[Intro]
C Am C


[Verse 1]
C
Everything is wrong
    Am
Too much to put my finger
             Dm
on It's like I was born
   F            C
to piss it all away
      C
But I have to say it helped
    Am
Without your inspiration
        Dm
I could never be
    F           C
the mess I am today


[Refrain 1]
    Am     G
But lately I've been
      C     F
doing awful things
   Am
To keep me from
G            C  F
owning up to anything
    Am       G
But baby I'm changing


[Chorus 1]
        C              Am
For the sorry state of mind
     F
Will insulate my hair so
G
I never let nothing in it
    C                    Am
And maybe I'm out of my mind
       F
I have been a sorry state
G                         C    Am F Ab
Ever since you left me for dead


[Post Chorus]
C Am Dm F C


[Verse 2]
           C
You were a shirt I couldn't
         Am
change A bill I couldn't
                Dm
pay you were Forbidden
           F
fruit that I just had to
C             C
taste Oh I am tempted to
                Am
look back Oh if only for
           Am
only for a moment Just so
Dm            F
I can see the look
          C
upon your face


[Refrain 2]
    Am     G
But lately I've been
      C     F
doing awful things
   Am
To keep me from
G            C  F
owning up to anything
    Am       G
But baby I'm changing


[Chorus 2]
        C              Am
For the sorry state of mind
     F
Will insulate my hair so
G
I never let nothing in it
    C                    Am
And maybe I'm out of my mind
       F
I have been a sorry state
G                         C    Am F G
Ever since you left me for dead


[Bridge]
       F
I am a knife cutting
         Am
through space and time
        Dm        F
Editing out these awful
C       G/B       F
years A virgin it seems
               Am
untarnished by unpure
                Dm
things As if I imagined
                   Bb
every breathe it's all
                    F
just in my head The only
G
life that counts is
    G
the one I'm living now


[Chorus 3]
        D              Bm
For the sorry state of mind
     G
Will insulate my hair so
A
I never let nothing in it
    D                   Bm
And maybe I'm out of my mind
       G
I have been a sorry state
A                         D    Bm
Ever since you left me for dead
       G
I have been a sorry state
A
Ever since you left me
E/G#
Ever since you left me
G                          D
Ever since you left me for dead
