[Verse 1]
D
 Well, I felt the burn
                                               G
Since the day you departed and talked from the tomb

I'm still healing those wounds
D
 And it holds me down

But made me a man that says
                G                      D
"Fuck all those rules, I will be who I choose"
              A
It's a lonely road
         Bm              G                          D
With one grip on several psalms and one grip on the gun
                 A
And it holds the rope
                 Bm                     G
That spins me in circles and dizzies my head
                              D
Then says, "Sleep when you're dead"

[Verse 2]
D                  A
  Were you ever here?
                    Bm                        G                        D
Or just lost on the surface that at the first touch just evades in the dust
                 A
And it pulled me down
                 Bm                   G                   D
And showed me my demons lined up in a sequence, forming a crowd
          A
It was so long
       Bm             G                                D
With a piece of happy home that they stripped from the bone
          A
I did not react
             Bm                      G
I settled my grievance by crafting a mask
                   D
And I never looked back

A Bm G
D A Bm G


[Bridge]
G                      A
Tell me what you know
       Bm          A         G
I'm in deeper than I've ever been
G            A
I will never grow
           Bm        A             G
While this anchor is chained to my feet
D G                   D A
Tell me what you know
       Bm          A         G
I'm in deeper than I've ever been
G                D A
I will never grow
           Bm         A             G
While this anchor is chained to my feet


[Outro]
G                    D A
Tell me what you know
             Bm           A          G
I settled my grievance by crafting a mask

And I never looked...
G                D A
I will never grow
             Bm           A          G
I settled my grievance by crafting a mask

And I never looked...
G                    D A
Tell me what you know
             Bm           A          G
I settled my grievance by crafting a mask

And I never looked...
G                D A
I will never grow
             Bm           A          G
I settled my grievance by crafting a mask
                   N.C
And I never looked back
