Tom : D
D G D G
[Verse 1]
D
Hey, I got pains inside of me
G
Pains I don’t let people see
D G
I say I’m fine cause I know they see me strong
D
Behind my eyes inside my soul
G
Feels like I’m digging a deeper hole
D
But I put on a smile
G
I lie and I hold on
[Chorus]
D
But when I get home and its late at night
Em
No ones around and I turn off the light
D G
I cry and scream and yell like crazy man
D
I don’t have to pretend that I’m doing well
Em
I can tell the world it can go to hell
D G D G
It’s just me and God when I take off the mask
[Verse 2]
D
They say you got so much going on
G
But in this crowd, I’m still alone
D G
But they don’t know cause I hold my head up high
D
There’s times I can’t get out of bed
G
I’m goin’ round and round inside my head
D G
That’s when I slip it on so I can hide
[Chorus]
D
And when I get home and its late at night
[Bridge]
G
I won’t give up, (I won’t give up)
Em
I won’t give in, (I won’t give in)
G
I won’t take it off
A
Still I’m with Him
[Chorus]
D
And when I get home and its late at night
