Biography:
Staind is an alternative metal band formed on November 24, 1995 in Springfield, Massachusetts, United States. After meeting through friends and covering pop hits of the day in smalltime clubs for a year and a half, Staind self-released their debut album, Tormented, in November 1996, citing influences in brutal latin thrash metal. Until recently, the album was difficult to obtain, as only four thousand copies were originally sold. Since then, the band's official website has released the album to meet the demand from fans.

--STAIND - FAILING--
This is my first time putting the chords on this site. I also have the electric version
on here, minus the lead. I'm almost 100% positive on the verses and chorus, but the
rest, not too sure.
Tuning: Standard (yes, these chords can be played in standard. If you've already detuned
a half step, just put a capo on the first fret if you have one. Or you can just
transpose them up a fret.)
INTRO:
D F#m D A
VERSE 1:
D F#m D A
Yeah, like the threat of the darkest clouds rolling in
On a sunny day.
D F#m E F#m
Yeah, like a field that has no rain.
D F#m D A
Yeah, like a dog that wanders aimless
With no name.
D F#m D F#m
Yeah, like a cut without the pain.
PRE-CHORUS:
D F#m E
(Yeah) You couldn't feel this!
D F#m E
You couldn't take the pain!
D F#m E
(Yeah) You couldn't live this!
CHORUS (words in parentheses implied but not sung):
D F#m E F#m D A
And I'm just trying to get through to you,
E
But I am failing.
F#m D A
(You) lie like I'm not even here.
E
My heart is breaking.
F#m D A
(I'm) trying to see through your stare.
E
It looks right through me.
F#m D A
(I) smile and pretend I'm not there,
E
To keep from going crazy.
INTERLUDE:
F#m E (x2)
VERSE 2:
D F#m D
Yeah, like the day that your guardian angel
A
Decided to fly away.
D F#m E F#m
Yeah, like a bruise that doesn't fade.
D F#m D
Yeah, like a memory that tortures your soul
A
Until your dying day.
D F#m E F#m
Yeah, like a life you couldn't save.
