C G C G
I moved myself west to find a philosophy
C G D
To learn my geography at best
Where the mountains are cold, the rain drops it's tears I'm told
Amongst the ashes a heart of gold, they say
Em C D
I guess it's best to imagine it that way
So I bought me a book to teach me the ways of God
To open my tarnished heart from it
Started praising the Lord, speaking in tongues and code
I did repairs on my broken road back home
I guess it's better than being alone

And now to death: I'm dying

To love: I'm trying
Em C
To God: I'm lying again
G
And to my Ma: I've failed you
D
To my Pa: I blamed you
Em D C
And to God: I have shamed you again
V2:
So I moved myself out, I pictured a better home
A lawn full of marigolds, I guess
I headed back east, started thinking my hope away
Depression was the one to stay since then
Now I take pills to push it from my head
Yes, I take pills to push it from my head
