F       G                   Am
It's not hard to play the victim, ooh
F           G                 Am      G
When these scars belong to you
F      G             Am      G
I'm a walking contradiction
     F           G                        Am         G
To practice what I preach would be a heavy load to bare


[Pre-Chorus]
F     C            G
Novelty you and I
          Am  G    F
Have been unfamiliar
    C                G
And I don't know when
G      F          C              G
But I can't believe we've run dry
           Am       G    F
I let you steal my thunder
      C             B7
No reprieve for my mind


[Chorus]
      F           C
Paralyzed, paralyzed
           G               Am    G
I'm caught in the middle of voices
              F                  C
Pulling me far from where I'm able
                G                  Am   G
To stand in the light and walk without you
       F         C
Paralyzed, paralyzed
        G                  Am     G
I'm caught in the middle of choices
          F                                   B7
Pushing me far from where I'm stable, capsized

Paralyzed

[Verse 2]
F       G                   Am
Venture into dreams we hope for
F           G                 Am      G
But live in fear of truths we hide
F           G                    Am      G
To let them show would leave me open
     F           G                        Am         G
And I could not conceive a harder load to share


[Pre-Chorus]
F     C            G
Novelty you and I
          Am  G    F
Have been unfamiliar
    C                G
And I don't know when
G      F          C              G
But I can't believe we've run dry
           Am       G    F
I let you steal my thunder
      C             B7
No reprieve for my mind


[Chorus]
      F           C
Paralyzed, paralyzed
           G               Am    G
I'm caught in the middle of voices
              F                  C
Pulling me far from where I'm able
                G                  Am   G
To stand in the light and walk without you
       F         C
Paralyzed, paralyzed
        G               Am       G
I'm caught in the middle of choices
            F                                  B7
Pushing me far from where I'm stable, capsized

Paralyzed


[Bridge]
Am          G           F       C G
Fallen like darkness at night
Am            G   Em   B7
Feel it cloud over my eyes

[Interlude]
F     C

[Pre-Chorus]
         G
You and I
          Am  G    F
Have been unfamiliar
    C                G
And I don't know when


[Chorus]
      F           C
Paralyzed, paralyzed
           G               Am    G
I'm caught in the middle of voices
              F                  C
Pulling me far from where I'm able
                G                  Am   G
To stand in the light and walk without you
       F         C
Paralyzed, paralyzed
        G                  Am    G
I'm caught in the middle of choices
            F                                B7
Pushing me far from where I'm stable, capsized
