Tom: D
[Intro] F#m Bm A
D F#m Bm A D F#m Bm A D F#m
Timber shakes these trails they all derail
Bm
Phony, false and frail
A D
An empty ocean lost our way with no direction home
F#m
Golden needles names we take in vein
Bm
Find it harder to remain
A
And nothings sacred still waiting on that explanation
D
Right before my eyes
[Refrão]
A
I saw the whole world lose control
Bm
The whole world lost control
G A
Before my eyes uh-huh
D
I fell through the floor
A
I couldn't take it anymore
Bm
I can't take this anymore
[Próxima Parte]
G A
It breaks my mind uh-huh
D F#m
Hold your dirty hand over the flames
Bm
Getting pleasure from the pain
A
Softly screaming the pistol that you raise has spoken
D F#m
Golden needles names we take in vein
Bm
Find it harder to remain
A
Well nothings sacred still waiting on that explanation
D
Right before my eyes
[Refrão] (repetir)
[Próxima Parte]
G A
It breaks my mind uh-huh
G Bm
Everything I thought I knew fell to the side
G Bm
Time went on and on I couldn't see past my own eyes
A
Past my eyes
Bm
Past my eyes
A
Past my eyes
D
Right before my eyes
[Refrão] (repetir)
[Próxima Parte]
G A
It breaks my mind uh-huh
