Tuning: One Step Down (D  A  F  C  G  D)

Verse 1:
    Dm      A
When I look back
                           Bb
I miss the hope I used to have
                             Gm
The sense of passion and the meaning
                  Dm
Cause I'm not the same
                                    F
I'm not the one that plays the part
                                  Bb
Of a martyr with a broken heart.
                  C
Leaving me to be nothing
        Gm
So bury me
                   F       C          F
I used to feel something inside of me
Gm                      Am      Bb     C                  
     I used to feel something inside

Chorus 1:
Bb             F              C
     Now every time I pick myself up
       Dm
I just fall down faster
Bb                  F
     So what's the use of trying
C               Dm   C
To be something I'm not
Bb                   F
     I've still got hope that I can
C                 Dm     C
Fix this all with one disaster
Bb             F 
     I'll die alone
C                       Dm
     Ashamed without a note

Post-Chorus 1:  Dm   Bb   F     C     X2

Verse 2:
Dm        F
So look at me
                    Bb
What exactly do you see
                        Gm
A man who isn't what he once was
  Dm                             F
I hate myself but I'm to blame
                                        Bb
I fell in love with the state of shame
                  C
Leaving me to be nothing
                  
So bury me


Chorus 2:
Bb             F              C
     Now every time I pick myself up
       Dm
I just fall down faster
Bb                  F
     So what's the use of trying
C               Dm   C
To be something I'm not
Bb                   F
     I've still got hope that I can
C                 Dm     C
Fix this all with one disaster
Bb             F 
     I'll die alone
C                       Gm
     Ashamed without a note
         Am  Bb
I'll die alone
                   Gm
Ashamed without a note
                Am  Bb   C 
I'll die alone, alone... Oh…

Post-Chorus 2: Bm        C          F         C

Bridge - Part 1:
       Dm          F
I hang all my lies, on hooks with my art
   Bb              C
To show myself, a cowards heart
      Dm         F
Cause all I want, is to forgive myself
   Bb                 C
To burst inside, and bloom alive

Bridge - Part 2:
    Bb             F
The truth in me, is so blurry
    C
The lines have been my guide
    Dm
But I have drown all.......
  Bb              F
I bare with me, uncertainty
   C             Bb       C
My insecurities, redefine who...
 
      Dm
I hang all my lies
F
   On hooks with my art
   Bb               C
To show myself, to show myself

Chorus 3:
Bb             F              C
     Now every time I pick myself up
       Dm
I just fall down faster
Bb                  F
     So what's the use of trying
C               Dm   C
To be something I'm not
Bb                   F
     I've still got hope that I can
C                 Dm     C
Fix this all with one disaster
Bb             F 
     I'll die alone
C                       Dm
     Ashamed without a note
