[Intro] D Em D Em
[Verse 1]
D
Sam, the weak accomplice
Em
He knew he had a choice
D
He always startled easily
Em
With the sound of every voice
D
A pocket full of excess
Em
They take and take and take
D
Left him with a trigger pointed
Em
Staring at his shakes
D
And it goes on
Em
And it goes on
[Verse 2]
D
She was given nothing
Em
But their selfish lack
D
They sleep with one eye open
Em
Cause they know she's coming back
D
But she will wait her turn
Em
Absent from concern
D
The furnace inside her
Em
It burns and burns and burns
D
And it goes on
Em
And it goes on
[Chorus]
Em D
Weaklings never practice
Am
What they preach
C
They cower down below
Em
That's what you call defeat
D
And in their darkest hour
Am
It's hard to breathe
C
We try to catch up with the world
Em
But we're so far out of reach
D Em
We're so far out of reach
[Verse 3]
D
Leaning in the dark
Em
Stands this faked man
D
Slicing her with is words
Em
Always grabbing her with his hands
D
And it goes on
Em
And it goes on
Em D
Weaklings never practice
Am
What they preach
C
They cower down below
Em
That's what you call defeat
D
And in their darkest hour
Am
It's hard to breathe
C
We try to catch up with the world
But we're so far out of reach
[Bridge] Em D Am C(x2)
[Verse 4]
D
I wish I had warned you
Em
Of this broken path
D
With each step you take
Em
You know there's no turning back
[Chorus]
Em D
Weaklings never practice
Am
What they preach
C
They cower down below
Em
That's what you call defeat
D
And in their darkest hour
Am
It's hard to breathe

We try to catch up with the world
Em
But we're so far out of reach

We try to catch up with the world
Am
We try to catch up with the world
C
We try to catch up with the world
Em
But we're so far out of reach
D
We try to catch up with the world
Am
We try to catch up with the world
C
We try to catch up with the world
Em Let it ring
But we're so far out of reach
