[Intro]

E5

[Verse 1]

    E5                  E/Eb 
The sum of all that I believed 
                     A        
turned out to be nothing but a 
                      E5
whisper in a breeze
           E5              E/Eb   
And I was lost in a meritocracy 
        A                        
now with nothing but the tunes to 
       E5
carry me
         C#m        B         
With the industry aswing in the 
   E               A
gallows that we made
         C#m               B      
They'll stumble round for someone 
         E
else to blame
Continues after the ad
       C#m             B          
There's no sense in believing that
      E                 A
 our wounds will never mend
C#m             B                 E
Gotta live our lives before they end

[Verse 2]

   G#5                A5          
So rat me out to the scene police 
                     E
cause I'd rather be living
E
Rather be living
     G#5                           
Well these are our friends they're 
       A5
not commodities
                 E
And don't you forget it
E
Don't you forget it
      C#m                 A       
For a scene that prides itself on 
        E             B
fun and doing it yourself
        C#m              B        
Sure do like to use our friends as
           A
 stepping stones
             C#m           A      
I guess the reason that I play is 
       E
to be free
          B          C#m       
From the risk of the ones on top 
   A           E5
shoving me below
