An Attempt To Tip The Scales

        D               F#m
Did you expect it all to stop
        G            A
at the wave of your hand?
          D              F#m
Like the suns just gonna drop
          G         A
if it's night you demand.
       D                   F#m
Well, in the dark were just air  
      G                 A     
so the house might dissolve.
           D                  F#m            
once were gone, who's is gonna care
            G          A    
if we were ever here at all?

[Chorus]
G  
Well, summers gonna come
             A               F#m
it's gonna cloud our eyes again.

no need to focus
            G                  A
when there's nothing that's worth seeing.

[Verse 2]
       D                   F#m
So we trade liquor for blood
      G                 A  
in an attempt to tip the scales.
           D               F#m
I think you lost what you loved
         G         A   
in that mess of details. 

[Bridge]
                F#m                     
They seemed so important at the time
            G            
but now you can't even recall
    F#m              
any names, faces, or lines.
            G                A
Its more the feeling of it all.

[Chorus]
G          
Well, winter is going to end and
          A                    F#m      
I'm gonna clean these veins again.
                          G
So close to dying that I finally can
        A
start living.
