[Estrofa]
Em                D                                C 
Sometimes life it takes you by the hair, pulls you down, 
           D             G               D 
Before you know it, it's gone and you're dead again. 
Em                        D 
I've been in places and I won't pretend, 
         C           D       G          D 
That I'd make it out just to fall on my head.
[Estrofa]
Em                          D 
Which is strange I take the walk downstairs, 
        C              D          G          D 
Hit the pawn up on the corner and pay for my rent. 
Em                        D 
You know that I could not believe my own truth, 
     C                D           G          D 
Just show them what I choose, got nothing to lose.
[Estribillo]
Em                    D 
Yeah, yeah and it's okay, 
         C             D                G         D 
I tie my hands up to a chair so I don't fall that way. 
Em                   D 
Yeah, yeah and I'm alright, 
         C                D                 G       D 
I took a sip of something poisoned but I'll hold on tight.

[Estrofa]
Em                           D 
You know those days when you want to just choose, 
       C          D        G            D 
To not get out of bed, get lost in your head again. 
Em                           D 
You're playin' games but you kind of cut, 
              C           D 
'Cause you're coming down hard 
         G              D 
and your joints are all stuck.
[Estrofa]
Em                          D 
I've tried to say that it's not the only way, 
   C            D       G              D 
I never knew if I could face myself to change. 
Em                        D 
You were impatient, I was insecure, 
         C                 D 
Slip and fall, I'm dodging calls, 
       G                D 
In the prison I've been living in.
[Estribillo]
Em                   D 
Yeah, yeah and it's okay, 
         C             D                G         D 
I tie my hands up to a chair so I don't fall that way. 
Em                   D 
Yeah, yeah and I'm alright, 
         C                D                 G       D 
I took a sip of something poisoned but I'll hold on tight.

         C                D                 G       D
