfucker
Em C
All I wanna do is free fall, yeah free fall
G C
And I'm so caught up, I'm caught up, I'm caught up
Em
And I'm so tired, swore that I wouldn't stare into the light
C
And guess who tried it
G
Shit I'm blinded by this lime light
C
This lime light, it's all night, it's all day
Em
These bright lights, these bright lights
C
Once you turn 'em on you can't walk away,
G
Don't die here, don't die here
C
I came too far, I'm too great
Em
But I'm too scared and I'm too afraid
C
To stare this world into its face
G
I'm almost home, I'm driving lost
C
My eyelids closed, light turns to grey
Em
The cameras off, the show is over
C
You close the curtains and just escape
G C G
Arrows were falling
G C
Arrows were falling
G C G
Arrows were falling

Arrows were falling
G
I live this way

I live this way
Em
I live this way

I live this way

I live this way
C
I live this way
Em
I live this way
