G                 G                Bm
     More so than me, She knows my name
              F                     C
And more so than me, Understands this pain
             G                    Bm
I'm either too lost, Or not lost enough
            F                          C
I think I'm too smart, For this type of love
              G                        Bm
I wasn't sent off, But straight to the ground
              F                     C  n.c.
And I know God best, Is one with no crown


[Verse 1]
                   G
Don't know why the past affects me in this way
                      Bm
Don't know where I'll go if I leave here today
              F
But I know my limits and you're not the type
               C
To be fooling around in this way
                                  G
No reason you're here but there's reasons to stay
                            Bm
Not as easy to know as it's easy to say
                           F
'Cause to my family and my friends I can't think of one thing
      C
That I gain


[Bridge]
             G
But more for me
         Bm
And more for me
   F
More
       C
For me


[Verse 2]
G
Age 14 at midnight I hear voices from the kitchen
  Bm
I let my feet follow the sound as I let my ears listen
  F
I walk upstairs and at the kitchen table I can see
            C
That God is sitting with the Devil, sharing drinks and old stories
               G
The floorboard creaks a red embarrassment floods all throughout God's face
               Bm
He swears that it's not what it looks like, then he swears he can explain
          F
The Devil speaks, "Your God and I put all our differences to rest
            C
Now man's actions are his own, but man will blame us nonetheless"
          G
The Devil stands, he grabs his keys and straightens out a rusted crown
            Bm
He tells me, "Hell is frozen over, Heaven burned down to the ground
             F
And you have only got one life, so do with it what you would like
         C
We solemnly apologize but we won't be there when you die"


[Chorus]
            G
And I stand cold and alone, in a body that won't move
F#m
Watching the eyes of these gods that I once knew
F
One pair looks down in a half-hearted lie while the
C
Other looks straight into mine with a whole truth
G
Lacking the fear I've been told that God deserves
F#m
I say, "What good is a prayer that goes unheard"
F
He says, "What hope could they find in a book
       C
If the book doesn't sell and the pages stay unturned"


[Instrumental]
G   Bm


[Verse 3]
    F
And with a wink, the Devil turns and exits the back door
           C
And God is standing there in silence with his eyes glued to the floor
            G
But then he speaks "I am no savior but I give them what they need
              Bm
And there has never been a dreamer who prefers reality
            F
The war for truth is raging on but it's not one you have to fight
          C
And if it is the truth you want, then it is hope you'll sacrifice
              G
It's yours to choose,
            Bm
And you can choose
F
This is not the way I am, this is just how I was raised
    C
So let me make up my own mind, let me map out my own way
    G
And to the parents of the kids with tongues down in their throats
           Bm
Because of tears that you will cry if they don't stick to what they know
                F
I'm sure you're giving it your best, and I am sure it takes a toll
            C
But whether God given or not, our lives are not to be controlled
            G
Just let us choose


[Outro]
G   Bm   F   C x3
