Dm F Bb F C

[Verse 1: Hannah Mee]
Dm                      C
Just about done livin' this life
F                            Bb
Look at my face when you're talking to me, talking to me
Dm                         C
Brought a blunt knife to a gun fight
F                     Bb
Words and phrases lock me in cages
    Dm                     C
I'm taking my time if it's alright
F                           Bb
Hold the world up but it's weighing on me, weighing on me
Dm                        C
Watch it all fall from a great height
F                       Bb
All these rats that are running races


[Pre-Chorus: Jim Shaw]
Dm    C         Bb
Stay away, you push me to the edge
          Dm    C       Bb
I need a tidal wave to drown out all the pain in me


[Chorus: Hannah Mee]
F                    C
Just about to break, I can't stand the taste of
Bb                       Dm            Bb
Candy coated lies, these candy coated lies
F                    C
Every day the same, driving me insane
Bb                       N.C.
Candy coated lies, these candy coated lies

[Verse 2: Jim Shaw & Hannah Mee]
        Dm                      C
You're killin' my vibe for the last time
Am                        Bb
Vultures up high started preying on me, preying on me
Dm                        C
Take a step back to the broadside
            F                    Bb
'Cause I'm not as brave as I'm letting on to be
Dm                       C
Losing my breath but I'm alive
 F                            Bb
Should have spent more time fighting for me, fighting for me
 Dm                   C
Making my way to the bright side
           Bb
Is there paradise?


[Chorus: Hannah Mee]
F                    C
Just about to break, I can't stand the taste of
Bb                        Dm           Bb
Candy coated lies, these candy coated lies
F                    C
Every day the same, driving me insane
Bb                       F
Candy coated lies, these candy coated lies

[Bridge: Jim Shaw]
Bb                        C
Talons digging deep down inside of me
              Dm                     F
Holding this absentee, guilty and desperately


[Chorus: Hannah Mee]
 F                   C
Just about to break, I can't stand the taste of
Bb                        Dm           Bb
Candy coated lies, these candy coated lies
F                    C
Every day the same, driving me insane
Bb                      N.C.
Candy coated lies, these candy coated lies
 F                   C
Just about to break, I can't stand the taste of
Bb                         Dm          Bb
Candy coated lies, these candy coated lies
F                     C
Every day the same, driving me insane
Bb                        Dm           Bb
Candy coated lies, these candy coated lies


[Outro: Jim Shaw, Hannah Mee]
Dm              F
Stay away, you push me to edge
Bb                        F
Candy coated lies, these candy coated lies
         Dm              F
I need a tidal wave, to drown out all the pain in these
Bb                        F
Candy coated lies, these candy coated lies
