Arrows

         G
 My old man he kicked me out
              C
 He kicked me out
         Em                         C
 When I told him that I lived this way
    G                 C
 I lived this way, I lived this way
    Em                C
 I lived this way, I lived this way
    G                 C
 I lived this way, I lived this way
    Em
 I lived this way
C
 He doesn't own me
G
 He doesn't own me
C
 He doesn't own me
Em
 He doesn't own me
         G
 Just escape

C      Em     G
 Arrows were falling
C      G
 Arrows were falling
C      Em     G
 Arrows were falling
C      G
 Arrows were falling

G                  C
 The black rinse align your face
         Em                       C
 Like a deer drinking water in a picture frame
G                     C
 I swear to God I've seen those eyes
      Em                    C
 The back of my lids when closing mine
G                        C
 With clasped hands we shake it out, shake it out,
Em                      C
 Lay some boots and we walk away
G                    C
 I felt slightly connected to him
         Em       G
 And said now boy, now you own me

C      Em     G
 Arrows were falling
C      G
 Arrows were falling
C      Em     G
 Arrows were falling
C      G
 Arrows were falling

G C Em    C
   Yeah, yeah
G
 He doesn't sleep
         C
 So in truth he never wakes up
          Em
 Another day rushing to his death
                        C
 Out of breath on the treadmill of the famous
G                          C
 He makes mistakes tells stories to his paintbrush
               Em
 And when the world finally sees his art
             C
 He wishes that he never would have made it
         G                      C
 Just escape, just escape ricochets
                                 Em
 And eclipses faith living in a city
 With a grey umbrella over your shoulders
               C
 And you're becoming suffocated by the weight
                   G
 Can't hit those breaks
 This is what you wanted, huh
          C                               Em
 But you got it all in vein cause you forgot who you are
               C
 Right as the world learned your name it goes...

C      Em     G
 Arrows were falling
C      G
 Arrows were falling
C      Em     G
 Arrows were falling
C      G
 Arrows were falling

G
 Let me ash my issues
 C
 Ashtray in this asphalt
   Em
 American spirits, black coffee
        C
 Conversations and a passport
G
 When God gives you everything
        C                                    Em
 Everything that you ever asked for and it still looks a bit different
                C
 Then when you pictured it on that back porch
          G    C                               Em
 And I'm gone world traveller all I got is my songs
           C                                                    G        C
 When the nights start blending into one another and I don't recall Tom Petty in this 
motherfucker
                         Em              C
 All I wanna do is free fall, yeah free fall

                   G                             C
 And I'm so caught up, I'm caught up, I'm caught up
                                 Em
 And I'm so tired, swore that I wouldn't stare into the light
                 C
 And guess who tried it
                           G
 Shit I'm blinded by this lime light
                       C
 This lime light, it's all night, it's all day
         Em
 These bright lights, these bright lights
           C
 Once you turn 'em on you can't walk away,
        G
 Don't die here, don't die here
         C
 I came too far, I'm too great
          Em
 But I'm too scared and I'm too afraid
      C
 To stare this world into its face
     G
 I'm almost home, I'm driving lost
    C
 My eyelids closed, light turns to grey
      Em
 The cameras off, the show is over
       C
 You close the curtains and just escape

G      C      G
 Arrows were falling
G      C
 Arrows were falling
G      C      G
 Arrows were falling
G      C
 Arrows were falling

    G
 I live this way
    C
 I live this way
    Em
 I live this way
    C
 I live this way
    G
 I live this way
    C
 I live this way
    Em
 I live this way
    C            G
 I live this way
