A7sus4 (picked throughout the intro)
don't be late
there's no time to be afraid
there's a way
to clean up the mess you've made

Am
if I could tell the truth
    G              D/F#
or lie would I attempt the two at the same time
Am                    G     
  expect you to apologize for trying
    D/F#            Am
to make me so up tight
Am                      Em7
  don't say it's just a game we play
I can't lose the taste

G      Am
if you regulate how the blood is pumping
                                        G
through the veins from my heart into my head
in time this blood supply
     D/F#
will change me from red to white
Am 
  every thought that you know I'm thinking
                                       G
may as well be the knife stuck in my back
G           D/F#           Am                   Em
this taxing fever makes me gravitate to this place

                 Am
this is still my life
    G          Am
not yours to define

Em      Am              D/F#             G
 (anyone in their right mind would never let you inside
Em      Am              D/F#
  anyone in their right mind)

    Em                        Am
I've broken ties with the neighborhood
D/F#              G           Em
feeling like a bum in the city
 Am        D/F#           G
  waking only to take a drink
          Em             Am
from an empty glass of nothing good
       D/F#           G              Em
then sinking like a stone in the sea
   Am       D/F#     G
without the oxygen I need

G
deciding as I wait for air to entertain
CM7     Em                 Em7
careful not to (to breathe in 3x)
G
the right time and the right way to elevate
CM7     Em                 Em7
careful not to (to breathe in 3x)
    G       A7sus4
to breathe in the air that so proudly puts to death
          G
my own Father's name
Gsus2 G                                Em7  G
I re--member when your hand started shaking
Gsus2     G
there's a better way
Gsus2    G                          Em7  G
to clean up the mess you've been making
