Tables Turned

FDone being a wall you lean against

AmJust needed some tGime so I could

FOpen up my wGindow

AmLet the air clear Cout my head

FThink how fast the Gyears go and aAmll the things I Cleft unsaid

FAnother old reGgret that I'll Amhide beneath my Cbed

I guess some dFistance was the best cGure for this

To tell the truth I never listen, just grit my teeth and split

It's just a matter of opinion when it comes down to it

So you can take your damn opinion

CI've had a steady stream of lonely nights

For the past few weeks in this rAoom

I'm locked away from it aGll

Just need a break from the wCalls that close me in

I'll see this out standing on pins

I'll fAall asleep with my eyes open

JFust Eto sCee if I could focus

On somCething more than my loneliness

None of my friends seem to give a sFhit about the way I am

I know full well they understand that

CI get myself way too deep in what she said

But they'll bAail me out when I'm Gin over my head

EI'm getting sick of beFing broke

CBut what's worse is I'm aGll on my own

ECan't seem to lFet this go

I wGish I could stop staring at the phone

ESo I can gFet some sleep

CAnother day, anotGher week in hell

EI'll see your fFace down here real soon

GA welcome home to a swift farewell

- verse 2:

COf all the things I hope to keep:

A chFildhood sense of opportunity

CGrab life by the wrist and jump

FTake the chance while I'm still young and dAumb

Passed out but on my feet

With yGears ahead to get some sleep

And Fso much time to face defeat

So write our names in wet concrete

To sAeal our place in space and time

BefGore we have to walk the line

BefFore we all move on in life

Before the sun comes up tonight

EI'm getting sick of beFing broke

CBut what's worse is I'm aGll on my own

AWe still talk like everyday

But we don't talk in the same way that Ewe used to

I'll move on and forget you, we could never sAee eye to eye

But either way.

AI like her 'cause C#5she's smarB5t, headstrong A5and independent,

She puts me in my C#5place, but I dB5on't know where IA5 stand,

And if only I could C#5find the words, or mE5usterB5 up the A5nerve to tell her

I'll never forget her and B5she'll always have a A5part of me.

EDon't let me go down this road agaiAn

We both know where this ends E

In a storm of feeling, I'm so unappealingA

I can't play these games

AI like her 'cause she's sC#5mart, headB5strong and indA5ependent,

She puts me in my C#5place, but I dB5on't know where IA5 stand,

And if only I could C#5find the words, or mE5usterB5 up the A5nerve to tell her

AIf a picture is all that I hEave

I can picture the times that we Dsus2won't get back

If I picture it now it don't F#mseem so bad

Either Eway, I still wish you were Ahere

Don't say everything's meant to Ebe

Cause you know it's not what I Dsus2believe

Can't help but think that it should've beenF#m me

Either Eway I still wish you were here

AEDsus2

Dsus2Thinking bAack on the days when we all used to Esay

"I know aDsus2nywhere's better than here"

In the bAack of the class, where we grew up too fEast

LivingDsus2 life like there's nothing to fear

But the Eice on the road, driving F#mhome all C#malone

Singing Dsus2along to a song from three summers ago

The one that mEade you remember it F#m

Losing Teeth

Key: DMedium

D#m

This is pretty straight forward. You can play all the chords as power chords on the same string if you find

it easier. It's simple and it sounds right. As with other Neck Deep songs it's jus the three chords.

If like me you're a little musically dim, D# is also Eb and C# is also Db.

BWe couldn't wait for the days to get longer,

BSpend nights sitting up, wasting away

BAll the shit that we did when we were younger,

Think back and it feels like yesterdD#may

We were Closing tBeeth,

Stayed up again last D#mnight, talk some sCense to me B

D#mSo it seems the tCime has come

To Bpack your bags, close your eyes and run like D#mI did,

If you Cdo it first I'll fBollow straight behind you

Cuz growing D#mold is a waste of tCime,

To say goodBbye is a waste of breath,

We'll stick it D#mout til the bCitter end B

CI remember every night that we spent on the eBdge,

The cold warmth and the bitter taste that it Cleft

Young, dumb, and carefree and reckless,

But Bthere's some method to the madness

B Passed out in the living room,

D#m Moved on but I'll see you soon,

B Bored now you're absent,

Back D#mhome there's still nCothing to do

B Though we complained about it

D#mAll was such a wCorthwhile waste of my tiBme,

Every day and each night a memory,

D#mTake care and pClease don't forget me

B Don't give a fuck what they have to say,

Cuz we'll just D#mdo it anywaBy,

And if I break a bone or it fries my D#mbrain,

We took a risk and Claughed at our mistBakes.

Give a fuck if we don't fit in!

We D#mdon't need them,

CThey don't know a tBhing about us,

All the times we shared

The D#mworld at our feet and in the wCind in our hair,

But D#msome things mCust change,

And as Bmuch as I hate it,

D#mIt kills me to sCay our goodbyBes as we turn the paD#mge andB

Move onto the next chapterD#m,

B And hope it won't hold disaster

CNow the world's so big it seems,

But the Bblank white walls won't let me breathe

And if the Cbig wide world caved in tonight, I'd sBee you on

The other side

B Passed out in the living room,

D#m Moved on but I'll see you soon,

B Bored now you're absent,

Back D#mhome there's still nCothing to do

B Though we complained about it

D#mAll was such a wCorthwhile waste of my tiBme,

Every day and each night a memory,

D#mTake care and pClease don't forget me
