Capo 3


Intro: Em - C - Em - C 

Em 
I've been living in and out of alcohol for so long now 
       C 
That every time I try to wrestle with the truth, I'm lost on how 
       Em 
I'm a liar and then some, I'm a cheater at best 
     C 
I'm sick of this wet noose around my neck 


           Em 
I'm going forwards, looking back 
        C 
On everything I never had 
            Em                            C 
Under the weight of all the qualities I lack 
Em 
And I know it's time to change 
              C 
It's time to finally act my age 
      Em                          -Pause- 
Make amends with everyone I pushed away 


                      C 
Don't leave me on my own 
                 Em 
Until I'm fully grown 
                           D 
I'm not gonna be the only one 

To reap what I don't sow 
                      C 
Don't leave me on my own 
                 Em 
I'm difficult I know 
                                    D 
But I really need a chance to be someone 

Someone I've never known 

Break: Em 

Em 
I've been living in and out of my own head for so long 
                    C 
I can't recall when I let my heart behind the wheel 
Em 
I'm a self-righteous hypocrite and I always think I'm right 
      C 
But still you're asking me to spend the night 


           Em 
I'm going forwards, looking back 
        C 
On everything I never had 
          Em                              C 
Under the weight of all the qualities I lack 
      Em 
And I know it's time to change 
               C 
It's time to finally act my age 
       Em                       -Pause- 
Make amends with everyone I cast away 



                      C 
Don't leave me on my own 
                 Em 
Until I'm fully grown 
                           D 
I'm not gonna be the only one 

To reap what I don't sow 
                      C 
Don't leave me on my own 
                 Em 
I'm difficult I know 
                                    D 
But I really need a chance to be someone 

Someone I've never known 


Am 
God bless you and good luck 
Em 
I can't stop you from giving up 
Am 
These things you do are not enough 
Em             -Pause- 
To save me, save me 


                      C (Single Strum) 
Don't leave me on my own 
                 Em (Single Strum) 
Until I'm fully grown 
                         D (Single Strum) 
I'm not gonna be the only one 
                    D (Single Strum) 
To reap what I don't sow 


Instrument/Solo: Em - C 


                      C 
Don't leave me on my own 
                 Em 
Until I'm fully grown 
                           D 
I'm not gonna be the only one 

To reap what I don't sow 
                      C 
Don't leave me on my own 
                 Em 
I'm difficult I know 
                                 D 
But I really need a chance to be someone 

Someone I've never known 


Em     
Oh no no 
       
Oh no no 
      C 
Oh no no 
Em 
Oh no no 

Oh no no 
       C                     -Pause- 
No no no, don't leave me on my own
