[Verse 1]
       Am                E
As the walls are closing in
        Am             E
And the colors fade to black
       Am               E                     Am   E
And my eyes are falling fast and deep into me
      Am                             E
And I follow the tracks that lead me down
      Am                  E
And I never follow what’s right
         Am                             E
And they wonder sometimes when they see all the
            Am                       E
Sadness and pain the truth brings to light


[Chorus 1]
         F            G
’Cause I can’t see no reason
        E            F
What is blind cannot see
                      G
’Cause I want what is pleasin’
      E              F
All I take should be free
                    G
What I rob from the innocent ones
         E              F     Am    F     E
What I’d steal from the womb


[Post-Chorus 1]
     Am                  E
If I cried me a river of all my confessions
        Am                  E
Would I drown in my shallow regret


[Interlude]


[Verse 2]
       Am                E
As the walls are closing in
        Am             E
And the colors fade to black
        Am               E                          Am   E
And the night is falling fast and deep into the sea
       Am                      E
And in darkness all that I can see
    Am                 E
The frightened and the weak
    Am                 E
Are forced to cling to mistakes they know 
        Am                  E
Nothing of at mercy are the meek


[Chorus 2]
         F            G
’Cause I can’t see no reason
        E            F
What is blind cannot see
                      G
’Cause I want what is pleasin’
      E              F
All I take should be free
                    G
What I rob from the innocent ones
         E              F     Am    F     E
What I’d steal from the womb


[Post-Chorus 2]
     Am                  E
If I cried me a river of all my confessions
        Am                  E
Would I drown in my shallow regret
